O’Brien fights for labor, rights

I'm voting for Dave O'Brien for Iowa's 1st Congressional District in Tuesday's primary.
He is uniquely qualified to represent Iowans. He has experience working with labor issues and constitutional rights and advocates for raising the federal minimum wage. He isn't a career politician and he isn't seeking election for personal gain. He has a proven track record of leadership. He served as the Iowa chairman for the Clinton campaign in 1992 and held a leadership position with the U.S. Department of Labor during the Clinton administration. Being the only Democrat in the race that has not been elected to public office he will bring a new voice to Washington
