Retire Rubio 2022 Help me build a grassroots movement that can fight back   Marco Rubio is already attacking me, John. First in a primetime interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity and now on Twitter, Rubio is taking pages out of his idol Donald’s playbook: Divisive rhetoric. Misr…

that stings

Retire Rubio 2022 John, In 2020, the Florida Senate race was the closest one in the country – 49.93% to 50.05% – a race that narrow is frustrating.  But it means two things: Floridians are ready for change -- and we're on the tip of the iceberg right now.  Early investment and gr…

we won’t

Retire Rubio 2022 John,  Marco Rubio wants you to forget he opposed COVID relief for your family.  Val Demings supported stimulus checks while Marco Rubio opposed them. Val Demings stood up for democracy while Marco Rubio cowered.  Floridians deserve a Senator who will show up an…

"crazy nonsense"

Retire Rubio 2022 John, Senator Marco Rubio spent the week leading up to Juneteenth calling well-documented and suffered racial inequities in health care "crazy nonsense."  Conversely, here's how his opponent, Congresswoman Val Demings, put it last year: "The disparities in our h…

paranoia

Retire Rubio 2022 John, Marco seems a little...anxious. I daresay – he's afraid of his Democratic challenger, Congresswoman Val Demings. In a sort of frenzied attempt at fundraising, Marco asked a national audience to donate to his campaign, expressing concerns that a potential 2…

Retire Rubio 2022 John – The momentum to elect Representative Val Demings to the U.S. Senate – and retire Marco Rubio – is growing. And it’s not hard to see why: She supports the January 6th Commission. Marco has said he’ll vote against it. She’s introduced and supported legisla…

Marco wants you to believe $300 a month is too much.

Retire Rubio 2022 John, Marco Rubio makes $174,000 a year. Did you know that? In fact, all Members of Congress make a comfortable living wage – thanks in part, to the efforts of a labor movement that ensured a livable wage for a day’s work.  That’s about $3,346.15 a week in guaran…
