Lynn Schmidt: How could Dems win back workers? Start with respecting the value of work

For years now Democrats have been wringing their hands over the loss of the working-class voter to Republicans," Schmidt said.
The article by Lynn Schmidt, published in the Twin Cities Pioneer Press on December 1, 2024, discusses strategies for Democrats to reconnect with working-class voters. Schmidt argues that Democrats need to demonstrate a genuine respect for the value of work by focusing on policies that directly benefit workers. Key points include advocating for better wages, job security, and labor rights, as well as addressing the economic anxieties of the working class. The piece highlights the importance of not just talking about these issues but showing tangible support through legislation and union support. Schmidt also critiques the party's past focus on identity politics over economic issues, suggesting a return to core labor values could help Democrats regain the trust of workers who feel left behind by both economic changes and political rhetoric.
