Today our teachers are receiving PERCENTAGE RAISES because our Union members stood strong together in this fight and PERSISTED. We stood even after the district's first proposal once again of a flat amount raise. We stood even after the district declared impasse. And WE WON…

Honored to be able to chat with Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost and Asst. US Secretary of Ed Gwen Graham and local lawmakers about the state of education in Florida including teacher shortages, pay, working conditions, book bans and culture wars. #publiced AFT NEA Florida Education Association

Such an honor to be endorsed by the Orange County Class room Teachers Association! @orangecta

I will always fight for our hard-working educators!

Congratulations! Teachers ratified their contract with 99.5% voting in favor! 50.1% of our bargaining unit voted (7,082). THANK YOU to our volunteers, barg. team, ARs, staff, and members who stood together to make this happen! Join today

After nearly 2 years of fighting DeSantis’ ​'Don’t Say ​Gay or Trans' law in the courts, we’ve reached a historic settlement with the state that puts an end to some of the most dangerous impacts of ​this law for students, parents, & teachers.

Teachers are already carrying enough on their shoulders. A 64% average increase to their insurance is just too much. #StandWithTeachers #NoTo64 #CTAstrong @ocps_official Orange County CTA AFT NEA Florida Education Association

Thank you Maxwell Alejandro Frost for standing with teachers! The OCPS-proposed 64% average insurance increase is just too much at once for our teachers. ocpsnews

This comes one week after UF released admission decisions. I can’t imagine wanting my kid and money to go there.

So good spending time at MadSoul Festival with people in our community working to make it better. Congrats Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost for an amazing event! #VOTE #ORGANIZE #MOBILIZE #MadSoul

In 2022, the GOP thought they’d won.

But after seeing the damage they caused with their supermajority, I’m back and stronger than ever as a Democrat running for Florida Senate.

No more MR. NICE GAY.

2024 is Return of the Jedi.

It’s the year we #TakeBackFl together. 🗳️

Ron DeSantis' fascist tendencies have emboldened Republicans to pursue new laws ABOLISHING the Florida Democratic Party, creating a one-party state.

SB 1248 says 4.8 MILLION Dem voters would be notified their party was 'canceled' and they're now 'No Party' affiliated voters.

THOUSANDS of voters in #HD37 received this very dishonest mail from my GOP opponent, Susan Plasencia, attacking me with outright lies about my record.

Luckily, I kept all the receipts, so I’m debunking it for you. ⬇️

Was able to share in this story why we are so enraged about these manufactured culture wars against teachers. We should be making our schools better for teachers and students, not destroying public ed. #DeSantisDestroysFlorida #VoteHimOut #voteyourjob #safespaces

Using the additional “guidance” provided by the FLDOE on HB1557 and responses by legislators on the House & Senate floor, here’s what needs to be said to protect students’ rights to access information and freedom of speech.

Good morning. My lawsuit against #DontSayGay has been filed. Children deserve to be loved and respected no matter how they identify. Read more about it here:

I've been endorsed by the Florida Education Association, the Orange Classroom Teachers Association AND Seminole County's public school teachers and support staff.

They know I'll focus on REAL issues affecting schools while standing up to schoolyard bullies like Ron DeSantis.
