For President & Vice President of the United States

Vice President Kamala Harris has devoted her career to fighting for the people. As the daughter of parents who brought her to civil rights marches in a stroller, she was inspired to tackle injustice from an early age. She took that mission to county courtrooms, the California Attorney General’s office, the United States Senate, and the White House. Now she is running for President of the United States to continue protecting our freedoms, delivering justice, and expanding opportunity so that every American can not just get by, but get ahead.

Debbie Mucarsel-Powell

Debbie Mucarsel-Powell is a proud mother and Floridian running to be Florida’s next U.S. Senator.

Since then, she has delivered hundreds of millions of dollars in transit investments and Everglades restoration funds to Florida, written the bill to expand Medicare, and fought to protect Floridians’ freedoms. Debbie and her husband Robert live in Miami and have three children.
