Hearing my fellow Americans say, "We need a leader in the room." We have them: AOC, Crockett, Warren, all giving us marching orders. Our local Democratic reps like @annaforflorida.bsky.social too.

Haitians who have lived in the US for 15 years will be at risk of deportation for no reason other than being Haitian— this is shameful. www.bbc.com/news/article...

The child labor bill from last session that we defeated has been filed again. This legislation essentially strips current protections Florida has for child labor.

Musk/Trump/NYT is going to call firing IRS agents savings, but the lost revenue will be many times their salaries: this all about making it easier for rich people to cheat on their taxes.

This is like Senators asking for Trump to release funding for their pet projects. When you campaigned for a personalist presidency you have turned yourself into a beggar seeking the King’s favor rather than a citizen who can be confident of equal treatment for all.

I have a lot of thoughts but am in my Human Services Subcommittee right now so I’ll respond ASAP but I feel confident that nightlife can and should co exist with a revitalized & reimagined Downtown. That’s one reason why we’re hosting our kickoff Downtown too. 🫶

There's a lot to be unhappy about when it comes to Florida Democrats...but Anna V. Eskamani is one of the bright spots and rising star for the Democratic Party. Orlando will be lucky to have her as their mayor.

Florida’s crackdown forces local officials to comply with ICE or risk removal. For State Representative Anna Eskamani, a Democratic critic: “It erodes that ability to decide who serves you... The idea is to scare people into submission.”boltsmag.org/florida...

Hey #florida folks! What do we think are the top three issues we really need to go after? Listen to a great zoom with @annaforflorida.bsky.social yesterday and since there are so many things being thrown at us, trying to sift through to see which bad Bills will have the most negative impact.
