Dan Brady opposed further reforms to the workers’ compensation insurance system that would have reduced or eliminated benefits to injured workers. Brady opposed the Rebuttable Presumption Bill (House Bill 122) that assumed an injured worker who refused to take a drug and alcohol test up to 36 hours following an accident was at fault and automatically lost his or her benefits.
Dan Brady also supported the Ohio Supreme Court in its upholding of workers’ rights when it ruled against anti-labor legislation. Brady campaigned across Ohio to re-elect Justice Resnick against millions in undisclosed out-of-state corporate money. Brady also led the fight against the legislative immunity amendment slipped into the budget bill (HB 94).

We are too inclined to go hence to a “better land,” without lifting a finger, as our farmers are moving to the Ohio soil; but would it not be more heroic and faithful to till and redeem this New England soil of the world?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“A house in the country is not the same as a country house.”
