why I was fired

  SHARED FOR INFORMATION AND EDUCATION!  THERE ARE DEMOCRATS ACROSS THE NATION RUNNING FOR OFFICE TO WORK TO RESTORE AMERICAN VALUES AND DEFEND AMAERICA'S WORKING CLASS!  LOOK AROUND! THEY'RE RUNNING FOR OFFICE! In October 2021, I had been an employee of Kellogg’s for almost 18 years. I had dropped out of college and started working for the company after my wife got pregnant. Life’s easy when all you gotta do is take care of yourself – but we needed diapers and health insurance for our growing family. Working at Kellogg’s used to be a lifelong career. A good-paying job that lets you become a homeowner, live decently, and hopefully retire someday. But over the years, that changed. Workers were paid less. Cost-of-living adjustments weren’t keeping up anywhere near inflation. Retirement and health insurance plans were gutted. It just wasn’t right. They were making record profits – and doing it off the backs of workers. So in October 2021, we walked out. And as president of o...

The Senate is broken. I’m not afraid to say it.

  SHARED FOR EDUCATION AND INFORMATION!  LOTS OF HARDWORKING DEMOCRATS RUNNING FOR ELECTION! I’ve spent my life fixing things that are broken. On the factory floor. In the Navy. In the National Guard. And right now, there’s nothing more broken than the United States Senate. Washington isn’t working for people like us anymore. It’s working for billionaires, lobbyists, and corporations that write the rules for themselves — and leave the rest of us footing the bill. I’m Dan Osborn, and I’m running for Senate to fix Washington. Please, chip in $10, $25, or whatever you can right now to help me Please use the links in this email to start a donation through ActBlue: I’m not a career politician. I’m an industrial mechanic from Omaha, a former union leader who took on Kellogg’s to protect my coworkers’ wages and benefits, and a guy who knows what it means to work 80-hour weeks just to keep a middle-class life together. And I’m running as an independent because I don’t owe either ...

  SHARED FOR INFORMATION AND EDUCATION ABOUT AN IMPORTANT  ISSUE....NOT A SOLICITATION FOR CONTRIBUTION UNLESS YOU AGREE! I’ll get straight to it. A new poll shows Zach Wahls trailing Republican Ashley Hinson by just  2 points. In a statewide Senate race. In Iowa! If Democrats are going to retake the majority, it will require winning races exactly like this one. That’s why I’m asking you to split a donation between Zach Wahls and Democratic Values right now. If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation split between Zach Wahls and Democratic Values will go through immediately: Here’s the math: Democrats need a net gain to retake the Senate majority. There are only a handful of true pickup opportunities in the entire country this cycle, and this poll shows that Iowa is one of them. Trump carried the state by double digits in 2024, but now, Wahls has narrowed that lead to 2. That’s why this race matters so much. As someone who has spent a lot of t...
