Why I’m Running
Florida … it’s time to be bold.
I am a candidate for the United States Senate because we need to work together to solve the very real problems faced by Florida families.
Florida is in trouble and we are not getting our fair share from Washington.
Wages are stagnant. We are losing population.
The cost of living is higher because of increased homeowners’ insurance rates and taxes. Our quality of life in Florida is at risk.
We aren’t even getting our fair share of the stimulus package. Although, Governor Crist embraced President Obama’s stimulus package, Florida is 50th out of 50 States in the allocation of stimulus funds. We are dead last.
My purpose in the United States Senate will be to look to Florida’s future. My campaign will not be about what I learned yesterday but rather tomorrow’s opportunity.
I am a Democrat but I expect to get support from Independents and Republicans who know I will be a partner in progress with and for them.
It is time to stop petty political bickering and get things done.
I served as the mayor of the City of Miami for twelve years and I served Florida as a member of the State House of Representatives.
But today’s problems cannot be solved with yesterday’s solutions.
We need a bold voice in Washington who is ready to fight for Florida.
I will be that voice.
