While attending the University of Central Florida, I began working in local and state politics — first as an intern in the Florida Legislature, where I saw how decisions made in Tallahassee ripple back into people’s lives at home. I went on to work on campaigns across Central Florida and later managed a Florida House race. Those experiences taught me how to organize, how to listen, and how to build coalitions rooted in trust and shared purpose. Most importantly, they showed me that real progress starts with meeting people where they are and earning their confidence.

We’re going to run a disciplined campaign. And we’re going to fight for a district where working families can actually get ahead.Let’s get to work.— Antione

I was raised by a single mom who worked full-time and still had to rely on food stamps to make ends meet. We lived with my grandparents in Jacksonville because housing was too expensive, and I learned early on that you take care of your people because no one else is coming to do it for you.Later, when my mom met my stepdad, Ocala became home too — and the place I spent so much of my childhood growing up.I’ll never forget the day George Zimmerman walked free after killing Trayvon Martin, and how powerless it made me and so many others feel.That moment changed how I saw Florida, justice, and whose lives our system is built to protect.That’s what pushed me to get involved. It’s why I learned how power works. And it’s why I’ve spent my career taking on corruption, fighting for accountability, and standing up for working people.

Dozens of local organizations and leaders are standing together!

<h2>Bipartisan Criminal Justice Reform</h2>As a Legislative Aide, I worked directly with Democratic and Republican leadership, law enforcement, and community advocates to help pass HB 7051, Florida’s bipartisan police reform bill.The bill passed the House and Senate with zero “no” votes before heading to the Governor’s desk.I am proud to have directly worked on three major provisions that were originally filed as standalone bills under Rep. Dote Joseph: mandatory excessive force reporting, a duty to intervene, and a duty to render medical aid.Being progressive doesn't mean being performative. It means knowing how to organize, negotiate, and deliver real change — even in a Republican supermajority.That is the kind of leadership I will bring to Tallahassee.

Issues Post

After my time in the Legislature, I worked as a digital strategist helping progressive candidates and causes raise the resources they needed to win. Most recently, I’ve served as a senior leader at Common Cause, a national nonprofit focused on protecting voting rights, fighting corruption, and reducing the influence of big money in politics.Working nationwide on democracy reform has shown me that we don’t have to wait on Washington to act. State leaders can limit federal harm and deliver real solutions — and I’m ready to bring that approach home to Florida. This work matters to me because I believe democracy works best when it’s accountable, transparent, and accessible to everyone — not just those with wealth or power.

I believe most people in this district want the same basic things: a good-paying job, quality healthcare, strong public schools, clean water, and a home they can actually afford.But instead of delivering that, too many politicians keep siding with the corporations and special interests driving up costs while working families are left to pick up the tab.Rent is too high. Property insurance is too high. Healthcare is too expensive. Wages have not kept up. And too many people are wondering if they can afford a future in the place they call home.That’s why I’m refusing corporate PAC and lobbyist money. Because I don’t believe you can fix a broken system if you’re funded by the same people who broke it.No matter your party, people know something is broken. Tallahassee works too well for insurance companies, utility monopolies, corporate landlords, developers, lobbyists, and political insiders, and too poorly for everyone else.I’m not running to protect that system. I’m running to change it.If we’re going to move Florida forward, it won’t be by playing it safe or promising the bare minimum. It will be by giving people something real to believe in.That means affordable housing.Property insurance relief.Universal healthcare.A living wage.Paid family leave.Strong public schools.Clean water and protected farmland.Better transit, safer roads, and infrastructure that keeps up with growth.And a government that works for people, not corporations.I believe all of this is possible. But only if we are willing to fight for it and build real grassroots power.I’m running because working people deserve more than excuses.I’m running because this seat should belong to the people of this district, not corporations, lobbyists, or political insiders.I’m running because I’m ready to fight.Are you?

THE PLATFORM

IconCheckSquare1

Rent is too high. Insurance is too high. Groceries, utilities, childcare, and healthcare keep going up while wages have not kept pace.I’ll fight to lower everyday costs, raise wages, expand affordable housing, hold insurance companies accountable, and stop corporations from making life harder for working families.

Lower Costs

Healthcare is a human right. Nobody should have to skip medicine, stay in a bad job, beg an insurance company, or go broke just to get care.I’ll fight for universal healthcare and use every tool we have now to expand Medicaid, open the state health plan, expand KidCare, lower premiums, fund mobile clinics, and address the Black maternal health crisis.

