Good news! The Florida Supreme Court approved the language for Amendment 4, putting abortion on the ballot this November. Sadly, it comes on the heels of the upholding of the extreme 15-week abortion ban. We must continue to fight for freedom, privacy, and body autonomy! #FL17

Got to see Debbie Mucarsel Powell last night. She is a powerful woman on her way to becoming Florida’s next senator!

I’ve been involved with helping people for a long time. Here’s a pic from my early days at a rally with labor and civil rights leader Cesar Chavez. #FL17

Únete! Latinos con Biden-Harris ⁦Joe Biden⁩ y ⁦Kamala Harris⁩ ⁦Latinos con Biden⁩

A great afternoon of listening and connecting with the Babcock Friends of Democracy! Had a good chat with their school leader about the importance of investing in education. #FL17

The Affordable Care Act gave millions of Americans access to health care. We need to keep working to improve health care access. No American should go bankrupt trying to keep their loved ones alive. #FL17

A great evening at the Punta Gorda Drinking Liberally get together. I enjoyed meeting and conversing with district voters. Connecting with the people! #FL17

With the SCOTUS gutting of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, many voter suppression laws are now being passed by state legislatures. I stand for election integrity and voting rights. Our democracy depends on them! #FL17

I’m proud of my work and service. I retired following 27 years of service with the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in Rome, Italy. My work supported a wide variety of programs to fight hunger and improve food and agricultural systems around the world. #FL17

Had a great time this weekend checking out the Sarasota County Fair! From the farm to the gulf we all deserve someone in Washington DC working for us! #FL17

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Out riding the Legacy Trail this morning and finding a gopher tortoise along the way. We need to protect nature and our environment. #FL17

Some women from Pax Christi joined our Brady demonstration today. Wonder ful getting together with like minded souls. #EndGunViolence #FL17

Did you know Florida has one of the highest ballot fees in the country!?! It costs over $10k to get on the ballot. This makes it difficult for regular people to run for Congress. Pitch in today to get me on the ballot!! Deadline April 22. #FL17

Sad to see the beached whale off Venice Beach. I’m in awe of the amazing organizations in our community that came together to help the animal and take care after it’s demise. I hope we can learn more and do more to protect our wildlife and our water. #ThinkGreenVoteBlue #FL17

Wishing all who celebrate a peaceful and prosperous Ramadan!
