FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE March 6, 2024 Contact Latino Victory Fund Endorses Debbie Mucarsel-Powell for U.S. Senate Miami, FL – Today, Latino Victory Fund joined dozens of organizations, leaders, and advocates in supporting Debbie Mucarsel-Powell as Florida’s next senator. “Debbie Mucarsel-Powell will champion opportunity and inclusion, and she has the grit to push back on the GOP’s vicious attacks on fundamental rights critical to our democracy, attacks that do not reflect Floridian’s values,” said Sindy Benavides, Latino Victory Fund President & CEO. “Her life experience speaks for itself—she’s an immigrant who came to the U.S. fleeing violence and in search of a better life, and she knows what it means to struggle to make ends meet. Debbie will fight to keep taxes from becoming a strain on families, protect hard-earned Social Security and Medicare benefits, and protect Floridians’ most important rights, including women’s reproductive rights and the LGBTQ+ community. She’s a community leader who’s in this race because she knows Florida can be a prosperous, fair and a safe place for people to thrive in, regardless of their background. Latino Victory Fund is proud to stand with Debbie in this historic race, and will work tirelessly to ensure she becomes the first Latina in Florida elected to the U.S. Senate.” “As a Latina, I am especially honored to have earned the support of the Latino Victory Fund,” said Debbie Mucarsel-Powell. “I’m proud to have been the first South American immigrant to represent my community in Congress, and now I’m proud to be the first Democratic Latina to run for Senate in Florida. Representation matters, and I’m ready to deliver for my community. Rick Scott is a self-serving politician who has done nothing in the Senate to deliver for Latinos across Florida, from our affordability crisis to our gun violence crisis. I’m proud to have Latino Victory Fund by my side as we fight to move Florida forward.” |
