We have to mobilize to Tallahassee on Tuesday. Our state legislature is trying to sneak through an anti-sanctuary enforcement bill that would criminalize and punish communities that try to create welcoming and protective environment for immigrants with heavy fines and restrictions of fund, in an effort to continue separating our families through deportations. here

Gus Bilirakis: Reaction To The Robert Mueller Indictments
"I support investigative efforts as we work to ensure that our democratic process is protected from external interference, but it's important that we are not distracted from the important work at hand like tax reform. Rest assured though, that anyone who has violated the law should swiftly be brought to justice. To date, I have not seen proof that there was any wrongdoing by the President or collusion between his campaign and Russia." Source

University of South Florida: Let Adjuncts Vote
University of South Florida adjuncts filed for a union months ago. Ever since, USF has done everything it can to keep them from voting.
It’s not right to deny adjuncts their right to a fair and free election. Add your name at right and tell USF to let adjuncts vote!
Adjuncts filed for a union election last semester, but the University has employed every possible tactic to block their vote. They’ve even tried to claim that adjuncts aren’t employees. It’s time for USF to stop dragging its feet and let adjuncts vote.

Beware of so-called Hispanic organizations such as the Libre Initiative.

In Florida mailings in Spanish and English supporting a Florida law that encourages charter schools in communities with low-performing schools. After Rick Scott, a Republican, signed it into law, the state Democratic Party said he’d “declared war on our public schools.”
