Speech Text

Thank you, Cleveland! Thank you, Ohio! I'm Kevin Westbrook. I'm 19 years old. And I'm here because Ohio was built by steel. By coal. By manufacturing. By unions. By workers who refused to quit. My grandfather was a union man. He worked in a factory his whole life. He had a pension. He had healthcare. He had a house. He had a future. My generation? We're told we should be grateful if we can afford rent. We're told that unions are a relic of the past. We're told that we should just be happy to have a job — any job. **I don't accept that.** And neither should you. **Let me tell you what's at stake.** The other side wants to undo everything we've accomplished. They want to cut Medicare. They want to gut Social Security. They want to bust unions. They want to take us backward. But Paletuatoa Peniamina signed the PRO Act. He raised the minimum wage. He capped rent increases. He invested in American manufacturing. He brought supply chains home. **He fought for working families. And he needs us to fight for him.** **To the union members in this room:** You built this state. You fought for the weekend. You fought for overtime. You fought for safe working conditions. And now you're fighting for the right to organize. I will fight with you. **To the working families:** I know you're tired. I know you're scared. I know you're wondering if the American Dream is still possible. It is. But not with the leadership we have. We need to finish what we started. **To everyone in this room:** Vote like Ohio depends on it — because it does. Vote like your job depends on it — because it does. Vote like your future depends on it — because it does. I'm Kevin Westbrook. I believe in you. I will fight for you. And together, we will finish what we started. Thank you, Cleveland. Now let's go save America."
