Kristin Egan

Kristin Egan is a teacher, school board director, and former union leader from Bucks County running this fall to flip a seat in the Pennsylvania House. Kristin has served as a public school English teacher for over 20 years, dedicating her career to advocating for students and their families. After decades of working directly with Pennsylvania families, Kristin is ready to be a strong champion in Harrisburg for greater access to education and health care, while fighting to lower the cost of living.

For years, Republicans have represented House District 142 and failed to stand up for their constituents. Now, Kristin is challenging the status quo with the support of the DLCC’s Target Races program and is running to give her community strong representation and help Democrats expand their majority in the Pennsylvania House.

2026 is a historic opportunity to build power in Pennsylvania by defending our House majority and picking up Senate seats in this key battleground state. After several cycles of hard-fought gains, DLCC is committed to winning and defending Democratic power in Pennsylvania.

Our work this year begins with defending and expanding our majority in the Pennsylvania House, which the DLCC and state Democrats flipped in 2022 and have defended ever since..

We’re also working to gain ground in the Senate, where half of the seats are on the ballot this year. With the legislature under split control, the Pennsylvania Senate GOP majority has rubber-stamped Trump’s disastrous agenda and blocked Democrats from advancing solutions for working families at every opportunity.
