My name is Candis — I just graduated from the NNU Medicare for All Leadership School and I’ve been helping to lead the organizing work in my home state of Florida. I wanted to share some very promising news from Florida’s Ninth Congressional District, where we’ve been organizing to call on Rep. Darren Soto to support Medicare for All.
Last week we held an event with nurses and community members outside Rep. Darren Soto’s Kissimmee office to deliver hundreds of constituent signatures calling on him to sign on as a cosponsor of Medicare for All in Congress.
Following that event, several local TV stations dedicated entire segments to our campaign – naming Rep. Soto, showing our action, and amplifying our demand for him to co-sponsor the Medicare for All Act.

By organizing actions like this, we’re able to generate a wave of pressure that can be amplified in the media and get the attention of our representatives. And we know this plan is working — this clip ran a total of 13 times across three local TV stations. This is exactly the kind of local campaign that we know works. We just have to keep it up.
More national attention from across the country is vital to carrying our momentum across the finish line. Please help make our demand to Rep. Soto loud and clear by amplifying this news segment and together we can secure another co-sponsor of Medicare for All.
Grateful to you all,
Candis Roby
