Issues

The challenges facing the people of Florida requires elected officials finding solutions together.

SOME OF THE PROBLEMS:

Jobs

Florida has nearly 2 million people unemployed or underemployed.

Immigration

A non-functioning immigration policy demands reasonable reform that is both humane and secures our borders.

Homeownership

The cost of homeownership keeps getting higher. Insurance and property taxes are soaring.

Social Security & Medicare

Requires secure, long lasting federal fixing.

Lobbyist

“Big Money” and special interests are too often calling the shots.

Partisanship

Bickering in the U.S. Senate is impeding progress. Washington needs civility and reasonable cooperation.

Banking & Wall Street

Reform and regulations are needed to avoid another bubble & bust of the U.S. Economy.



SERIOUS PROBLEMS CALL FOR BOLD SOLUTIONS

SOME SOLUTIONS FOR THE U.S. SENATE:

The U.S. Senate needs a New Florida Senator with practical experience, vision, integrity and the courage to fight for reasoned solutions.

Small Business and Jobs

My number one priority will be to get people back to work. I will champion job programs geared towards small business.

Environment

I have always been a vigorous opponent of off-shore oil drilling. Big Oil is pushing to drill off Florida’s Gulf and also the Atlantic Coast. I will aggressively oppose such a measure as a member of the United States Senate. I will fight for a carbon-free future for Everglades restoration.

Immigration

America is a nation of immigrants and its strength comes from the diversity of its people. I will tackle the issue of illegal immigration and lead the battle for reasonable reform that is both humane and secures our borders.

Seniors

Social Security and Medicare are a part of the fabric of American life and must be protected. I will be your voice for senior issues in the Senate.

Civil Dialogue

We need civil dialogue to create better public policy. Florida needs a U.S. Senator with practical experience, vision, integrity and the courage to fight for reasoned solutions.

Fair Share

We are now a super donor state, giving Washington more then we get. Florida must get its fair share of the federal funds.

New Economy

Promote visitors and tourism. We must also diversify Florida’s economy; energy, biotech, nanotechnology, health and transportation.

Trade

Foreign trade partnerships, especially with the 500 million people of the Caribbean and Latin America.

Infrastructure

Repair and build-up, especially in transportation and Florida ports. Florida must be in the forefront of high-speed rail and intercity commuter rail.

Education

Education reform and initiatives, early learning, K-12, community colleges, state universities, transfer of knowledge.

BOLD JOB-CREATING INITIATIVES. COMMON SENSE RESULTS.
