Florida’s Leading LGBTQ+ Groups Proudly Endorse Debbie Mucarsel-Powell For U.S. Senate

Miami, FL – Today, Equality Florida and SAVE Action PAC joined countless organizations, leaders, and advocates in endorsing Debbie Mucarsel-Powell for U.S. Senate.

"Equality Florida is excited to announce our endorsement of Debbie Mucarsel-Powell for U.S. Senate,” said Equality Florida Executive Director Nadine Smith. “During her time in Congress, Rep. Mucarsel-Powell was a tough and highly effective fighter for equality and fairness. She is exactly the champion we need in the US Senate."

"SAVE Action PAC is honored to support Debbie Mucarsel-Powell in her bid for U.S. Senate, and stand with her as a true ally of the LGBTQ+ community,” said SAVE Executive Director Todd Delmay. “In South Florida, we've had the opportunity to see Debbie's commitment to equality and fairness up close, and we know that she will be an effective advocate pushing back on the radical agendas that have come to harm our community and especially our young people. Florida needs a leader like Debbie that will be able to represent all Floridians. As Executive Director of SAVE, I have seen the harms that anti-LGBTQ+ policies and leaders have brought to Florida, and I can't wait to see her elected as Florida's next Senator."

“I am honored to be joined by leaders of the LGBTQ+ community in our fight to retire Rick Scott,” said Debbie Mucarsel-Powell. “Extremist politicians like Rick Scott have no place controlling Floridians’ bodies or our free speech, but he continues to attack our children and target the most vulnerable among us. Florida has been ground zero for these extreme attacks for years and we have had enough. As a Congresswoman, I co-sponsored and voted for the Equality Act, providing anti-discrimination protections for the LGBTQ+ community. As Senator, I will always protect the LGBTQ+ community and our fundamental freedoms.”
