Three other Republicans from the Philadelphia suburbs -- U.S. Reps. Pat Meehan, Mike Fitzpatrick and Jon Runyan -- all also said Tuesday they would back a "clean" spending bill that funds the government without any other policy demands, as President Obama and Democrats have insisted on. U.S. Rep. Charlie Dent, a Republican from Allentown, backed that approach Monday, meaning five House Republicans from the area have now backed a change of course, though the GOP's most conservative bloc is pressing to continue the fight.
