No matter what we look like
or where we come from, most of us believe in creating a better future for our kids. Together, we can create a Florida where prosperity is shared and where every person has the freedom to thrive.
To do this, we must learn
about our shared past, including the history of discriminatory laws and policies that have limited the ability to thrive for most Floridians, particularly for Floridians of color. We must also learn about the times when we came together across our differences to create laws and policies that benefited all of us.
Criminal Justice Timeline
Together, we can create a Florida that promotes fairness and equity and extends the opportunity for justice to every Floridian. This means reckoning with the ways in which our criminal justice system has disproportionately targeted Black people, not just in our past, but also our present.
Tax Policy Timeline
Taxes should fund things we share. Think about your library, school, or favorite park. These are places where we learn about the world or reconnect with nature; places that catalyze opportunity, tie us together as a community, and where people can get what they need to build a successful future.
Learning from Our Policy Past to Shape Our Future
By learning about our past, we give ourselves the knowledge we need to shape a better future – one in which every Floridian, of every race in every corner of our state, can reach their full potential.
When We Come Together
We all lose when policy decisions limit who can thrive. But when Floridians come together to pursue a better future, everyone wins.
