A giant, union-backed political group that knocked on an estimated 3 million doors in Florida in 2016 is revving up for an even more ambitious effort this year aimed at electing Democrats up and down the ballot, passing the felon voting rights initiative and defeating a ballot measure to reduce local control over charter schools.
For Our Future Florida, part of a $70 million national battleground state effort funded by a coalition of labor groups, never actually stopped working in Florida after Trump won the state in 2016. Alongside other progressive groups including Indivisible, Women’s March, Mi Familia Vota, Florida Voices for Health, and Progress Florida, it has been helped put together women’s marches, phone banks, and empty chair town hall meetings spotlighting Republicans avoiding public events.
“We’ve helped organize over 500 rallies, trainings and town halls and knocked on 302,714 oors since the 2016 election,” said Field Director Jenn Whitcomb.
