Washington D.C. – People For the American Way announced today that it is proud to endorse Keir Bradford-Grey, former chief public defender for Montgomery County, in the Democratic primary for Pennsylvania Attorney General. If elected, she would be the first Black attorney general in Pennsylvania, and the first to have gained most of her legal experience as a public defender.
“We are excited to endorse Keir Bradford-Grey in the race for attorney general,” said People For the American Way President Svante Myrick. “Throughout her career as a public defender and as head of the Defender Association of Philadelphia, she has dedicated herself to ensuring that our justice system upholds the rights of everyday Pennsylvanians. We know she will bring a much-needed perspective and rock-solid values to the attorney general’s office, where she will fight for equal justice for all every day.”
“I’m honored to be endorsed by People For the American Way,” said Keir Bradford-Grey. “I have devoted my career to protecting the rights of the people of Pennsylvania, including our underserved and underrepresented communities, and to meaningful policies that make us all safer. It would be a great honor to continue my service as attorney general, and I want to thank People For the American Way and its many members in Pennsylvania for their confidence in me.”
