JONATHAN LOVITZ ENTERS 2022 WELL-POSITIONED TO WIN PA HOUSE DISTRICT 182 RACE

For Immediate Release

Philadelphia, PA – Center City community leader and experienced legislative advocate Jonathan Lovitz is entering the new year with the support and resources needed to win in the upcoming May primary election.

“My passion for public service and taking care of my neighbors is rooted in a belief that when we all do better, we all do better.  I am so grateful for the hundreds of donors and supporters across PA and throughout America who have joined our movement. They have seen me deliver on my promises, and know I will keep on delivering for them ahead. That is why I dedicate myself– in this election and far beyond– to fighting for the safety and protections of all workers, and an affirmation of the power and necessity of unions; affordable and inclusive healthcare; essential services for our seniors and veterans; gun-free, fully-funded schools; supporting our arts and culture institutions; preserving our environment; and protecting Philadelphians’ voice in government by protecting their vote,” said Lovitz.

Among the elements propelling the Lovitz for PA campaign since its launch into 2022 are his achievements of: 

The MOST ENDORSEMENTS, including being the only candidate with labor union support. Labor leader Ryan Boyer and Laborers’ District Council were the first to support Lovitz’ campaign, followed by the first-ever endorsement by Philadelphia Musicians’ Union Local 77.  Dozens of elected officials, business leaders, advocacy luminaries, and artists have announced their steadfast support of Jonathan’s candidacy.  Congressman Ritchie Torres, with whom Lovitz has authored multiple pieces of local and federal legislation, said “”I’ve seen firsthand his dedication in the rough and tumble of politics…[T]here is no one who fights harder for our communities than Jonathan Lovitz.”

The MOST LEGISLATIVE AND CONSTITUENT SERVICE EXPERIENCE, making him ready on day one to get to work on behalf of his constituents in the State Capitol. In the last five years, Lovitz has been responsible for writing and passing more than twenty-five state and local laws, including right here in Pennsylvania, opening up billions of dollars in contracts and economic development to small business owners, including minorities, veterans, those with disabilities, and LGBTQ-owned entrepreneurs. In this time, Jonathan has been honored by organizations throughout Pennsylvania and across America for his leadership on issues including saving small businesses, fighting for equality, and advocating for anti-violence and civic engagement.

The MOST COMMUNITY & BUSINESS SUPPORT of anyone in this race: with over 600 donors representing every community and constituency in his district, Lovitz’s message and experience clearly resonate with the public. As the nation’s official LGBTQ news outlet of record in the White House Press Corps, The Washington Blade, said in its endorsement: “Voters, donors, and our national advocacy organizations should support his bold campaign and help retain an out LGBTQ voice in Harrisburg while improving constituent service for residents of the district…  Lovitz stands out as the strongest choice.”

Lovitz is drawing on over a decade of experience passing bipartisan legislation that helps working families and small business owners, bringing communities together to solve problems, and improving the relationships between the people and their government.

“Public service is at the core of who I am and the work I’ve been honored to do for so many years. The fact that we are approaching the primary with so much support from Philadelphia and across the nation signals that seeking to help people is the message voters and advocates want to hear. From unions to business owners to teachers to community leaders, my neighbors in Philadelphia are fired up and ready to work with me to make a difference,” added Lovitz.

Jonathan is running to represent the people of Center City Philadelphia in Harrisburg by continuing to use his advocacy, policy, and legislative skills to further listen to, fight for, and care for his Philadelphia neighbors. As Jonathan always says, “Let’s make a difference!”
