Your last paragraph was telling and well put, and it really says it all.

The gridlock in our state government is due primarily to Democrats and Republicans in Harrisburg trying to do what is right for their respective parties, not what is right for their constituents. It is an ideological turf war that should be abandoned in favor of a cooperation that recognizes the needs of the state trump the needs of the party.

We need our lawmakers to be more pragmatically and less ideologically driven. You are right, Beth, Republicans and Democrats can work together…if they want to.
