PLANNED PARENTHOOD PA PAC ENDORSES ITS FIRST ROUND OF SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH CARE CHAMPIONS FOR ELECTION

For Immediate Release: March 8, 2024 (Updated: March 8, 2024, 6 a.m.)


(Pennsylvania) - Planned Parenthood PA PAC today endorsed its first round of candidates for election in 2024, more than 100 candidates for legislative seats.

“Abortion is on the ballot in every election, the future of every aspect of sexual and reproductive health care is at stake; voters have to know which candidates stand firmly on the side of their rights,” said PP PA Political Director Adam Hosey. “We know that abortion remains top of voters' minds, less than 2 years after the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs that left states entirely on their own to defend their rights. We are proud to endorse over 100 demonstrated champions on our issues as they run for re-election, and outspoken advocates who are ready to take on these battles in the legislature.”
