New Pennsylvania Project is proud to support the three PA Supreme Court Justices standing for retention this November 4th.

We agree with the PA Bar Association's recommendation of these Justices, and encourage you to vote YES on all three - for another ten year term.

Judges and justices don't wear red or blue robes. They wear black robes, for the people and the words in the PA Constitution.

The PA Supreme Court is working for the people

On September 24th, founding CEO Kadida Kenner spoke at a "Stop Yass" rally, protesting billionaire Jeffrey Yass, mentioning what's at stake in this year's judicial election.

If we let billionaires rig the courts, working people will be locked into a system designed to protect corrupt politicians and their wealthy donors–a system that sells out workers, slashes wages and hands sweetheart deals to the rich while the rest of us pay the price.

Catch the recap reel here.

On Monday, October 13th, founding CEO Kadida Kenner attended a "Mondays @ McCormick's" protest rally. 

"Mondays @ McCormick's" happen each Monday at noon, rain or shine, where we assemble peaceably (as is our constitutional right) outside Senator McCormick's Philadelphia office.

These rallies will meet weekly until Senator McCormick agrees to meet with us and support our demands:

  • Stop voting for legislation inspired by Trump's project 2025 agenda - a plan to slash Medicaid, gut school lunch programs, and shut down nursing homes while handing more power to billionaires like Elon Musk.

  • Roll back Trump's unconstitutional funding pauses. Shutting down USAID is already killing people in need all over the World. Cuts to programs here in the US could do the same. Funding for these programs are up to the Congress and the US people to decide, not Trump!
 

Everything we do, from hosting town halls and producing podcasts to knocking on doors, expands Pennsylvania's electorate by engaging Pennsylvanians to be civically involved and encouraging them to turn out to vote twice a year, none of it would be possible without you.
