Perry Thurston for Florida Attorney General

FOR ALL FLORIDIANS

The only way to change Tallahassee is to change the people we send. Rick Scott, Pam Bondi, and the Republican legislature spent the legislative session waging ideological crusades and short changing Florida's middle class. It is wrong when we cut taxes for corporations but don't raise the minimum wage. It is wrong when we get between a woman and her doctor but don't expand access to Medicaid. And it's wrong when we spend public dollars on private schools while cutting scholarships for our students.
We have to change it. But I need your help.
