EMILYs List, the nation’s largest resource for women in politics, endorsed Keir Bradford-Grey for Pennsylvania attorney general on Thursday morning.

Bradford-Grey, 48, is one of four Democrats who have announced their candidacy for the position, while one candidate has stated his intention on the GOP ledger.

“Keir Bradford-Grey has spent over two decades of her life fighting for the vulnerable, taking on big corporations, delivering results, and protecting our rights,” said EMILYs List Vice President of State and Local Campaigns Sarah Curmi in a statement. “As Pennsylvania Republicans continue to work overtime to take away reproductive freedoms, we need Democratic pro-choice champions like Bradford-Grey standing in the gap, ensuring that Pennsylvanians will always have the ability to determine the course of their lives, their families, and their futures. EMILYs List is proud to endorse Bradford-Grey, and we know she will truly be an attorney general for the people.”

The former head of Philadelphia’s public defense lawyers, Bradford-Grey was Montgomery County’s chief public defender and was recruited for the position by then-commissioner Josh Shapiro, who was about to become chair of Montco’s three-person board.

“I am running for Attorney General to fight for the same values I’ve championed for decades: fairness, opportunity, and justice,” she said. “As the Chief Defender in Philadelphia and Montgomery Counties, I’ve seen firsthand the issues facing Pennsylvanians, and I am ready to continue the fight.”

If elected, she would become the first Black attorney general in Pennsylvania, as well as the first attorney general whose legal experience was primarily as a public defender.

Other Democrats in the race include former Pennsylvania Auditor General Eugene DePasquale, former Bucks County Solicitor and federal prosecutor Joe Khan and Rep. Jared Solomon (D-Philadelphia), while York County District Attorney David Sunday is the lone Republican to announce his candidacy.
