Term Limits announces that former State Senators Andrew Dinniman and John
Eichelberger, Jr., have agreed to be the Pennsylvania State
Co-Chairs for U.S. Term Limits. Dinniman, a Democrat and
Eichelberger, a Republican bring a bipartisan approach to an issue
that over 80% of Pennsylvanians regardless of political affiliation
support – term limits for Congress. They have both seen
first-hand the need for term limits at the federal level and will
work tirelessly in their role as Pennsylvania State Co-Chairs to
see that Pennsylvania adopts a
resolution for term limits.
"I am very honored to be serving with John as the Pennsylvania
State Co-Chair for U.S. Term Limits," said Andy Dinniman. "In this polarized

issue that all Americans agree on. I look forward to working
with John to see that Pennsylvania
adopts a resolution calling for congressional term limits."
"I am glad to be working with Andy again on an issue that is of
paramount concern for all Americans," said John Eichelberger. Term limits is truly a
bipartisan idea.
"We are honored to have Andy and John leading our efforts in
Pennsylvania to pass term limits
on Congress," said Philip Blumel,

understand the problems within Congress and the need for term
limits. Under their guidance, I am confident we will get our
term limits resolution passed in Pennsylvania."
