Pennsylvania Primary Victory!

The May 21 Primary Election was a victory for CWA members, union members, and working families in Pennsylvania! CWA District 2-13 members made thousands of calls and knocked on doors to elect pro-labor candidates in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh –and it worked. We re-elected our pro-labor mayor Jim Kenney in the Philadelphia Democratic Primary, and an entire slate of candidates who put workers first in our cities.
