Labor unions cross the aisle to support Dugan for DA

A coalition of Philadelphia’s most influential labor organizations — including some with a long history of backing Democrats — gathered this morning in solid support of Judge Pat Dugan’s campaign for District Attorney, marking a seismic shift in the city’s traditional electoral politics.

The press conference, held at the Local 22 Union Hall, featured passionate endorsements from leaders of public safety, transport, and trade unions, all rallying behind Dugan over the embattled incumbent, Larry Krasner, whose tenure has been dogged by persistent scandals and growing frustration within union ranks.​
