Tonight, I'm taking the debate stage for the final time with @RepJimRenacci.

There is a clear contrast between the two of us: I've been fighting like hell for all Ohioans in the Senate, while Renacci only looks out for himself. #OHSenDebate
While I'm fighting to protect Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security, @RepJimRenacci is trying to cut funding for programs that families rely on. #OHSenDebate sherrodbrown.com/blog/2018/repu…
.@RepJimRenacci voted FOR disastrous legislation like the #GOPTaxScam, which allowed banks, Wall Street, and CEOs to rake in millions and gave companies an incentive to move jobs overseas, while workers have seen little benefit.

Ohioans deserve better. #OHSenDebate
At the end of the day, I work hard to restore the value of work, and to ensure that all Ohioans see their work pay off in fair wages, good benefits, and a secure retirement.

@RepJimRenacci doesn't.

Before @JoeBiden and President Trump take the debate stage tonight in Cleveland, we’re counting down Trump’s worst betrayals of Ohio workers. #Debates2020
In 2016, Trump promised to fight for Ohio workers, but failed to lift a finger when GM abandoned Lordstown, taking 4,500 jobs with it.
Trump wasted trillions of workers’ tax dollars on a massive handout to Wall Street and his wealthy friends.

One year ago this week, I joined @nanwhaley after the shooting in #Dayton, Ohio. I looked the President in the eye and urged him to do the right thing.
I asked the President to call Republican Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, tell McConnell to bring the Senate back to Washington, hold a vote on commonsense gun safety legislation, and to promise the American people he will sign that legislation into law.
One year later and they haven't done anything. People do not have to keep dying and we have the power to do something about it. But that can’t happen until politicians stop working for the NRA and start doing the right thing for the people they serve.

#ICYMI in @RollingStone, "Senator Sherrod Brown Knows How to Save the Soul of the Democratic Party" sherrodbrown.com/frontpage/2020…
Q: What is your theory for how this president won in 2016? And how does that inform the Democratic Party nominee defeating the president in 2020?
First of all, he lied to people about protecting #SocialSecurity & #Medicare. He sold people a phony populism to make them feel like he was on their side, & then he betrayed them. - SB

We need to build a progressive bench in Ohio -- that's why this fall Sherrod started the Canary Candidates Program, to elect grassroots Ohioans who champion progressive values and who will fight for the #DignityofWork.
"In some of the recent local elections, it paid to be connected to Democratic U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown."
"After years of getting walloped in local races, Democrats made some significant gains in last week’s election. Some of those victors have Brown, easily the state’s most visible Democrat, to thank for an assist through his 'Canary Candidates' program."

Sherrod spoke at @dailykos & @Netroots_Nation’s Presidential Candidate forum to debunk the electability myth. The crowd was fired up! sherrodbrown.com/frontpage/2019…
Pundits too often argue that you have to compromise progressive values in order to win elections.

Sherrod knows better: He has served the great swing state of Ohio for decades and won his last election by seven points in a state President Trump won by nearly 10 points in 2016.
Sherrod has never compromised on his progressive values. He has built his campaigns and career around the Dignity of Work, which means you fight for a progressive economic agenda that respects all workers -- no matter who they are or what kind of work they do.

First, I want to say thank you. Thank you for your support as I ran for re-election in Ohio, and thank you for your support as we traveled the country on the Dignity of Work tour.
.@ConnieSchultz and I have spent the last few months traveling around the country to make dignity of work a centerpiece of Democrats’ 2020 campaign, and we are so grateful to everyone who has welcomed us into their communities and into their lives.
We’ve seen candidates begin taking up the dignity of work fight, and we have seen voters across the country demanding it—because dignity of work is a value that unites all of us. It is how we beat Trump, and it is how we should govern.
