Building a Democratic Party around a popular consensus means organizing around the issues that matter to working people and building a movement that can actually win.

On August 18, we have the opportunity to elect a real progressive to represent part of Miami. Vote Oliver Larkin on Election Day and help build a Democratic Party that fights for working people.

And if you want to help build that kind of Democratic Party beyond Election Day, join the Democratic Progressive Caucus of Florida and one of our local chapters. We’re organizing across Florida to build a stronger, more progressive Democratic Party from the ground up.

🗳️ Vote Oliver Larkin on August 18.
🤝 Join the movement.

The People’s Progressive Caucus of Miami is launching our campaign to end Miami’s 287(g) agreement with ICE! (🔗 in bio!) This dangerous agreement empowers local police to carry out federal immigration enforcement.

We demand that Mayor Eileen Higgins and the Miami City Commission hold a vote to end it. Every signature builds public pressure.

✍️Sign the petition. Share it. Help us hold the vote.

📬Call or Email the Miami City commissioners and ask them to vote to end the 287(G) agreement with ICE:

Mayor Eileen Higgins — 305-250-5300 — [email protected]

Christine King (District 5 Commission Chair) — 305-250-5390 — [email protected]

Damian Pardo (District 2) — 305-250-5333 — [email protected]

Rolando Escalona (District 3) — 305-250-5380 — [email protected]

Miguel Angel Gabela (District 1) — 305-250-5430 — [email protected]

Ralph “Rafael” Rosado (District 4) — 305-250-5420 — [email protected]

👉What is 287(G)?:
Section 287(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act allows ICE to delegate specified immigration-enforcement functions to trained state or local law-enforcement officers operating under ICE direction and supervision. ICE currently describes three program models. Miami’s agreement has been described in local reporting as authorizing trained Miami Police Department officers to participate in immigration enforcement through a joint task-force arrangement.
Supporters present the program as a public-safety partnership. Opponents argue that involving local police in federal immigration enforcement creates fear, weakens trust in police, risks racial profiling and family separation, and makes immigrant residents less likely to report crimes or cooperate with local authorities.

Florida is not deep red. Florida is deeply underorganized.

There are millions of voters in this state who are not registered with either major party. How many of them would be Democrats if the party actually fought for working people, showed up year round, and offered something beyond corporate caution and consultant approved moderation?

The “electability” argument has been used for years to tell progressives to wait our turn, lower our expectations, and support candidates who supposedly know how to win.

But if conservative moderate Democrats were so electable, Florida would not have a Republican dominated legislature and a Democratic Party struggling for relevance.

And part of the problem is that some people rail against Democratic insiders while still enjoying a level of access to elected officials, consultants, donors, and influencers that regular working people will never get.

That access shapes the conversation. It decides who gets taken seriously, who gets dismissed as unrealistic, and whose politics are treated as “too far left” before voters ever get a real choice.

Progressives are not the liability.

The liability is a party culture that refuses to organize, refuses to build trust, and refuses to give people a reason to believe.

Florida does not need more insider caution dressed up as realism.

Florida needs year round organizing, working class power, and candidates who are actually rooted in the communities they claim to represent.

Anyways, vote for Angie Nixon.

Join us on May 28th for the Progressive Caucus General Body Meeting via Zoom.

We’ll be discussing what we’re building, the issues we’re organizing around, and how we can turn ideas into action through collective effort and community organizing. If you’re looking for a space to plug in, strategize, and help push meaningful change forward, we’d love to have you there.

Change only happens when people come together to make it happen.

This weekend marked the first Democratic Progressive Caucus conference in a few years.

The Miami chapter was proud to participate, with our president Ange Montalvo representing the chapter in panels and leadership discussions. Throughout the weekend we engaged with organizers, union leaders, progressive candidates, communications teams, and movement builders doing the work on the ground across Florida.

There were powerful panels, a leadership retreat, and a recognition dinner, but more importantly there were real conversations about strategy, structure, and how we build lasting progressive infrastructure in this state.

Let’s be clear about the moment we are in. Florida’s political leadership has been shaped and constrained by corporate interests for far too long. exists as a resistance to that capture. We are willing to speak on issues others call too risky because we are not guided by consultants. We are guided by shared values and the lived realities of our communities.

This conference marks the beginning of renewed, coordinated work across chapters.

If you are ready to organize, to build power locally, and to help reshape the Democratic Party from the ground up, now is the time to get involved. The link to join our chapter is in our bio.

First time meeting in person with Matthew Grocholske, president of the Democratic Progressive Caucus of Florida, today at the Capitol in Tallahassee.

I gave him a shirt I earned canvassing for Zohran Mamdani in NYC. That shirt represents something bigger than a campaign. It represents disciplined grassroots organizing, precinct level work, and the belief that everyday people can take on entrenched power and win.

That’s the energy we need to build in Florida.

If you’re a progressive Democrat who believes our party should actually fight for civil rights, universal healthcare, housing, and dignity for all, join the DPCF. If there’s a local chapter near you, plug in. If there isn’t one yet, let’s start it.

This is how we build a strong progressive base inside the Democratic Party. Not by waiting. By organizing.

We showed up to tell the truth and to organize. Not for the optics. Not just to take pictures.

At today’s action, members of the People’s Progressive Caucus of Miami Dade spoke openly about abolishing ICE and holding Democratic leadership accountable. Then we got to work. We talked to people in the crowd and collected 25 petitions for a real pathway to citizenship so we can follow up with concrete next steps.

What we heard was clear. This message is broadly popular with the base. People are tired of being told to be patient. Tired of vote blue no matter who. Tired of watching migrants get scapegoated while leadership protects the status quo.

Yes, some party operatives were upset and told us to focus on Republicans. But we are Democrats. And we believe you wash the inside of the cup first so the outside gets clean too. Accountability starts at home.

The strategy is simple. Organize the base. Show people how to engage the party directly. Attend your local Democratic Executive Committee meetings. Listen, learn, and make your voice heard. That’s how we force change.

If you want to be part of this work, follow the link in our bio to join the caucus or sign the petition. This is about building power, not just posting about it.
