In 2022, PUMP worked with a wide range of partners to form the regional Voting Is Power (VIP) Coalition to formally collaborate on nonpartisan events around Allegheny County.
This group has grown to dozens of regional organizations including the League of Women Voters of Greater Pittsburgh, B-PEP, YWCA Greater Pittsburgh, VEEM, the Greater Pittsburgh Nonprofit Partnership, and many other groups. Each year we have put on nonpartisan candidate forums for various elected positions, GOTV events, meet and greets, and collaborated on media. Here is the recap for 2025’s Mayoral Forum at Point Park University.
For our upcoming candidate forums in 2026, please use this form to submit questions in advance:
