Chip in today to elect Dem govs across the country >>
Democratic governors are leading the fight against Donald Trump and his administration – and they need your help. Trump and his allies have hundreds of millions of dollars to attack our candidates, and we have to make sure we’ve got the resources to fight back. With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?
DGA Statement on the Florida Gubernatorial Primaries
“Rick Scott just can’t be trusted to fight for the people of Florida. As a corporate executive, he oversaw massive Medicare fraud that resulted in the largest fine in the history of the country at the time and pled the Fifth 75 times to avoid incriminating himself. As governor, he slashed K-12 education by $1.3 billion in his first year in office, reduced funding for colleges and universities by $300 million, cut Bright Futures Scholarships in half, and raised property taxes on seniors. And he did it all to pay for tax breaks for special interests, the super-wealthy, and major corporations.
“When he wins in November, Charlie Crist will build an economy that works for everyone, not just the wealthiest. He’ll restore the Scott education cuts, reduce property taxes, raise the minimum wage, and demand equal pay for equal work. He’ll put the people of Florida first, like he’s done his entire career. We are proud to support his campaign and look forward to his victory in the fall.”
