Florida has a long history of making it difficult for out of work residents, especially those earning low wages, to get the benefits they need.
Florida’s Economy
Florida’s economy doesn’t work for low and middle-income Floridians. Florida’s celebrated status as a low tax state also ensures it stays a low quality of living state.
Rising Cost of Living
The cost of living is skyrocketing, making it hard for working Floridians like nurses, firefighters, and teachers to afford to live in the places they serve.
The Environment
Florida’s natural beauty drives its economy. Protecting the environment protects our livelihoods.
Healthcare
As we’ve seen during this pandemic, you are only as healthy as your neighbor, and if your neighbor can’t afford to see the doctor, that puts you at risk.
Voter Engagement and Education
Vote by mail, voter suppression, voter registration, early voting, DeSantis accountability, state legislature, ballot initiatives
Education
Florida's public education system has long been underfunded and we trail most states in teacher pay. Lawmakers must fund our future.
