Working Families Party Launches 'Primary Fetterman' Site to Organize 2028 Challenge

The push targets Fetterman's breaks with progressives.

Overview

  • The new hub features opposition research, volunteer sign-ups and a donor refund request form, with the party planning a digital ad campaign to drive traffic.
  • The Working Families Party says its initiative, begun in November, has attracted more than 425 sign-ups from prospective candidates, volunteers and donors.
  • The effort stems from disputes over Fetterman's votes and positions, including support for a Republican budget bill the group says will raise premiums for 500,000 Pennsylvanians, along with high-profile breaks on Trump, Israel and the 2025 shutdown.
  • Reporting indicates the website is financed by the Working Families Party PAC.
  • Fetterman has publicly downplayed the threat, and no Democratic challenger has formally entered the race.
