Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman is expected to face a primary challenge in 2028, as discontent grows among some Democrats over his increasingly outspoken breaks with the party.
In a post on X, the Pennsylvania Working Families Party said it intends to mount a primary challenge against Senator Fetterman in 2028, vowing to recruit a candidate who can take on the Democrat.
“We’re primarying John Fetterman. Last week, Fetterman once again sold out working Pennsylvanians. He was the deciding vote for a Republican budget bill that will strip healthcare from over 400,000 Pennsylvanians. We deserve real working class leadership in the U.S. Senate,” the post read. The party has not yet fielded a candidate.
Earlier this month, Fetterman broke with most of his party, joining seven other Democrats and the full Republican conference to advance a funding measure that ended the 43-day government shutdown.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
