Sherrod Brown]( Friend, you might have noticed, but where most of my colleagues wear the official Senate pin, I wear a pin depicting a canary in a birdcage. It's a reminder of how far we've come fighting for the Dignity of Work and how far we still have to go. This pin was given to me two decades ago by a Lorain steelworker at a Workers' Memorial Day rally. I proudly wear it every day on the lapel of my suits â because it represents all of us. In the early days of the 20th century, coal miners had to take a canary down into the mines to warn them of poisonous gas. Those workers didn't have a union strong enough or a government that cared enough to protect them. Over the last 100 years, we changed that. We passed worker safety laws and overtime pay. We banned child labor. We passed clean air and safe drinking water laws. We enacted Social Security and Medicare and recognized workers' rights, women's rights, and civil rights. But progress didn't happen on its own. It happened because people like you and me stood up and demanded their government work for them. It was citizens and workers, in union halls and church basements. It was civil rights activists and child advocates who took on powerful special interests and changed this country for the better. But when we see my MAGA opponent's campaign being funded by special interests and GOP super PACs, and a Trump-Vance ticket running to roll back the progress we've made, we know that our fight is far from over. It's going to take every single one of us stepping up to do our part, so I have to ask: [Will you chip in $5 or more to help us win this race and keep up the fight for the Dignity of Work?]( Please use the links in this email to start a weekly donation through ActBlue.
