I’ll tell you more, but first — Angie just won one of the biggest primary
upsets of the entire cycle, and her momentum is undeniable. Now she’s
fighting to flip a critical U.S. Senate seat in Florida. [ [link removed] ]Will you split

Angie Nixon learned the power of organizing and the meaning of solidarity
from her mother, a union member who worked two jobs just to keep food on
the table. That lived experience shaped Angie into the resilient advocate,
fierce union organizer, and proven fighter for Floridians that she is
today.

She grew up attending Jacksonville’s public schools, where she was bused
across town because her predominantly Black neighborhood school didn’t
have the resources it deserved. That’s exactly where her power as a leader
comes from: she knows what it looks like when working families get the
short end of the stick, because she was one of them.

Long before there was a seat to run for, Angie was doing the hard work of
building power in her own community.

She co-founded Melanin Market to support local businesses, opened
Natalie’s Nook with her daughter to fight food insecurity in her own
neighborhood, and later opened Cafe Resistance, a bookstore and coffee
shop in Jacksonville that offers tutoring, mental health workshops, a food
pantry, and a safe space for teens to learn and thrive. Angie’s history in
her community proves she’s always had the instincts to take action. She
doesn’t wait for permission — she sees a need, and meets it.

As a State Representative, Angie has expanded childcare access for
thousands of families, taken on a major grocery chain for price gouging
Floridians at the register, introduced legislation to unmask the ICE
agents terrorizing immigrant communities across the state, and led the
fight against Ron DeSantis’ racist redistricting maps (even bringing out a
megaphone on the House floor to speak up for Florida voters).

Her opponent, Ashley Moody, was never even elected to this Senate seat.
She was hand-picked by Trump’s buddy Ron DeSantis to fill it. Moody’s
tenure as Attorney General was mired in misappropriated Medicaid funds to
the tune of $10 million. And in the Senate, she voted to let ACA subsidies
expire, a decision that’s already caused over 440,000 Floridians to lose
their health coverage. She’s spent her entire career answering to power —
not the people of Florida.

Angie is different. She’s fighting for a future shaped by teachers,
nurses, parents, and workers. In the Senate, she’ll join the progressive
coalition fighting for Medicare for All, push for universal childcare, a
national rent freeze and moratorium on evictions, stronger union
protections, and a $25 federal minimum wage. She’ll rally hard to get
corporate money out of politics and rein in the tech companies and data
center giants driving up costs for working people.

If she wins in November, she’ll be the first Black person Florida has ever
elected to the U.S. Senate.

And listen John, I said it
before and I’ll say it again: we’re not writing Florida off. Nobody is
pretending that this will be an easy fight. But Angie has already
accomplished something enormous this cycle, upsetting the
establishment-backed opponent who outraised her more than 16:1 — proof
that the many really can beat the money. She’s truly an exciting candidate
with the power to shake up the state of this race. She just needs the
resources and a strong grassroots movement behind her to win.

That’s where you come in. Leaders We Deserve doesn’t take a single dollar
from corporate PACs or special interests — and neither does Angie. Our
ability to back candidates like her depends entirely on supporters like
you showing up when it counts.
