PDA IS PROUD TO ENDORSES DONNA EDWARDS IN MARYLAND’S 4th CD
Progressive Democrats of America has endorsed Democratic candidate Donna Edwards in Maryland’s 4th district congressional race. Edwards, an attorney and lobbyist for non-profit groups, is running to “return the voices of ordinary people back to the Democratic Party.”

PDA Executive Director Tim Carpenter believes the Edwards candidacy sends a message to Democratic Party leaders. “Any Democrat who continues to support this illegal and immoral war must be held accountable,” he says. “If Democrats want to lead this country again, Democrats need to take the lead on getting our troops out of Iraq.”

Edwards is executive director at the Arca foundation, where she has led campaigns to support a living wage, protect social security, support international labor and human rights, ensure an independent judiciary and end capital punishment.”

Donna Edwards’ decision to run was a result of her opponent drifting away from Democratic principles. “Our current representative in Congress consistently votes against the interests of ordinary Americans, casting his lot with Bush and the Republicans on such critical issues as Iraq, the industry lobbyist-written energy bill, and the bankruptcy bill.”
