Promising new and innovative leadership, Godwin said he will help prepare Tampa to be a 21st century city while protecting its history and character. more

Asher’s Choice for Activist of the Year
I have two choices for Activist of the Year!
First I want to recognize Dayna Lazarus for her tireless efforts to advocate for equitable transit and social justice. Our community is stronger thanks to her work!
My second choice honors Glen Eich for his outstanding job in galvanizing the “Ybor 6” to oppose the Rays Stadium being built in Ybor — his efforts helped to save historic Ybor from becoming drowned in commercialist chaos. Thank you Dayna and Glen!

Over the past few decades, Floridians frustrated that the Legislature won’t advance important reforms have gone directly to the ballot box to pass amendments to the Florida Constitution. But that could get harder under a new proposal by two Republican legislators.

Justice For Andrew Joseph III
This is your pledge and petition to divest from the Florida State Fairgrounds for justice. In 2014, Andrew Joseph III, who was 14, was killed due to negligence from both the Florida State Fairground and the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office. As such, we will not support the fairgrounds with our dollars until they at least follow through with our expected demands.
