What a stellar couple of nominees for "Central Floridian of the Year" JJ Holmes and his mother Alison Holmes are not only inspirational but humbling in their quest for Florida to treat people with disabilities with dignity.

Second this. JJ & Alison have put in the work, built relationships across the aisle, and gotten things done. Change is hard, but JJ has proven that disability is no barrier to leading change. Proud of you buddy.

I survived 18 years on Florida’s disability waitlist. If I can’t fix it, I’ll open a care home so broken it mirrors the system perfectly. Y’all won’t like what you see. Please read my op-ed in Orlando Sentinel Share it. Then ask your legislators why they’re ok with this.

This Disability Pride Month, disability advocate JJ Holmes 🟧 warns: Trump’s cruel budget cuts, backed by FL Republicans, threaten vital programs relied on by Floridians and their families. FL Dems will continue to defend the programs that sustain and protect our communities.

I had to wait EIGHTEEN YEARS for services. Meanwhile, Ron DeSantis brags he’s got so much money he doesn’t know what to do with it. We deserve a governor who brags about clearing the waitlist not one who uses us to pad his surplus.

In a rare show of unity, the Young Democrats of Connecticut and Connecticut Young Republicans issued a joint statement offering prayers for Charlie Kirk’s family and condemning political violence. This is the way.
