THE DEMOCRATIC
MESSAGE:
PUTTING FLORIDIANS FIRST - BECAUSE
SECURITY BEGINS AT
HOME
We put Floridians first because both you and I know that security begins at home. Democrats will ensure that Florida has a government that is both effective and efficient and that works for everyone at all levels. People know government should respond to the needs of the citizens first, and that’s the way Democrats plan to lead.
The people of Florida have made it crystal clear that they want government to secure them today and for the future. But it’s not just about the wars overseas, though it is important that we are successful there, too. Real security begins at home, and the people of Florida know that.
That’s why they want the leaders they elect to ensure:
- stronger neighborhood schools;
- an economy that works for everyone;
- quality healthcare they can afford; and
- real and effective homeland security.
THE REAL STATE OF THE STATE
For
years Governor Bush and the Republicans have
given us political spin about their
performance. When Jeb Bush delivered his
final State of the State address on March 7,
2006 it was no different. But the REAL
state of the state is more sobering: a lack of
new high-paying jobs, falling median income,
and an increasing number of Floridians without
health insurance.
Earlier this year, State Representative Dan Gelber (D-Miami Beach) wrote a glaring expose on the Republicans' policies.
