Dana Young Going Full Throttle While Janet Cruz Uses Cloak of Invisibility
Cruz’ late entry into the race infuriated the progressive wing of the party as she essentially forced attorney Bob Buesing to quit the race.
---
Self-styled kingmaker Alex Sink, corporatist and the state’s former Chief Financial Officer in what seems a lifetime ago, threatened Buesing with the denial of crucial endorsements and financial support if he contested Cruz in a primary. Sink’s power within the Democratic party is incomprehensible.

On balance, the candidates she has supported have lost. Sink has shown an uncanny ability
to fail.

Stop Rick Scott's Beach Privatization Law
At the behest of powerful property owners and their hired-gun lobbyists, this past session the Legislature passed and Gov. Scott signed House Bill 631, which allows some waterfront homeowners to label beachgoers as trespassers and have them kicked off the beach. Now, a storm of controversy has erupted around the new law, which upends Florida’s traditional “customary-use” rule allowing the public to access private beaches throughout the state.
Help keep Florida’s world famous beaches open to the public. Sign our petition to the Florida legislature calling for a repeal of Gov. Scott’s beach privatization law.

Organize Florida Endorses Mayor Andrew Gillum for Florida Governor
Organize Florida, a community-based, nonprofit member organization dedicated to the principles of social, racial, and economic justice for all, enthusiastically announces its endorsement of Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum for Governor of Florida. This year’s gubernatorial race may be the state's most critical, and we support Gillum’s stance on women and families, healthcare, immigration, raising the minimum wage and criminal justice.
As Governor, Gillum would support the state legislature ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment. He believes in equal work for equal pay and would push for equal pay legislation that levels the playing field for women in the workplace. When Governor Rick Scott and the Republican legislature tried to defund Planned Parenthood, Gillum opposed any attempt to make it harder for women to access quality healthcare.
He believes healthcare is a fundamental right, and he will fight the new health care premium increases and the attack on Obamacare. Gillum will work to expand Medicaid, strengthen the Affordable Care Act and has proposed passing a law protecting people with pre-existing conditions from being denied coverage. He will work to reform our bail system, which disenfranchises people of lower economic means,.
“Andrew Gillum understands the critical issues facing women and families, the working class and marginalized communities in our state,” said Debbie Soto, president of the board of Organize Florida. “He is a compassionate and dedicated leader who is unafraid to challenge the powerful and do the right thing for all the people of Florida - no matter what they look like. He shares our values and we are so excited to support his candidacy for Governor of Florida.”
Organize Florida is a community-based, nonprofit member organization of low and moderate income people dedicated to the principles of social, racial, and economic justice and the promotion of an equal and fair Florida for all.
