Dan Osborn built his career far from the halls of Washington. A U.S. Navy veteran and industrial mechanic, he spent years working on the factory floor before becoming a union leader in Omaha, Nebraska. He gained national attention in 2021 when he led Kellogg’s workers through a 77-day strike over workplace benefits and the future of their factory. Osborn is running as an independent candidate for the U.S. Senate in Nebraska’s November 3, 2026, general election. His campaign focuses on workers’ rights, corporate influence in politics and the rising costs facing working families.
