Hi John, My name is Brian Poindexter. I’m a union ironworker and a proud Democrat. And I recently announced my run for Congress in Ohio’s 7th District. Blue Amp Action said I could reach out to tell you about our race. I’ve spent my entire life in this community: working job sites, balancing multiple jobs, worrying about bills, raising a family, and showing up for my neighbors. I know what it feels like to work hard and still get squeezed by the Washington elites. That’s why I’m in this race for Congress. Because this country doesn’t run on hedge funds, corporate boardrooms, or billionaire donors. It runs on workers — the people who punch the clock, run the job site, drive the truck, teach the kids, care for seniors, power the grid, and keep this place going. Those folks are the foundation of America. But in Washington, we’re treated like a line item to cut when it’s convenient. Here in OH-7, we are used to being an afterthought: When tax cuts get handed out, they go to the wealthy. When subsidies get discussed, corporations jump to the front of the line. When the national debt becomes the crisis of the day, working families get told to “tighten their belts.” Meanwhile, utility rates keep climbing, health care premiums keep rising, and wages never seem to catch up. I’m running because this district deserves a representative who answers to workers and neighbors, not lobbyists and special interests. The people of OH-7 are ready for change. This is a working-class district that, if we flip it, we will take back the House.
With the support of people like you, John, I know we can flip this seat, put a worker in Congress, and make sure this district is never written off again. Thank you for being with me, Brian Poindexter  |
