Dem Tom Suozzi won by 8pts, showing us that any GOP seat can be FLIPPED. Republicans are vulnerable, even in FL. We only trail in FL-15 by 3 points. If we show up & turn out for Kris, we can flip this seat too! Please give what you can and share Kris's story so we can WIN!
The Blue Wave continues in NY! Let's keep it rolling in Florida and flip another seat!
Last night's special election to replace disgraced Republican Congressman George Santos in New York's 3rd District was a huge win for Democrats, who had struggled in that district for years.
NY-3 went to Trump in '20 & in '22 Santos beat his Dem opponent by a lot, but last night Dems won BIG & flipped this seat. We can do the same thing here with Kris Fitzgerald's election. It seemed inevitable that Republicans would win again, but Dems did the work, and it paid off.
Kris' campaign is going strong. She's the presumptive Dem nominee for FL15. We can win this race & defeat DeSantis’ former Sec of State to give Dems another seat in Congress. We're within a few pts of victory! Send a message to DeSantis & his allies: we reject you, once & for all
Kris Fitzgerald outlasted DeSantis: He's out. She's still in it to win.
She was one of the first elected officials DeSantis removed from office, overriding the will of the voters, but she didn’t back down.
That’s more than we can say for DeSantis.
The 2024 election is just one year away. After this week's victories, I'm full of hope for Florida's future. A Democratic House is critical to the security of our nation, and the voters reminded us that when we stand together, we win. -KF #standwithkris
Across the nation on Tues, Dems showed up & won big. Our party shattered expectations! Proud of the candidates, who ran strong campaigns centered on reproductive freedom, inclusion, & protecting democracy. Also proud of the voters who committed the time to make their voices heard
For decades, people within this country have suggested ways to solve this problem without trampling on our rights. It’s time for our leaders to listen and to act. #standwithkris
Over the weekend, just outside of my district, a shooting occurred in Ybor City. It left sixteen injured and two dead, including a 14yo boy—right about my daughter's age. It is heartbreaking to see incidents like this happening in communities all over our country, day after day.
As a veteran and gun owner, I understand well the power of guns—and their danger. The time is now for Congress to pass common-sense legislation to reduce the number of guns on the street and make it harder for disputes to end in deadly violence.
Each morning, the thought of you excites me for the day ahead. Life is full of challenges, but you stand resolute. As you face womanhood, I pray you show continual love and grace for others, do your best, and NEVER give up on your dreams. I love you, Riah Nacole! Happy birthday!
Sweet 16. Your coming of age voyage has docked for a brief moment. We celebrate today with you, because of you, and for you: a leader & trailblazer—brilliant, thoughtful, full of love and care. I am grateful that I get to call you daughter.
If we want a govt that works for the people—or works, period—Democratic control of the House is essential. Flipping seats is our top priority. In FL15, Kris trails her Republican opponent by just 2 points, and we're closing that gap. When she wins, we all win. #standwithkris

Their own Speaker McCarthy came across the aisle to fund the government & prevent economic disaster for millions of Americans. MAGA extremists reacted by removing him from office. Republicans have once again demonstrated that they are not capable of running a functional Congress.
It was an honor to sponsor & attend the @HCFLDems annual Kennedy King Gala last weekend! It was an amazing night. Team Kris got to see a who’s who of Democratic leaders & activists from Hillsborough and beyond, sharing our story & gaining support for the campaign #standwithkris
Years ago, fresh out of high school, I had the honor of serving in the Air Force, stationed both domestically and overseas. The experience was unforgettable. I am proud to have been a part of this amazing organization. Happy birthday, USAF!

On this day 76 years ago, the United States Air Force was established as its own branch of our nation's military. Our Air Force is the largest and most technologically-advanced in the world, and does much more than aerial combat, like protecting the U.S. from cyber attacks.
Over the weekend, nature wreaked havoc on communities overseas. Morocco was devastated by an earthquake that left thousands of casualties. In Libya, catastrophic flooding left over 12k missing or dead. People are grasping for hope after losing everything.
We will pray for Morocco and Libya, but we must also give aid to help them recover. If you can afford to give something to those affected, please check the links below to find out how you can help.
