The Factory - A Deep Song About The Plight of Manufacturing Workers in America



I met with my brothers and sisters of the United Auto Workers today. Many in my family, like so many around our region, once had good union jobs, wages, benefits and a middle class life with dignity thanks to the work of the UAW and others involved in the struggle.

This song by Akillis Green sums up too well the condition faced by so many of our working class brothers and sisters.

When elected I will fight for good middle class jobs and the ability for workers to organize and lift themselves out of poverty employment in Ohio's 43rd district, and across the state.
