\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Since the Florida Supreme Court decided that a six-week abortion bill would go into effect on May 1 and Reproductive Rights would be on the ballot this November, Florida is now considered to be in play by the Biden\/Harris<\/strong> Administration. Every state where Abortion has appeared on the ballot so far has won! Including the ruby Red State of Kansas.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Shortly thereafter, Wheels up on Air Force One and President Biden<\/strong> arrived in Tampa. He made a special visit to the Hillsborough NAACP office before his address at Hillsborough Community College.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 He personally met the State President of the Florida Democratic Black Caucus and the President of the Hillsborough Democratic Black Caucus. He also opened his first field office in Temple Terrace.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 On May 1, Vice President Kamala Harris<\/strong> visited Jacksonville to remind Floridians that over 11 million women will be effected by the new law stripping away their reproductive rights.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Despite what some may say, Black Voters are still the Heart and Soul of the Democratic Party and intend to vote for their issues in November. The issues include Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, Stopping Book Banning, Teaching of African American History and fighting Voting Suppression. Black people have no intention of going backwards on civil rights!<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Governor of Florida has changed the voting laws and has canceled all Vote by Mail Ballot REQUESTS and has over 24,000 Black voters in Hillsborough County marked as inactive if they did not vote in 2022.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Voting suppression tactics that Nikki Fried,<\/strong> Chair of the Florida Democratic Party is determined to fight against. She has already flipped the Jacksonville Mayor and State House 35 seats from RED to BLUE and she is just getting started.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hillsborough County Supervisor of Elections Craig Latimer<\/strong> sent out letters to voters who have not renewed their vote by mail ballots. The Republicans on the County Commission then voted to decrease his budget by $200,000. Former State House Representative Sean Shaw<\/strong> and Afro Latina Patricia Alonzo<\/strong> have both filed to run for Hillsborough County Commission to flip it back BLUE.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 With Andrew Warren<\/strong> running again for State Attorney, the Democratic Party ticket is running to win!<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Democratic Party supports Unions and all the Building trades are hiring paid apprentices, job for life, benefits and a pension.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
