Congratulations to Ryan Boyer, Business Manager of the Philadelphia Building and Construction Trades Council, and Joseph Hill, Managing Director of Cozen O’Connor Public Strategies, for being named in the City & State’s 2024 PA Power 100.
From City & State:
Ryan Boyer is not just Philadelphia’s highest-profile Black labor boss; he also leads a movement to realign power more equitably in Pennsylvania’s largest city. Boyer marshaled the Philadelphia Building and Construction Trades Council to support the campaign of Cherelle Parker, the city’s first female mayor (he also served on her transition team). He spearheaded the Philadelphia Equity Alliance, a coalition of power players dedicated to promoting racial equity – the cause Boyer also champions with Everybody Builds, a collaboration to diversify Philly’s construction workforce.
As Cozen’s managing director, Joseph Hill leads the outfit’s government relations practice in Southeastern Pennsylvania. But his expertise extends throughout the commonwealth: Hill held statewide leadership roles for the campaigns of Tom Wolf and Hillary Clinton and also worked for U.S. Sen. Bob Casey.
