IBEW Local 98, one of the most politically active unions in
Pennsylvania, plans to hand U.S. Rep. Allyson Schwartz a $100,000 check
Wednesday night as it endorses her candidacy in the Democratic primary for
governor.
The union, led by its influential manager business manager
John J. Dougherty, announced its endorsement decision ahead of a fundraiser it
is hosting for Schwartz at the union hall in the Spring Garden section of
Philadelphia Wednesday night.
“It is great to receive such an important endorsement from
hard working men and women in Philadelphia,” Schwartz said in a statement. “As
Governor, I will make representing the interests of working families one of our
Commonwealth’s highest priorities.”
