June 30, 2025 Press Release PHILADELPHIA, PA — Congressman Brendan F. Boyle (PA-02), Dean of Pennsylvania’s Democratic Congressional Delegation, released the following statement on the announcement Congressman Dwight Evans will not seek reelection: “Philadelphia only gets to send two of its citizens to Congress. For the last decade, I’ve had the honor of serving alongside my friend and colleague, Congressman Dwight Evans. As fellow members of the powerful Ways and Means Committee, we’ve worked very closely to deliver for our city and fight for working families across the country. Dwight is more than just a colleague—he’s a lifelong public servant. From the classroom to the state legislature to the halls of Congress, he has dedicated himself for a half-century to the city we both love. His deep commitment to our community made a lasting mark on Philadelphia and Pennsylvania. I look forward to continuing to serve with him through the end of this term. I want to thank Dwight for his leadership, his friendship, and for always being there for our community and our country.” ### Issues : Local Issues
