I'm Pia Dandiya, and I'm running as a Democrat for Congress to represent Florida's 21st District.

After years of standing up for students in the classroom and working families in our communities, I know it's time to take that fight to Washington, JOHN.

I am a first-generation American, born to Indian immigrants and raised in Jupiter. Today, I live in Palm Beach Gardens with my husband and son. I know firsthand that our district deserves a representative who wants to fight for working families, who has dedicated their life to creating opportunities for others, and who will fight to keep the American dream alive. That's what I've done throughout my career in education and public service.

Will you become a founding donor by pitching in $5 and helping me launch this campaign? It’s time we unseat Brian Mast and provide authentic, results-oriented leadership for this community.

I studied Government at Harvard and got my Master's in Education from Boston University, but honestly, my best education came from the classroom. I began my teaching career as a math teacher through Teach For America, working with middle school students, where I helped them achieve some of the highest growth scores in the entire state.

At just 28, I took a leap of faith and founded my own high school in Harlem, New York. People thought I was too young or too inexperienced. But Democracy Prep Endurance High School became one of the top-performing schools in New York. Here's what I'm most proud of: every single one of our graduates was accepted to college, despite 86% of them living below the poverty line.

Then I was chosen for my experience in fighting poverty to serve as a White House Fellow at the Department of Education and Domestic Policy Council. This role taught me how policies developed in Washington can lead to economic prosperity for families across the nation.

I'm running for Congress to put people first again. Elected leadership shouldn’t be about headlines or political fights – it should be about you, and I will — be a representative committed to the economic freedom of every American.

I'm ready to take everything I've learned—from the classroom to the principal's office to the White House—and put it to work for you in Congress. But first, I need your support.

If you're with me, please chip in $3, $35, or even $50 right now to become a founding donor. Help us flip FL-21 and put working people at the forefront in Washington.
