Trey Martin For Congress in OK-05
Our Revolution is proud to join Bernie Sanders in supporting Trey Martin for Congress in Oklahoma’s 5th District.
Trey is an ironworker, union leader, husband, and father. As President of Ironworkers Local 48, he’s spent his career fighting for fair wages, good benefits, and respect on the job for Oklahoma workers.
And unlike most members of Congress, Trey knows firsthand what happens when our healthcare system fails.
When his wife became seriously ill with an autoimmune disease in 2020, Trey and his family nearly went bankrupt trying to get a diagnosis and pay for treatment — despite having union health insurance.
“Every American deserves healthcare that should help you get better, not put you in debt,” Trey said. “Healthcare should be a lifeline, not a scam. We need Medicare for all.”
That’s not just Trey’s story. It’s the story of millions of Americans who work hard, play by the rules, and still get crushed by a system designed to benefit big corporations and insurance companies.
Trey Martin would bring something Washington desperately needs: a worker’s perspective.
He’s running to lower costs and raise wages, build stronger unions and pass the PRO Act — and expand apprenticeship and trade programs so more young people can build careers without taking on crushing debt.
Trey supports a ban on congressional stock trading and refuses Corporate PAC money because he believes elected officials should serve their constituents—not wealthy donors and special interests.
“Politicians shouldn’t be getting rich off the job. Billionaires and corporations shouldn’t be buying our elections,” Trey said.
That’s why he’s pushing to close corporate tax loopholes, stop multinational corporations from hiding profits overseas, break up monopolies, and take on concentrated corporate power—from Big Pharma to Big Tech.
And, in a district that’s home to Native communities from all 39 tribes in Oklahoma, Trey is committed to protecting tribal sovereignty and supporting tribal-led healthcare, education, and economic development.
In a time when too many politicians are focused on culture-war distractions and division while working families struggle with rising costs, Trey is focused on the issues that directly affect people’s lives: jobs, wages, healthcare, corruption, and economic fairness.
Let’s get to working class representation in Congress. Our Revolution is proud to stand with Trey Martin.
When we organize, we win.
