In October 2021, I had been an employee of Kellogg’s for almost 18 years.

I had dropped out of college and gone to work for the company after my
wife got pregnant. Life’s easy when all you gotta do is take care of
yourself – but we needed diapers and health insurance for our growing
family.

Working at Kellogg’s used to be a lifelong career. A good-paying job that
let you become a homeowner, live decently, and hopefully retire some day.

But over the years, that changed. Workers were paid less. Cost of living
adjustments weren’t keeping up anywhere near inflation. Retirement and
health insurance plans were gutted. It just wasn’t right. They were making
record profits – and doing it off the backs of workers.

So in October 2021, we walked out. And as president of our local union, I
led the strike.

Most of us had never walked a picket line. It was cold, but we were
determined to hold our lines through the dead of the winter if we had to.
We were a part of something bigger than ourselves. We were in a fight for
the future of the American middle class.

After 11 weeks in the cold, we reached an agreement. More importantly, we
saved 500 good-paying union jobs.

It was one of the proudest moments of my life.

Following the strike, I was fired. Someone had to pay – and as union
president, my head was on the chopping block.

It’s easy to let yourself get beaten down by life. To let big corporations
and the politicians they own in Washington make all the decisions – and
just accept that that’s how things will always be. But that’s not me.

Instead, I decided last year to run against one of the most corporate
politicians – U.S. Senator Republican Deb Fischer – and we nearly won. I
got 47% of the vote in one of the closest Senate races in the country.

Now, I’m running again for the U.S. Senate – this time against billionaire
Republican Pete Ricketts – and the first poll shows us virtually TIED: 46%
to 45%.

I am taking on a literal billionaire senator. We can finish what we
started last year and flip Nebraska’s Senate seat for working class
people, but I need grassroots donors like you to give now if we’re going
to win this seat.

I believe we can win this race and keep up the fight for the American
middle class. But I’m counting on your support now to win.

Thank you,
