President Rick Bloomingdale and Secretary-Treasurer Frank Snyder made the following statements:

"Pennsylvania needs a Governor who understands that we cannot return to the old normal.  Josh Shapiro's bold vision for our Commonwealth is a new day for working people. He will fight for an honest day's pay for an honest day's work. As Governor, Josh will defend and expand the right to organize and join a union. When working people come together, Josh Shapiro will have our back," stated President Rick Bloomingdale.
