Electing pro-worker judges is how Pennsylvanians win! Congrats to the @paafl-cio.bsky.social and PA working families for protecting the progress unions have fought for and won for working people for generations to come.
BREAKING: Pennsylvania voters approve to retain three state Supreme Court justices, NBC News projects, preserving Democrats’ 5-2 majority on the state’s high court.
