In response to this evening's election results, PFT President Jerry Jordan issued the following statement:
PHILADELPHIA—"Voters of Pennsylvania have made their voices heard, and John Fetterman's decisive victory leaves us confident in our optimism about our path forward for our great commonwealth.
"Throughout a grueling campaign and a life-threatening health scare, the fortitude and determination demonstrated by John Fetterman and his family is a testament to their commitment to our collective futures.
"John Fetterman stands for so many of the things we fight for every day. He is an unabashed supporter of the union way of life. Voters saw through his opponent's attempts to swindle the people of our Commonwealth. A fraudulent charlatan, his opponent's lies were overcome by the facts and the truth.
"Over the course of the last few months, PFT members have been deeply engaged in the electoral process, because they have intimately known exactly what is at stake in this election. John Fetterman's advocacy and vote in the Senate will not only be essential for the future of Pennsylvanians but for the entire nation.
"John Fetterman will be a Senator for all of us, and on behalf of our 13,000 members, I am delighted to congratulate him on his victory."
