DEMOCRATS DELIVER :: REPUBLICANS OBSTRUCT
ELECTIONS MATTER:
When we vote, we win!
VOTE IN OUR NATIONAL ELECTIONS
Since 2020, Democrats have delivered on promises made despite Republican obstruction.
Democrats delivered on issues important for us all:
- the American Rescue Plan on 2021, helped people get back on their feed after Covid.
- Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act, providing jobs while re-building our nation
- Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, groundbreaking gun safety legislation
- Health Care for Burn Pit Veterans Act, taking care of those who fought for our freedom
- Inflation Reduction Act, helping lower the cost of everyday living and protecting our environment
- CHIPS & Science Act, returning U.S. leadership and supply-chain control of the technology that runs our world
If Republicans gain control of our legislature, they have promised to:
- enact a national ban on abortion
- restrict access to birth control
- overturn marriage equality
- end Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid
- increase taxes on hard-working Americans who cannot afford to have their taxes raised
Our freedom and rights to be healthy, safe, and prosperous are under siege.
We must vote for Democratic leaders who will fight and work for us.
VOTE IN OUR STATE ELECTIONS
Florida Democrats have been outnumbered in the State Legislature for 22+ years and have been unable to make progress for us. State Republicans have controlled all three branches of government and in doing so they have:
- refused federal government help to expand and enhance healthcare for working Floridians
- enacted laws to suppress the votes of the working poor
- enacted laws to dilute the power of low-income, elderly, and minority votes
- ruined our environment
- destroyed public education in favor of unregulated charter schools, and made Florida the least affordable state to live in America
VOTE IN OUR COUNTY ELECTIONS
In Collier County, the County Commissioners are approving new developments in an environmentally and financially irresponsible way, ignoring opposition to the growing traffic congestion, air and water pollution, and the inevitable flooding that sea level rise will bring. The Commissioners are overseeing continued water pollution by big agriculture, residential properties, and golf courses.
There is also a critical power struggle for control of the Collier County School Board. The current board has held the line against those who want to ban books and institute extremist right-wing curriculum in our schools, but extreme right-wing candidates are challenging all incumbents up for re-election.
