On the Issues

COVID-19 impacted everyone, from small business owners to everyday workers. We must bolster our local economy to ensure everyone can pursue the lives they deserve.

• Invest in our communities by innovating rather than giving millionaires and billionaires a tax cut
• Support small businesses owners and encourage state funding for local vendors
• Lower healthcare costs and expand Medicaid in Florida
• Improve affordable housing and protect the use of Sadowsky Funds

Miami-Dade is ground zero for the effects of sea-level rise. Our children’s futures depend on taking action now.

• Support renewable energy solutions for the Sunshine State
• Invest in climate-friendly infrastructure to protect our community from sea level rise and erosion
• Protect the Everglades, Biscayne Bay, our coastal waters, and our natural resources
• Promote environmentally friendly development practices

Our future depends on creating opportunities for our children so they can help lead a better world.

• Increase funding for public schools, including infrastructure, resources, and support staff
• Boost teacher pay to attract top talent to our state and reward teachers for their hard work
• Reduce the cost of higher education in our public college system
• Improve accessibility to mental health resources for students

Too often, the scales are tipped against the needs of impacted communities. We need to ensure we are promoting equality & equity in every policy we create.

• Reform our criminal justice system and prevent racial targeting
• Address the gender pay gap and protect reproductive rights
• Protect LGBTQ+ rights and prevent discrimination 
• Support people with disabilities and promote accessibility

We need to make a government that works for the people, not the rich and powerful. Let’s bring transparency to the Florida Senate to ensure our legislature focuses on real people, not special interests.

• Hold the Executive Branch accountable when the Governor turns to hyper-partisanship 
• Protect voting rights and ensure no one is disenfranchised
• Reduce wasteful government spending
• Support anti-corruption measures and improve the reach of transparency watchdogs