Universal Healthcare

Rent is too high. Buying a home feels out of reach. Big investors are buying up houses, and property insurance is making it harder for people to stay in the homes they already have.I’ll fight to build more affordable housing, protect renters and homeowners, limit corporate ownership of homes, protect housing trust funds, and hold insurance companies accountable.

Housing and Insurance Relief

Our land and water are not for sale. We need clean water, protected springs, preserved farmland, safer streets, better transit, and growth that does not leave local people behind.I’ll fight to protect Marion County’s Farmland Preservation Area, defend our aquifer and springs, stop reckless sprawl, support high-speed rail and better buses, and put a moratorium on AI data centers until Florida has real protections for water, workers, privacy, and local communities.

Florida families are doing everything right and still falling behind.&nbsp;Working full-time but barely making rent. Putting off having kids because buying a home feels impossible.And instead of working to make our lives easier, our leaders in Tallahassee are more concerned with culture wars and the needs of the greedy corporations buying them off.We need more progressives in office fighting to expose corruption, raise wages, and give power back to working class people.I'm an organizer. I've helped pass criminal justice reform. And I've worked to expand voting rights and hold our leaders accountable nationwide.I'm ready to take on special interests and fight for hardworking families like yours on day one.Florida deserves a future that actually feels worth fighting for. Together we can achieve it.

Help Antione

Are you tired of puppet politicians owned by corporate PACs?

I later served as a Legislative Assistant in the Florida House, where I saw firsthand how challenging it can be to turn good ideas into real policy — and how important persistence, preparation, and collaboration are to getting results. In the wake of the George Floyd protests, I worked on the criminal justice reform package passed in 2021, pushing for accountability and fairness in a system that too often fails our communities. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I also helped constituents navigate Florida’s broken unemployment system, working directly with families who were struggling to get the help they deserved. Watching that system fail people in real time reinforced a simple truth: when government doesn’t work, everyday people pay the price.

HD-21 Community Priorities Survey

For a long time now, working families have been asked to carry more and more — higher rent, higher insurance, higher healthcare costs — while the people at the top keep taking more for themselves. If you work hard, play by the rules, and still feel like you’re falling behind, you’re not imagining it. That’s the system doing exactly what it was designed to do. And the people in power know it.

Public schools gave me opportunities my family couldn’t afford on our own. And for many kids, school is where they get stability, support, and sometimes even their only guaranteed meal of the day.But Florida politicians have turned schools into political battlegrounds instead of focusing on what students and teachers actually need.We’ve seen classroom censorship laws, book bans, teacher shortages, and underfunded schools — all while politicians push privatization schemes that pull resources away from neighborhood public schools.Our students deserve better.I’ll fight to:<ul><li>Raise teacher pay and retain educators</li><li>Fully fund public schools</li><li>Provide universal free breakfast and lunch for students</li><li>Expand career and technical education opportunities</li><li>Keep politics out of classrooms and trust educators </li></ul>

Every child deserves a fair shot, no matter their ZIP code.I’ll fight to raise teacher pay, protect public education from political interference, expand hands-on learning opportunities, and make free breakfast and lunch available to every student in Florida public schools.

Strong Public Schools

Florida’s immigrant communities are being targeted for political gain.Laws like SB 1718 and other anti-immigrant legislation have made families afraid to drive, seek medical care, or report crimes. Workers essential to Florida’s economy are being treated like criminals instead of neighbors.This doesn’t make communities safer. It makes them more vulnerable.I support repealing anti-immigrant laws and passing comprehensive reforms like the Economic Prosperity and Immigration Act, which would:<ul><li>Expand access to state-issued ID so people can drive legally and carry insurance, making roads safer</li><li>End state mandates forcing private employers into E-Verify systems that disrupt local economies</li><li>Create an Office for New Americans to support workforce integration</li><li>Prevent local law enforcement from being forced to act as ICE agents</li><li>Restore due process protections</li><li>Prohibit discrimination based on immigration status</li><li>Ban masked immigration enforcement except when necessary for safety</li></ul>

Florida has been plagued by short-sighted, politically-motivated anti-immigrant policies that demonize immigrant communities, destabilize businesses, separate families, and spread fear. We need an approach that values the dignity and economic contribution of immigrants—not just as workers, but as integral members of the larger Florida familyI'll fight to block state cooperation with mass deportation efforts, restore in-state tuition for Dreamers and TPS holders, and repeal anti-immigrant laws like SB1718 and the TRUMP Act.

