Jimmy Dillon (born January 15, 1979) is an American politician who is a Democratic member of the Senate of Pennsylvania. He was elected to represent the 5th senatorial district on May 17, 2022, in a special election to replace incumbent Democrat John Sabatina.[1] He was formerly a School District of Philadelphia grant compliance monitor.[2]

Early life and education

Dillon was born on January 15, 1979, in Northeast Philadelphia.[3][4][5] He is a graduate of Holy Ghost Prep and the University of Notre Dame, where he played Division I basketball.[4]

Pennsylvania State Senate

In 2021, Democratic State Senator John Sabatina was elected as a judge on the Court of Common Pleas in Philadelphia and resigned his seat on December 31.[6] On January 10, 2022, Democrats selected Dillon's older brother Shawn as their nominee. Shawn later withdrew from the race after facing a legal challenge due to missing candidate filing paperwork and was replaced on the ballot by Dillon, a School District of Philadelphia grant compliance monitor.[2][7]

A special election was held on May 17; Dillon won with 54% of the vote.[8] He was sworn in on June 7, 2022.[9]

On September 24, 2024, Dillon was criticized[10] for multiple posts containing racist and homophobic slurs uploaded to the X account of his basketball coaching business, Hoops 24–7, several years ago.[11] The posts referred to a basketball player using a racial epithet and told a porn star to "come party with [them]."[10]

He was defeated by Republican Joe Picozzi in 2024.[12]
