“UFCW Local 222IN is excited to endorse Dan Osborn for U.S. Senate. Dan knows what it means to fight for working families, from fighting for the Lexington community when the Tyson plant shut down to fighting for his own union members as a labor leader. He understands how important union jobs are to communities across Nebraska. As a true working-class candidate, he is the best choice for Senate this November.”
