Sherrod Brown has always been a relentless fighter for the people of Ohio.

Born and raised in Mansfield, Sherrod saw firsthand how corporations lobbied for tax breaks and bad trade agreements that shipped Ohio jobs overseas. That’s why he’s always opposed unfair trade deals that hurt Ohio workers.

A tireless advocate in standing up for the dignity of work, Sherrod has never stopped fighting for Ohio families and workers across the country–and time and again he’s delivered results.

When Wall Street banks gambled away workers’ hard-earned pensions, Sherrod led the charge by writing the law to make sure over 100,000 Ohioans got the retirement they were owed.

When the drug companies jacked up prices, Brown successfully fought to cap the cost of insulin and reduce the price of other prescription drugs for Ohio seniors.

When millions of veterans returning from war who were exposed to highly toxic burn pits were being turned away by the VA as they suffered from severe illnesses like cancer and lung disease, Sherrod worked with Republicans to get them the care they deserved.

And because of Sherrod Brown, over 2 million former teachers, bus drivers, police officers, firefighters, and other workers are now receiving their full Social Security payments that previously were withheld by the federal government.

Called “a champion for workers and the middle class” who “has advocated for Ohio and for ordinary people” Sherrod Brown “has fought for affordable health care, fair wages, worker pensions and consumer protections.” 

Sherrod believes too many people think of politics as left or right, but to him it’s all about whose side you’re on, and who you are fighting for.

While Washington is making life harder for Ohioans by pushing reckless tariffs and economic chaos, spiking drug prices, ripping away health insurance and raising the deficit – all to give billionaires the largest tax cut in American history – Sherrod is running for Senate to make a real difference for Ohioans.

Sherrod lives in Columbus with his wife Connie Schultz, a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist and author. Sherrod and Connie drive Jeeps made by union workers in Toledo, and are blessed with a growing family, including three daughters, a son, eight grandchildren, and their beloved rescue dogs, Franklin and Walter.

In 2024, more than $250 million was spent against Sherrod Brown, making it the most expensive Senate race in history.

Sherrod is running for Senate again to stand up for workers and families, and to take on the corporate special interests that make it impossible for folks’ hard work to pay off. The system is rigged, and Sherrod is fighting to change that.

With corrupt special interests ready to spend whatever it takes to defeat Sherrod, he needs your critical support to fight back and win. To contribute online or by check, please see the online link and U.S. Postal Service information above.
