Rep. Donna Edwards, PDA Endorsed Candidate

Rep. Donna Edwards represents Maryland’s Fourth Congressional District. She is the first African American woman from Maryland to serve in Congress. Progressive Democrats of America (PDA) supported her bids to unseat the incumbent in 2006 and 2008—the former a narrow-loss, the latter a resounding victory—and in her 2010 re-election campaign. She is a member of the PDA Advisory Board, and a leader on several progressive issues. Rep. Edwards sponsored a Constitutional Amendment to roll back corporate power. Daily Kos has also supported Rep. Edwards' campaigns, along with the National Organization for Women, MoveOn, Democracy for America, SEIU, and several other organizations and unions.
