Following the Florida Supreme Court’s decisions to allow abortion to be voted on and to enact a ban on abortion supported by Senator Rick Scott, Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Debbie Mucarsel-Powell has started a statewide Florida Freedom Tour.
Debbie Mucarsel-Powell is traveling around the state to discuss the fight for freedom and to hold Republican Senator Rick Scott responsible for his strong and public support for Florida’s near-total abortion ban, which has very few exceptions for cases of rape or incest.
“Democrat Debbie Mucarsel-Powell said that if Rick Scott believes he can support a national abortion ban in the Senate and a nearly complete abortion ban in Florida without facing any consequences, he is mistaken.” “As someone who identifies as Latina, I have witnessed similar attacks on our democratic rights in the past.” I will not let Rick Scott take away our freedoms. I am happy to join the almost 70% of people in Florida who want to ensure that abortion remains accessible. I am prepared to stand alongside them this November as we work together to safeguard our basic rights.

She organized a gathering in Pembroke Pines where she met with State Representative Marie Woodson and leaders from the Haitian-American community.
Debbie For Florida’s new digital ad, called “Banned,” highlights Senator Rick Scott’s strong support for Florida’s upcoming near-total abortion ban. This will be a major issue for Florida Republicans in the upcoming election.
“Floridians won’t just watch as Rick Scott, an extremist who is out of touch, attempts to strip away our democratic rights,” said Debbie Mucarsel-Powell. “The people in Florida are very passionate – they are uniting to oppose Rick Scott, who supports a national abortion ban and is a strong advocate for Florida’s near-total abortion ban.” We will keep holding Rick Scott responsible for his actions that threaten our rights. We will support the majority of Floridians who want to protect access to abortion. We will spread this message throughout Florida to win in November.
