ABC Keystone Announces 2026 PAC Legislative Endorsements
ABC Keystone Chapter’s political action committee (PAC) is pleased to announce its endorsed candidates for governor and the Pennsylvania General Assembly in this fall’s election.
PA ABC PAC, the chapter’s political arm, evaluates incumbent lawmakers and candidates for office based on their support for Pennsylvania’s construction industry and the merit shop philosophy. PAC leaders review lawmakers’ voting records and interview candidates for open seats before endorsing those who champion a level playing field for all Pennsylvania construction workers.
These endorsements cover state legislative districts across the 35-county region ABC Keystone serves, representing nearly 40,000 construction workers.
G. David Sload, President-CEO of ABC Keystone, said, “Our organization is committed to advocating for a level playing field in business and for construction projects to be awarded on merit to the most qualified, price-competitive contractor. We believe these endorsed candidates support the policies and values needed to expand Pennsylvania’s skilled-trades workforce and create rewarding construction careers. We believe these individuals are the leaders Pennsylvania needs at a critical time to rebuild our aging infrastructure and inspire a new generation to enter the skilled trades.”
