Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman is likely to face a primary challenge in 2028 from the Pennsylvania Working Families Party due to his increasing divergence from Democratic Party positions. The group cited Fetterman’s vote on a recent budget bill, which would have potentially stripped healthcare from many Pennsylvanians, as a key reason for the challenge.

This potential primary challenge highlights the growing tension between party loyalty and progressive priorities within the Democratic Party.
