Miami Dade Dems Stand With Barbara Jordan
The Miami-Dade Dems Newsletter, February 14, 2020
During Black History Month, let us each take the opportunity to celebrate the importance of Black history and the outstanding contributions Black Americans have made to our society and to the history of Miami-Dade County. Black history is American history and we should celebrate Black history every month.
On Wednesday, February 5, Miami-Dade welcomed Stacey Abrams, former Minority Leader of the Georgia House of Representatives and founder of Fair Fight, and Fair Count to our county for a roundtable discussion about voter protection. Leader Abrams spoke to a roundtable of College Democrats about the importance of exercising the right to vote. “Voting is power and I will not let anyone steal my power. No one is going to say how American I am, I’m going to tell you at the ballot box," she said. She was welcomed by Florida Democratic Party Chairwoman Terrie Rizzo, and introduced by County Commissioner Jean Monestime.

Miami, FL: On Thursday February 6th, 2020, the Miami-Dade Democratic Party transmitted its complaint against the previously admonished Rep. Gaetz by mail to the Florida bar.
In so doing, Miami-Dade Democratic Party has taken action to hold one of President Trump's top defenders accountable for violating legal ethics by risking America’s national security to “grandstand” in Congress which entailed breaking into a secure, compartmented information facility, then ordering pizza. The party has filed a bar complaint against Florida’s 1st District Congressman, Rep. Matt Gaetz.
January Newsletter
It’s hard to believe, but January is over. We've endured one of the most hate-filled State of the Union addresses, and watched the Senate abdicate its constitutional responsibility. It's now on us to protect our democracy. There are just nine months until the November election, fewer than 200 days til the all-important August primary, and just over 40 days til Florida’s Presidential Preference Primary in March. Every moment counts in our fight to restore our democracy. Read on to hear what we’ve been doing this month and how you can get involved.

University and college students came out in droves in 2018 when given the chance to vote in the midterm election on their campuses. Over 60,000 people used an on-campus early voting location in 2018, and ultimately the election was decided by under 30,000 votes. However, shortly after the midterms, Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis signed legislation making it difficult for universities and colleges to host early voting sites, thus further suppressing the youth vote.
