Senator: 2020 Democratic candidates should focus on workers
WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown, who is considering a 2020 presidential run, said Sunday that a Democratic presidential candidate hoping to win Ohio should have a message aimed at workers and their needs.
The Ohio Democrat repeated in an interview Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press" that he hasn't yet decided whether he will run, but said he believes more attention must be paid to workers.
"Too many people in this country work hard every day, pay their dues, never get ahead, don't have the kind of retirement security they need," Brown said.
The 66-year-old senator led all Ohio vote-getters Nov. 6 to win re-election to a third Senate term while Republicans swept other key statewide offices.
