Workers’ share of the nation’s income is at the lowest it’s been since records began in 1947. Corporate profits’ share, on the other hand, is the highest it’s been since 1950.
This is why we must build back worker power.
Happy Labor Day. Today, I remember the sacrifices brave workers of the past made so the rest of us could have a shot at the American dream.
The 8 hour work day. The weekend. Minimum wage. Lunch breaks. None of it was handed to us. We fought the robber barons back then to make lives better, and we'll do it again today.
A good paying union job in the trades allowed me to provide for me and my family. Every student in America should be given the same opportunity to have a good, secure middle class life.
Here’s what we can do to make that a reality:
✅Offer AP credit for advanced shop classes so students don’t have to choose between having a more competitive transcript and exploring a trade in high school
✅Pass an updated Carl D. Perkins funding bill to give school districts and postsecondary institutions more resources to add, improve, and expand career and technical education classes
✅Protect and expand President Trump’s Workforce Pell Grant so students of low income families can more easily access an education for the trades
✅Expand Integrated Basic Education and Skills Training (I-BEST) training programs so individuals, and even soon-to-be ex-prisoners, can earn a GED while learning a trade
What else would you expect from Rep. Kaptur -- already talking politics and eager to keep serving Ohio families and fighting for Ohio's 9th congressional district. Nothing can keep @Marcy_Kaptur down!
Ohio is breaking records in 2026 but they aren’t good. This year we’ve seen:
-Record-breaking utility bills
-The highest rate of people dropping ACA health care coverage than any other state
-The most expensive planting season ever for Ohio farmers
-The highest recorded diesel prices in Ohio history
Now more than ever, Ohioans need someone working to bring down costs and fight for hardworking families.
My opponent has repeatedly stated that he wants to eliminate teachers' unions and has called to end federal worker unions.
My husband is a proud 43-year public school teacher — I have seen up close how important the benefits and rights are that teachers' unions have fought for. If we want to improve educational outcomes in Ohio, we need to start by attracting and retaining high-quality teachers.

Many Ohioans are skeptical that we can make a change, and for good reason – our leadership has let us down. But we’re going to work together to bring down costs and here’s how:
✅Ban members of Congress and their spouses from trading stocks or becoming lobbyists after they leave office
✅Make it illegal for drug companies to charge Americans more than what they charge in other countries for the same medications
✅Cap how much utility companies can increase rates for electricity
✅Require data centers to pay the full cost of construction and electricity so Ohioans don’t pay higher utility costs
✅Cut taxes on working people and make the rich pay their fair share
The most important video we’ve ever made just released on YouTube, covering the 2025 Camp Mystic Flood Disaster. Please like, share, and hype it so more people can become aware of the inaction and ignorance that enabled the disaster to happen:

.@SherrodBrown: Let's ban the health insurance companies from denying care that your doctors say you need. If that doesn't work, then fine them when they deny your claims. Let's make it illegal for the drug companies to charge Americans more than they do in other countries. The same pill should be the same price. We're going to take on the politicians who are more interested in enriching themselves than they are in serving you
