Another politician, House Representative Robert Brady also called producers to request the same.

The article definitely speaks about talks that were ongoing, but many involved had declined to elaborate. But what's clear in this situation, is that chaotic arguing from the unions, the non-unions, and residents has Philly in an uproar over BMPs Tuesday decision. As it stands right now, BMP has still stood by their decision to pull out of Philadelphia.
