DLCC Announces Latest Targets in Pennsylvania

WASHINGTON—Today, the DLCC rounded out our slate of Target Races in Pennsylvania, announcing nine House candidates to protect the slim Democratic majority and three Senate candidates to build power in the chamber. The launch of these 12 races follows the DLCC’s announcement of our first 50 Target Races, which included 10 races in Pennsylvania. As the GOP turns up the heat on their effort to gerrymander themselves into a permanent congressional majority, building state legislative power in states like Pennsylvania is crucial.

Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee President Heather Williams issued the following statement:

“Pennsylvania is one of the toughest battlegrounds in the country, and the DLCC is going all in to capitalize on this once-in-a-generation opportunity to build durable Democratic power in the state. These Target Race candidates have launched strong campaigns that can build on Democrats’ recent successes in the Keystone State, from stellar candidate recruitment to defying the odds in special elections. The DLCC has now identified 22 impressive candidates across the state who are laser-focused on helping families and lowering costs, and we will be with them every step of the way to transform the trajectory of Democratic power in Pennsylvania.”

The DLCC’s latest slate of Pennsylvania Target Races includes:

House:

Bryan Allen (HD-18)
Dr. Arvind Venkat (HD-30)
Brad Chambers (HD-41)
Brittany Bloam (HD-45)
Sara Agerton (HD-88)
Jessica McClay (HD-121)
Jeff Warren (HD-137)
Kristin Egan (HD-142)
Tim Hayes (HD-143)

Senate:

Eileen Hartnett Albillar (SD-06)
Chris Thomas (SD-24)
Brian Wrightson (SD-40)
