QUICK CLIP: In Dayton, Ohio Workers Highlight Sherrod’s Record Fighting for The Dignity of Work
COLUMBUS, OH – Yesterday, Dayton-Miami Valley AFL-CIO President Tom Ritchie, UFCW 75 Minority Coalition Coordinator Tonya McCoy, and IUPAT DC-6 Assistant Service Director David Lay hosted a “Workers for Sherrod” event in Dayton to highlight Sherrod’s record fighting for Ohio workers and the Dignity of Work.
The “Workers for Sherrod” statewide tour is highlighting Sherrod’s record delivering for Ohio workers and fighting for the Dignity of Work, the belief that hard work should pay off for everyone, with stops across Ohio. Ohio workers are lining up behind Sherrod, citing his fight to save the pensions of over 100,000 Ohio workers and his commitment to making sure every family has a path to the middle class.
WKEF: “Local labor workers hosting a ‘Workers for Sherrod’ tour stop today here in Dayton. It’s a statewide tour touting accomplishments for Senator Sherrod Brown that he’s made for the working class; the organization citing Brown’s work with Wright Patterson Air Force Base, saving pensions, and investments into career centers, and how these all impact Ohio workers.”
Dayton-Miami Valley AFL-CIO President Tom Ritchie: “[the upcoming election is about] job security, expanding the job base, it’s about the pensions, the protections of the pensions. You know, our people work and put their life on the job every day…the Senator is about protecting those families, protecting their pensions – the things that they’ve worked for, that they deserve, that belongs to them.”
WKEF: “The [AFL-CIO] says Brown has always fought for workers and their families, and having Brown in the office will impact all Ohio workers.”
