Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown Endorses Joe Biden for President

Today, Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown released the following statement endorsing Joe Biden for President of the United States:

"Joe Biden has dedicated his life to serving our country, and has never forgotten whom he fights for: the millions of Americans who are working hard, but feel like they can't earn their way to a better life, no matter how hard they work. Dignity of Work isn't a slogan — it's who we are, and how we govern; Joe Biden understands that. And as we face both a public health crisis and an economy in turmoil, we need a steady hand more than ever. Joe Biden has the experience, the tenacity, and the empathy to lead in a crisis, and the hope to bring us together, and steer us toward brighter days ahead."

Senator Brown’s endorsement builds on the list of nearly 70 current and former elected officials and community leaders from across Ohio who have endorsed Joe Biden, including Congressman Tim Ryan, Congresswoman Marcia Fudge, former Ohio Governor Ted Strickland, former CFPB Director Richard Cordray, former Congressman Edward Feighan, Columbus City Attorney Zach Klein, former Columbus City Councilmember Mary Jo Hudson, State Senator Herceal Craig, Columbus Mayor Andrew Ginther, Cincinnati Mayor John Cranley, and Youngstown Mayor Tito Brown.

Biden leads the field in congressional endorsements with support from more than 100 U.S. Representatives and 15 U.S. Senators, including the most endorsements from members of both the Congressional Black Caucus and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. Biden for President has previously announced more than 2,500 endorsements from national, state, and local leaders, including current and former U.S. senators and representatives, governors, state elected officials, community leaders, and national security professionals.

The health and safety of our staff, supporters, and the general public is Biden for President’s number one priority. In Ohio, a request for a vote-by-mail ballot must be received by your County Board of Elections on or before April 25. To ensure that it is counted, a return vote-by-mail ballot must be postmarked by April 27 or dropped off at your County Board of Elections on April 28. Learn more at joebiden.com/voter-guide.

U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown Will Not Run for President in 2020

BROWN ANNOUNCES HE WILL CONTINUE FIGHT FOR DIGNITY OF WORK FROM U.S. SENATE

Senator Will Not Run for President in 2020,

Will Do Everything He Can to Elect Democratic President and Democratic Senate

Washington, DC -- U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH) announced today that he has decided the best way for him to continue his fight for workers is by serving Ohio in the U.S. Senate. Brown said he will continue working to make the Dignity of Work a central focus for Democrats in 2020 and do everything he can to elect a Democratic President and Democratic Senate.

“Connie 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. That’s why I’m confident it will continue to be a focus for Democrats in 2020, and I plan on making sure that happens,” said Brown.

“I will keep calling out Donald Trump and his phony populism. I will keep fighting for all workers across the country. And I will do everything I can to elect a Democratic President and a Democratic Senate in 2020. The best place for me to make that fight is in the United States Senate.”
