Federal

Lt. Governor John Fetterman believes that all people deserve to have access to the resources, opportunities and respect they need to be able to determine our own path in life. As a lifelong Pennsylvanian dedicated to public service, Fetterman will fight to ensure we all have the tools we need to thrive: health care, housing, education, a living wage, a healthy environment and equal protection of our rights and freedoms. He’s pledging to be the deciding vote in D.C. ensuring there is real action to make our tax system more fair, lower costs for everyday Pennsylvanians, and tackle challenges we’re facing on health care, climate change and voting rights.

Fetterman’s opponent is Memhet Oz, a multimillionaire celebrity TV doctor who moved to PA from New Jersey for his own ambition. He’s profited from the promotion of fake miracle cures and misinformation throughout his television career. Oz is a conman who has changed his position on every important issue just so he can play the role of an extreme Maga Republican.

Pennsylvania’s next U.S. Senator should be a real Pennsylvanian, who shares our values and knows what everyday Pennsylvanians need from Washington.

We recommend John Fetterman to represent the best interests of Pennsylvania in the U.S. Senate.

Statewide Races

Attorney General Josh Shapiro and State Rep. Austin Davis are the Democratic nominees for Governor and Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania. Through a career in public service, Josh Shapiro took on big fights and delivered results everywhere he served. Davis has been a relentless advocate for his working class district as the son of a bus driver and hairdresser.

Josh Shapiro and Austin Davis will fight to protect all Pennsylvanians and their rights and freedoms. Together, they will work to improve education, create employment opportunities, support small businesses and working people, protect the environment, and strengthen our communities to make life in Pennsylvania better for everyone.

Shapiro’s opponent, Doug Mastriano is an extreme MAGA Republican, an insurrectionist and a threat to Pennsylvanians’ freedoms and futures. He has spread and promoted the Big Lie and attended the January 6 attack on the United States capitol, even crossing police lines. He is opposed to marriage equality and gay adoption. As Governor his top priorities would be to ban abortion with no exceptions, drastically cut public school funding, roll back accountability on big corporations and fossil fuel companies, and make it harder for workers to join a union.

We recommend Josh Shapiro and Austin Davis to serve the best interests of Pennsylvania as Governor and Lt. Governor.

4th Congressional District

Democratic Rep. Madeleine Dean has held her current office since 2019. Dean grew up in Glenside, Pennsylvania and got her start arguing politics around the dinner table with her five brothers and older sister. After college, she went to law school and practiced law in Philadelphia. Eventually, she opened a small three-woman law practice. While she was raising her three kids, she switched careers and began teaching English at LaSalle University.

In Washington, the majority party in Congress dictates the bills and spending passed to help or hurt Pennsylvania. It is in the best interest of Pennsylvanians for the current Democratic majority to stay in control of the agenda in Washington. The current majority in Congress has accomplished significant progress over the last two years, including a vital pandemic relief package, a historic bipartisan infrastructure bill, the first gun safety bill in decades and the Inflation Reduction Act to lower costs, create jobs, and grow the economy.

The most recent Republican majority did deep damage to the country from 2017 to 2018, including exacerbating income inequality and the ability of many Pennsylvanians to afford the cost of living.

We recommend Madeleine Dean as the choice in the best interest of Pennsylvania.

Senate District 12

In the state legislature, the majority party has absolute control over the legislative and budget process, including what bills are given a vote and what spending priorities are made. For the last generation, nearly a quarter century, the Republican party has had near complete control of the General Assembly.

In that time, the legislature failed to respond to the most pressing needs of our Commonwealth. They have become even more extreme and push divisive bills rather than working across the aisle to get things done for Pennsylvania. The GOP majority refused to vote on bills to end price gouging and lower costs for everyday Pennsylvanians. They are trying to ban abortion and limit our right to vote in free and fair elections. They failed to address decades of crippling property taxes or fully fund our public schools.

A new majority controlled by the Democratic Party would be a breath of fresh air. That majority would prioritize a living wage for every Pennsylvanian, pass paid leave for all workers, provide funding for our schools and communities, and protect our rights and freedoms.

We recommend Maria Collett as the choice in the best interest of Pennsylvania.
