PA-03: Rabb (D) Enters Race
Pennsylvania state Rep. Chris Rabb (D-Philadelphia) announced that he is a candidate for the 3rd Congressional District seat to replace the retiring Rep. Dwight Evans.
“Working Philadelphians are being squeezed by the same corporate-backed status quo and political cowardice that have failed our community for generations,” he said in a statement announcing his candidacy. “I’m running because our communities deserve more than performative politics. I’m running because we must fearlessly build a government that delivers economic opportunities, dignity, and justice for all of us.”
Rabb was elected to the state House in 2016 and is currently serving in his fifth term in Harrisburg. He is a member of the Finance, Commerce, Agriculture and Judiciary Committees in the state House.
The self-declared “only progressive in the race,” he is joining an increasingly crowded field for the Democratic nomination with state Sen. Sharif Street, chair of the Pennsylvania Democratic Party, as well as former city government employee Robin Toldens and physician Dave Oxman.
