Pennsylvania progressives are eying former Rep. Conor Lamb as their counter to Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), who could face a primary challenge during the 2028 election after breaking with some progressive agenda items.
Lamb’s invitations to town halls across the state and praise from disgruntled progressives as an alternative to Fetterman could catapult him back into office after losing a 2022 primary election to the senator. Progressives’ support for Lamb marks a striking reversal of fortune for the former congressman, who has moved to the Left after being viewed as the centrist alternative to the “socialist” Fetterman during their primary battle three years ago.
