Happy birthday, Charlie Dent! You've spent many years expertly navigating the halls of Congress—proving one can indeed survive politics with dignity and a sense of humor intact. Representing Pennsylvania's 15th district since your election to the House in 2005 is impressive enough—but managing bipartisan achievements amidst today’s political environment deserves cake (or maybe two).It seems today's politicians often forget how much common ground actually exists—you've been there time after time reminding everyone collaboration never goes out of style. Here's wishing you another year filled with success, laughter—and fewer long-winded speeches from colleagues on Capitol Hill!
