The labor movement was born in Pittsburgh.

I'm Austin Davis, the Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania. As the son of a union bus driver, I was proud to walk with the laborers and countless other unions in the Pittsburgh Labor Day parade.

These men and women have built this city, our Commonwealth, and our country, and I'm proud as hell to stand with them every day.

It took more than 100 years of American innovation and union organizing to win the protections workers have today. However, after less than nine months in office, the Trump administration is rolling back worker rights and making workplaces more dangerous.

Vital protections are at risk as Trump slashes funding and fires workers who enforce federal workplace safety and wage laws and regulations. These cuts will have real consequences that hurt Pennsylvanians. We need to be expanding worker protections, not cutting them.

I promise to continue to advocate for the workers and unions who truly make our country great, but I need your support now. You can help me keep up the fight by chipping in to my re-election campaign today, John. Every dollar helps!

Thank you, John.

Lt. Gov. Austin Davis
