Come and have drinks with State Senators Jose Javier Rodriguez, Annette Taddeo, and Jason Pizzo, and State House Representatives Joe Geller, Kionne McGhee, Shevrin Jones, Nick Duran, Dotie Joseph, Michael Grieco and more. Hear what's on their minds and share with them the issues that matter to you.

The Miami-Dade Democratic Party set records for fundraising and attendance at its annual Blue Gala this weekend, illustrating a new level of energy for Democrats in Florida’s biggest county one year before the presidential election. Presented under the theme, “It’s on Us,” the gala’s keynote speaker was Congressman Hakeem Jeffries and featured Florida Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried.
