Senate Race

Debbie Mucarsel-Powell (D-FL)

U.S. Senator

Debbie Mucarsel-Powell

Democrat - Florida

POLITICAL OPPONENT: 

Rick Scott

Former Rep. Mucarsel-Powell is an American immigrant and the first South American immigrant elected to Congress. She lost her father to gun violence and is a strong advocate for gun safety reform policy. Florida’s 2024 senate race is critical to ensuring the reproductive freedoms of all Floridians. Current Florida Senator Rick Scott is running for re-election and his heavy support for a near-total abortion ban makes Mucarsel-Powell’s victory all-the-more essential.
