HARRISBURG, PA – Democratic State House campaigns in Pennsylvania are being fueled by a groundswell of volunteer support to protect and expand “The People’s Majority” in Harrisburg. Today and through the weekend, big names are hitting the campaign trail in Pennsylvania to build on this momentum leading into Election Day. Actors and political heavyweights are rallying voters across the Commonwealth to support Vice President Kamala Harris and State House candidates who are crucial for holding and expanding the Democratic majority in the Pennsylvania House.


On Friday, actress Kerry Washington is stumping for Kamala Harris and State House candidate Hadley Haas, who has mounted an impressive campaign to unseat Republican incumbent Valerie Gaydos outside of Pittsburgh. Across the state, actor Adam Brody is in Chester and Delaware Counties with Governor Josh Shapiro to boost Elizabeth Moro’s campaign against vulnerable Republican State House incumbent Craig Williams. Both races are strong pickup opportunities for Democrats as they seek to add to their one-seat majority.


These and other surrogates will be rallying the hundreds of volunteers knocking for Pennsylvania State House candidates across the Commonwealth.
