“The Ohio AFL-CIO is proud to endorse Sherrod Brown for the U.S. Senate,” said Ohio AFL-CIO President Tim Burga. “Sherrod has never backed down from a fight to stand up for all Ohioans, no matter what part of the state they call home. Whether fighting for good jobs that expand the working middle class, securing earned retirement benefits, or taking on powerful special interests, Sherrod has consistently delivered for working families. He is guided by the values he learned growing up in Mansfield, and unlike his opponent, he will make the affordability crisis his number one priority. Ohioans deserve a senator who will fight every day for a worker-first agenda — not one who caters to the interests of billionaires.”
