Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) responded to last night’s election results — where an Ohio anti-union law was repealed — by saying the middle class pushed back.
From the Washington Post’s Greg Sargent:
“If you pay attention to history, you know that collective bargaining is perhaps the single biggest reason we have a strong middle class in this country,” he said. “It has provided a path to the middle class for hundreds of thousands of workers. Last night Ohio took a very big step towards rebuilding the middle class.”
“The middle class doesn’t happen on its own — and it doesn’t unravel on its own, either,” he said. “Last night Ohio took a very big step towards rebuilding the middle class.”
