Our coalition of cities, counties and municipal governments represents over 55 million people from
more than half the states in the nation. Our immigrant populations are part of the economic and cultural
fabric of our communities, yet the justice they seek has been put on hold. Adding any delay in
considering a new nominee will further deny a resolution for the future of their families.
The Senate has a responsibility to act, both under the oath they have sworn and to the people for whom
they have pledged to work. Your willingness to meet this responsibility is not just a test of your
commitment to fulfill the duties of your job, but your fidelity to the democratic values that are at the
heart of our nation and our countrys history.
Thus we respectfully request that you embrace the role of leadership that the people of this country have
entrusted in you, and promptly consider the Presidents nominee to the Court without obstruction or
undue delay.
Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter,
Ed Pawlowski, Mayor of Allentown, PA
