EMILYs List Endorses State Rep. Angie Nixon in Florida’s U.S. Senate Race

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today EMILYs List, the nation’s largest resource for women in politics, endorsed state Rep. Angie Nixon in Florida’s U.S. Senate race. EMILYs List President Jessica Mackler released the following statement:

“State Rep. Angie Nixon has spent her career fighting for hardworking Floridians. As a grassroots organizer and mom, she knows what it means for people to work harder and still struggle to afford their bills. While Ashley Moody stands with Donald Trump and his billionaire-first agenda, Angie will stand up for working families, take on corruption, and make government work for the people it serves. Angie has built a powerful grassroots campaign that has firmly put this race on the map, and EMILYs List is proud to support her in the fight to flip this seat.”

Angie Nixon is a Florida state Representative, union organizer, and mom who has spent her career fighting for hardworking Floridians. As a state representative, she has delivered lasting results for working families by expanding childcare, taking on corporate price-gouging in the state House, and led the fight against DeSantis’ unfair voting maps. As a grassroots organizer, Angie served as executive director of Florida for All, a statewide coalition that has registered new voters while raising resources for campaigns and issue-based organizing across the state. At home in Jacksonville, she runs a bookstore and community hub focused on bringing healthy food and educational opportunities to local families. Angie is fighting for better opportunities for Florida families and children, lower costs and higher wages, and a government that stands up to corrupt billionaires and corporate greed — while opening the door for all people.
