Housing, healthcare, education, and no data centers. It’s really that simple.

We are calling on Senator Ashley Moody to release the grand jury report into the $10 million in taxpayer funds diverted to Republican bank accounts from the Hope Florida scandal. The corruption has to stop and Floridians deserve to know where their money went

Floridians are tired of career politicians like Ashley Moody being their voice in Washington. They’re being crushed by high costs, and they want someone who is going to do something about it — and I’m ready to get it done.

🚨 Lee County: You may have a say in a race you weren’t expecting. A last minute qualifying change means the race for Commissioner Dist 5 is now a Universal Primary Contest. ✅ Democrats can vote ✅ Republicans can vote ✅ NPAs can vote Your vote counts on Aug 18. 🗳️

Had a great time last night in Orlando at the @FLAFLCIO candidate reception. I was the only CFO candidate there —because I have always stood with labor, and I always will. Working families deserve a CFO who fights for them. I’m in. 🔥

The maps changed. Your voice didn't. 🗣️ More than 100,000 Lee County voters have been moved into different congressional districts. If you're in Fort Myers, Gateway, North Fort Myers, Lehigh Acres, or surrounding areas, your ballot may look different this year.

Property tax relief or cuts to the services Floridians rely on? Gov. Ron DeSantis’ property tax proposal could reshape how local governments fund public libraries, law enforcement, infrastructure, and other community services.

Our heartfelt thoughts are with Mayor Jerry Demings and his family. He has done incredible things for the people of Central Florida and built an undeniable legacy of service. We are wishing him strength and a full recovery.

Today we hit the streets of Dunbar in Fort Myers ... and the Prosperity Agenda showed up! 💜 Our team knocked doors, talked to neighbors, and heard what matters most to the people of SWFL, affordable housing, lower costs, and a representative who actually shows up. And speaking of affordable housing, we saw firsthand what it looks like when the federal government has to step in because a property owner isn't holding up their end of the bargain. People there are struggling with mold and food security. The people of East Pointe Place deserve better. You all deserve better. That's exactly why I'm running. SWFL doesn't have a congressman who shows up for communities like Dunbar. That's about to change.

Florida Republicans in Tallahassee have ONE job: pass the budget. $115 billion are on the line, and Democrats are fighting to fully fund public education and address the affordability crisis. Follow along for updates.

Are you ok with your money going to a new White House ballroom and a $1.7B slush fund for J6 insurrectionists? Think about that question the next time you check out of the food store or fill up your tank.
