Allow The Bankruptcy Option For Harrisburg

Bankruptcy is a tool that should be allowed for Harrisburg and other municipalities in Pennsylvania to help with their fiscal difficulties. We the undersigned urge the Pennsylvania Legislature and Governor Corbett not to pass or sign any laws dealing with the prohibition on municipal bankruptcy to extend past the current one of June 30, 2012.

Why is this important?

As you know, last year, the State Legislature passed and Governor Corbett signed a law that prohibited the City of Harrisburg from filing for bankruptcy. Bankruptcy is a tool that should be allowed for Harrisburg and other cities. Sign this petition to tell the legislature and Governor Corbett that you don't support the continued prohibition on bankruptcy for Harrisburg and other cities in Pennsylvania.
