John,

Two of our fiercest champions in Broward County, Mayor Nan Rich and School Board Member Sarah Leonardi, have once again been endorsed by Ruth’s List Florida! We are so excited to share this news with you and talk about why these trailblazing elected local government leaders need your help. 

Nan Rich has served in state and local government in Florida since 2000, and for over 2 decades has served as one of Florida’s leading champions of social justice. During her 4 years in the Florida House and 8 years in the Florida Senate, Nan worked across the aisle to protect the welfare of children, seniors, and the disabled. As a Florida Senator, she was the first woman to be elected as the Senate Democratic Leader. In 2016, she was elected to the Broward County Commission and continues to serve her community today as Mayor of Broward County. In her incredible career in leadership, she has received numerous honors and endorsements – including being appointed by President Bill Clinton to serve on the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Council. 

Mayor Rich is the incumbent Mayor in 2024, but she has a Republican challenger. Can you chip in to her campaign fund today to help her keep Broward blue?

Sarah Leonardi is a dedicated fighter for Broward students, parents, and teachers. Since 2020, as a Broward County School Board Member, Sarah has been a powerful advocate for creating the best educational experience possible for all in our school system – especially for those working and learning at older schools in the area that often do not receive adequate resources and attention. Sarah brings essential experience and representation to the school board, both as a parent and educator. She is a young mother raising her family in Broward, and has nearly a decade of teaching experience in Broward public high schools. Sarah was voted Teacher of the Year at Coconut Creek High School in 2016, and has earned endorsements from the Broward Teachers Union, SAVE, Equality Florida, AFL-CIO, and Run For Something.

Sarah is being challenged by a MAGA Republican, and she’s on the ballot in less than 60 days. She needs your help to win re-election and continue serving her community. Can you donate to her campaign to help Sarah win this August? 

John, you can make a real impact in Florida by helping us re-elect these women leaders in Broward County, a Democratic stronghold in the South. Can Nan and Sarah count on you? 

Together,

Cassidy Whitaker
