I’m up for re-election in 2024 friend, and as one of just three Democrats in states Trump won and the only remaining statewide-elected Democrat in Ohio, I’m a prime target for Mitch McConnell and the GOP. (There’s already a wealthy Republican state senator considering running against me.)

NBC says my race could be “even nastier and more expensive” than last year’s Senate race in Ohio – and that race was one of the most expensive in the country with over $200 million spent.

In fact, 2023 has just begun and already an opponent has jumped into the race and the NRSC is running attack ads against me.

Frankly, it’s going to be my toughest race yet, but if we work together, we can win in Ohio. Will you split a contribution between my campaign and Ben Ray Luján's as we begin the new year?

I grew up in Mansfield, Ohio. I went to school with the sons and daughters of ironworkers, carpenters, autoworkers, and electricians. Eventually, those jobs disappeared as one big plant after another left town. Every day, I fight in the U.S. Senate to bring those jobs back to our state and to put money back in the pockets of hardworking families.

I wear a canary pin that a steelworker gave to me years ago – a reminder that workers used to have to take a canary with them to the coal mines in case there was dangerous gas. The pin is a symbol of the progress we’ve made on workers’ rights and the work we still have left to do. 

Like raising wages. Making sure everyone has good job opportunities in their hometowns. Rewarding companies that invest in American jobs instead of shipping them overseas. Ensuring no one needs a second or third job just to get by.

That’s what the Dignity of Work is all about. No matter who you are, where you live, or what kind of work you do – whether you punch a clock or swipe a badge, earn a salary or make tips – your work has dignity and I’ll fight for you. 

I need you in this fight, too, friend. It won’t be easy, but if we organize, work hard, and start early, I know we can do this. Please consider chipping in our average online contribution of $26 – or whatever amount makes the most sense for you.
