- Fair wages and benefits
- Advocating for seniors
- Social Security expansion
- Anti war profiteering
- Has enacted more bills into law than any other member of the House (#1 out of 435)

Go Alan!
Yes, I’m in Florida. Grayson is good news.
Still, Rick Scott has his eye on the Senate in 2018, after his governorship expires and Bill Nelson’s 3rd term ends. (Some people never retire!) We FL progressives need to remain vigilant – it is our patriotic duty to the rest of the Nation. :-)
I like his message, Horty. Thanks for this post.
