This endorsement is part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/democraticredistricting.com\/democracydefenders\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NDRC\u2019s Democracy Defenders program<\/a>, a campaign supporting candidates running for state-level offices critical to safeguarding and strengthening democracy.<\/p>\n<p>Eric H. Holder, Jr., the 82nd Attorney General of the United States and Chairman of the NDRC, released the following statement endorsing Ana Tiburcio and Jen Mazzocco for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe stakes of next week\u2019s special election are incredibly high, and they will determine whether Pennsylvania\u2019s House of Representatives maintains a pro-democracy majority, or if it slides back toward MAGA extremism. In stark contrast to Pennsylvania Republicans, who are beholden to powerful special interests at the expense of working people, Ana Tiburcio and Jen Mazzocco will put Pennsylvania\u2019s working families first.
