NEW POLITICS ENDORSES RYAN CROSSWELL FOR CONGRESS IN PENNSYLVANIA'S 7th CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT

WASHINGTON D.C. (August 13, 2025) — New Politics today endorsed Ryan Crosswell, a U.S. Marine, former federal prosecutor, and public servant, for Congress in Pennsylvania's 7th Congressional District. Crosswell, a lieutenant colonel in the Marine Corps Reserves, exemplifies the service-driven leadership that New Politics champions. 

Emily Cherniack, Founder and Executive Director of New Politics, released the following statement:

"Ryan Crosswell is the principled, dedicated, and courageous leader that Pennsylvania's 7th District needs in Congress. His lifetime commitment to public service speaks for itself — 17 years in the Marine Corps, where he serves today as a lieutenant colonel in the Reserves, 10 years as a federal prosecutor fighting corruption and protecting our communities, and most recently, 5 years as a public servant in the Department of Justice’s Public Integrity Section. Ryan’s record shows that time and time again he puts his principles above politics. That's exactly the kind of unwavering leadership we need in Washington.”

About Ryan Crosswell  

Ryan Crosswell is a Marine and former federal prosecutor who has dedicated his life to service. Today, he serves as a lieutenant colonel in the Marine Corps Reserves. After his active-duty military service ended, Ryan became a federal prosecutor, prosecuting fraudsters, violent criminals, and political corruption. Most recently, in the Department of Justice’s Public Integrity Section, he prosecuted corrupt public officials from both parties. When Donald Trump attempted to force him to drop a case against a political ally, Ryan fought back and resigned, demonstrating his commitment to standing up for what’s right, even when it’s hard. In Congress, Ryan will work to lower costs for Pennsylvanians, protect Social Security and Medicare, and fight political corruption and attacks on our rights and freedoms.
