“We are proud to support Lt. Governor Lee Fisher for the U.S. Senate because he has proven his commitment to Ohio’s working men and women as a state legislator, Attorney General and as Lt. Governor. Ohio needs a fighter in Washington alongside Senator Sherrod Brown and Governor Ted Strickland to support jobs in our state, and Lee Fisher is that person.”

The Ohio Conference of Teamsters

"Since he co-sponsored Ohio's collective bargaining agreement as a young state legislator, Lee Fisher has always fought for the hard-working men and women of our state. In good times and in bad, Lee has stood with us—for fair wages, access to health care and the right to organize in our workplaces, Lee has been an outspoken advocate for middle class families. Lee will bring that same tenacity and tireless spirit to the Senate on behalf of all Ohioans."

Ohio's United Auto Workers

“American auto workers have been hit hard by the economic crisis and we need a voice in Washington that will stand up for the working men and women of Ohio. Lee Fisher is a proven leader who will fight to keep manufacturing jobs in Ohio and work to strengthen our domestic auto industry. Now more than ever we need a senator who will put American jobs first and reverse the failed economic policies of the Bush-Portman administration that led us into this financial crisis.”
