This is Endorsement #9 — for Dan Osborn, running for U.S. Senate in Nebraska.
This one is a little different for me: Osborn is more ideologically moderate than some of my other endorsements, but still very clearly populist and working‑class — and I’m just as excited about this race because he can actually win statewide in Nebraska.
With Osborn in the Senate, you could count on his vote for a lot of core populist, pro‑worker legislation, even if we will not agree on every single issue.
Frankly, this is one of the most exciting campaigns this cycle - and can really give us a strong showing that is pro worker in November.
Why this endorsement
- Winnable populist lane. A real shot at flipping a Senate seat with a candidate who still speaks to working people and corporate power.
- Reliable ally on big fights. Someone you can realistically see voting the right way on many major populist priorities.
If that combination — win the seat + move populist legislation — resonates with you, consider chipping in above.

This is Endorsement #8 — for Kat Abughazaleh, running for Congress in Illinois’ Ninth District.
Her core line: Democrats need to do more to stop Trump and fight for working people.
Why this endorsement
- Working‑class focus. Frames the race around working people, not donors.
- Real primary contrast. Presses Democrats to confront Trumpism and the billionaire status quo.
