A few moments ago, I called School Board member Susan Valdes to congratulate her victory to the Florida House of Representatives. I sincerely wish her good luck in her future endeavor. As her future constituent, I will be rooting for her success.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank my loving wife, Amanda, for her patience during this campaign and for all the sacrifices she’s made throughout the past year. I would also like to thank all of my friends; family, particularly my Mom and Grandma; my employer, Westfall Roofing; my volunteers, particularly Beatriz Zafra and Devin Diaz; my consultant, Tom Alte, and everyone at Blue Ticket; all of the teachers and supporters who donated, volunteered, or offered encouragement and truly believed in our campaign.
To quote Senator John McCain “We fought as hard as we could, although we fell short, the failure is mine not yours.” From the bottom of my heart, thank you!

Susan Valdes made one promise to voters this year. She said she wouldn’t accept support from for-profit education corporations and Trump Republicans. Like so many other times in the past, she lied.

These Republican billionaires have been destroying public education all over America. Now they’re colluding with Susan Valdes to trick Democrats. I join teachers, working families, and Democrats all over Hillsborough in thanking Janet Cruz for pulling her endorsement and condemning Susan’s latest lies.

House Minority Leader Janet Cruz announced Monday that she was yanking her endorsement of School Board member Susan Valdes. Valdes …

“There is only one candidate in this race that speaks to the heart and soul of this district and that is Mike Alvarez," said Mayor Bob Buckhorn. "He knows the community, has served his country as member of the United States Marine Corps, and is prepared to be our Representative in Tallahassee. He will be a credible and competent voice for West Tampa and Town and Country.”

Susan Valdes promised voters that she wouldn't accept support from for profit education corporations and Trump Republicans. She lied.

We deserve a honest representative. If Susan can't keep the only pledge she made to voters, how can we trust anything she says?

If you are a voter who lives in House District 62 and haven’t voted yet, you need to vote for Mike Alvarez. He is the clear choice who brings a unique perspective as a former U.S. Marine and …

Proud to have the endorsement of Congresswoman Kathy Castor as we continue sharing my values with District 62. Thank you!
