When times get tough, working people need to stand up! One week ago, we launched this campaign to bring working-class values to Washington. The number of people who have reached out with support tells me one thing: The message we’re sending in American politics is long overdue.

I am honored and humbled to have earned the endorsement of the International Iron Workers Union. As a member, I understand the work ironworkers put in to build the skylines and bridges of this great country and the strength that comes from workers standing together! Thank you, fellow Iron Workers!

Ohio families are spending, on average, $1,532 more on everyday expenses; healthcare costs are skyrocketing; and working Americans are paying for 96 percent of tariffs. Max Miller can afford the votes he takes, but working families can’t. It’s time we sent a worker to Washington.

I believe healthcare policy should start with one simple question: Does this help people get the care they need without fear, delay, or financial devastation? It’s time all working families get better healthcare, and we quit lining the pockets of healthcare executives who deny people coverage.

Today, we reflect on a man who believed, as we all should, that the dignity of work is core to the American Dream. As Dr. King said, "I look forward confidently to the day when all who work for a living will be one with no thought to their separateness..." Let's resolve today to continue that work.

For our launch event, we couldn't find a podium, so my campaign manager and I built one in his garage. That's the kind of campaign we're building, one that isn't afraid to get dirt under our nails.

We're taking that message to voters, chip in today.

It was great to come out and speak this morning with the Medina County Democrats at another packed house for their Politics and Brunch event! Thank you to everyone there for all of the work you’re doing in Medina County to fight for working people!

Last night, we launched our campaign to a packed room of over 100 folks ready to see working-class values brought to Washington, D.C., and I pledged to you that I’ll always have the backs of working people.

As I said before, I’m ready to fight back. Are you?

I’m running because working people deserve a real seat at the table. We deserve leaders who understand the dignity of work, the pressure of rising costs, and the reality of trying to build a life working for a paycheck.

I’m Brian Poindexter - I’m a union ironworker, and I’m running for Congress because working people's lives keep getting harder and harder while billionaires keep getting richer and richer.

Washington isn't making it any easier.

I'm ready to fight back. Are you?
