By signing the pledge, Gingrich joins Governor Mitt Romney, Senator Rick Santorum, Governor Buddy Roemer, Chris Hill, Congressman Ron Paul, Congresswoman Michele Bachmann and Governor Rick Perry in pledging to commit to cutting taxes, fees and regulations; cutting spending and reducing the national debt; cutting the size of government at all levels; securing the nation’s borders; becoming energy independent within eight years; and faithfully and forcefully upholding, following and protecting the United States Constitution.

Tom has invited all the presidential candidates to sign his pledge.

A crowd of nearly 200 people came out to Saint Anselm College on Oct. 13 for a discussion on the current fiscal crisis as well as the electoral system and New Hampshire's status as "first in the nation."

The event took place at the N.H. Institute of Politics. Six panelists facilitated the conversation which came before appearances from presidential candidates Buddy Roemer, Fred Karger and Jon Huntsman.

One of those panelists was Corey Lewandowski, who serves as the N.H. State Director of Americans for Prosperity. He criticized what he called the "increasing notion" that a candidate's money is respected more than a candidate's ideas during election time.
Lewandowski also discussed the potentially disastrous problems that Washington is facing.

WINDHAM - Americans for Prosperity New Hampshire is sponsoring a forum today entitled “Solving Our Fiscal Crisis: What’s Wrong with Washington?” The event will include remarks from several presidential candidates as well as a panel discussion to examine how to best solve the fiscal crisis currently facing the nation.

“Americans for Prosperity New Hampshire is pleased to serve as a sponsor of this important discussion,” said Corey R. Lewandowski, State Director of Americans for Prosperity -New Hampshire. “We hope that this will serve as a starting point for many similar conversations on these issues which affect Americans on a day-to-day basis.”
