Every day, our teachers and families give everything they have. They deserve leaders who do the same. I’m so proud to have Miami-Dade School Board Member Luisa Santos by my side as we fight to make life better for our community. And build a Miami where everyone can make it.
Anyone else notice how loud Rep. María Elvira Salazar is when denouncing dictators abroad, but how silent she gets about the one at home?
For the Mayor to have to issue a letter like this is a damning indictment of how broken Washington has become. The White House is refusing to use contingency funds. And Rep. María Elvira Salazar is lost behind another camera. Families will go hungry. Children will suffer.
The President is holding the food assistance of the American people hostage. It’s cruel and he’s weaponizing hunger. Nearly one in four Miami-Dade households rely on SNAP. I’m calling on Rep. María Elvira Salazar to denounce his statement and demand the White House release the funds.
