As Floridians begin to recover from the devastation of Hurricane Ian, they’re relying on their leaders to help secure federal aid to rebuild.

DeSantis has failed repeatedly to take action to protect homeowners, instead prioritizing divisive culture wars over taking real steps to lower costs for consumers. Elect Charlie Crist to address the REAL issues. As they continue to survey the damage left by Hurricane Ian, Floridians are coming to terms with the fact that the state’s broken
Here in Florida, DeSantis went to extraordinary lengths to allow Florida Power & Light to raise energy rates by a record $5 billion after receiving $3 million in campaign donations from FPL’s network of dark-money organizations. Three years ago, DeSantis’s Public Service Commission approved a $1 billion corporate tax cut to FPL – savings that
In unity and harmony, we pray for the safety and well-being of all Floridians from this horrific hurricane!

By E.J. Dionne Jr., Washington Post Columnist, September 25, 2022. While they were trumpeting their “Commitment to America” on Friday, House Republicans might have told Americans more than they intended about what a GOP majority would mean and the forces it would answer to. But they also gave Democrats some tips about what’s coming their way. Some of
Election day is now less than 7 weeks away and Governor Ron DeSantis is trying very hard to distract us from 3 key areas where he’s failed Florida. DeSantis is so determined not to discuss reproductive freedom, skyrocketing housing and property insurance costs, or gun violence that he’s willing to resort to possible criminal means to change the subject. It’s
By Jennifer Rubin, Washington Post Columnist, September 21, 2022. You don’t need to be an expert in theology to know that a central tenet of the world’s major religions is to care for the sick, the weak and the vulnerable. Jews, who have been perpetual immigrants, hold dear to the Torah’s invocation: “When a stranger sojourns with
Elect Chief Val Demings as our US Senator on November 8th! Marco Rubio is continuing his career-long mission to undermine Medicare and Social Security with new legislation that would force parents to cut their Social Security benefits in order to take paid leave to care for their children.

By Andrea Doria Kale, our Democratic candidate for US Congressional District 17 President Biden recently gave a speech with a powerful message.