Protect Immigrant Families &amp; Our Community

Bad growth planning hurts everyone.When development is approved without infrastructure, communities deal with gridlock, flooding, rising housing costs, and declining quality of life.We also need real transportation options. Many families can’t afford long commutes or multiple cars, and Florida’s limited public transit options make that harder.I support:<ul><li>Smart growth planning that protects neighborhoods and natural areas</li><li>Investments in public transportation and commuter options</li><li>Infrastructure upgrades to reduce traffic and flooding</li><li>Expansion of broadband and stormwater improvements </li></ul>

I believe in smart growth that protects our environment and ensures equitable, sustainable growth for all, not just prioritizing development interests.I’ll fight for smart planning, expanded public transit options and broadband access, infrastructure upgrades, and protection of natural lands so communities can grow without endless traffic and sprawl.

Reduce Traffic &amp; Build Smart

Property insurance is one of the biggest reasons Florida families are getting priced out of their homes.Premiums keep rising. Coverage keeps shrinking. Companies leave the state. And homeowners are left paying more every year just to keep their homes insured.Meanwhile, insurance companies and lobbyists continue to have outsized influence in Tallahassee, while families get stuck with the bill.This crisis isn’t just about storms — it’s about regulation failures, corporate giveaways, and political protection for insurers.When families can’t afford insurance, they can’t afford their homes. And when they can’t afford utilities either, it becomes a full affordability crisis.I’ll fight to:<ul><li>Hold insurance companies accountable for unjustified rate hikes</li><li>Increase transparency in insurer finances</li><li>Strengthen consumer protections</li><li>Stabilize markets without shifting costs onto homeowners</li></ul>

Florida’s property insurance crisis is crushing homeowners and renters.I’ll fight to hold insurance companies accountable, stop rate hikes that protect corporate profits, and stabilize the market so families can actually afford to live in their homes.

Write a short blurb about an issue your campaign is highlighting. Try to keep the text a similar size between the various issue blurbs.

MAGA extremism is destroying our democracy and stripping away our freedoms. Meanwhile, corporate donors have more influence than working class families.I'll fight to call out Tallahassee corruption, pass stronger ethics laws, get big money out of politics, pass automatic voter registration, expand voting access, advance legislation to end political gerrymandering, champion national popular vote, and make sure our elected officials are held accountable.

Fight Corruption &amp; Defend Democracy

Politicians in Tallahassee have inserted themselves into deeply personal medical decisions — and women are paying the price.Florida’s six-week abortion ban means many women don’t even know they’re pregnant before access is cut off. Doctors face legal risks. Clinics close. Women are forced to travel or carry pregnancies against their will.And we already know what happens when abortion access disappears: women die, families suffer, and healthcare decisions get made by politicians instead of doctors.I believe reproductive healthcare decisions belong to patients and their providers — not the government.I will fight to:<ul><li>Restore abortion access in Florida</li><li>Protect reproductive healthcare providers</li><li>Ensure contraception access</li><li>Stop politicians from criminalizing medical care</li></ul>

Politicians should not be making personal healthcare decisions for families.I’ll fight to restore reproductive freedom, expand maternal healthcare access, work to address the Black maternal mortality crisis, and make sure women and families can get the care they need without government interference.

Reproductive Freedom &amp; Maternal Health

Everything costs more right now — rent, groceries, insurance, utilities — while wages haven’t kept pace.Families are working harder than ever and still falling behind. That’s not because people aren’t trying hard enough. It’s because the system is tilted toward corporations and wealthy insiders instead of working families.I’ll fight to:<ul><li>Expand affordable housing</li><li>Address Florida’s property insurance crisis</li><li>Enact a state Earned Income Tax Credit to put money back in your pockets</li><li>Eliminate or reduce toll burdens</li><li>Enact a living wage to support working families</li><li>Pass paid leave protections for pregnant workers</li><li>Expand Florida's Pre-K program to lower childcare costs </li></ul>

Families across our community are being crushed by rising rent, insurance, healthcare, and utility costs while wages struggle to keep up.I’ll fight to lower everyday costs by raising wages, eliminating or reducing toll burdens, passing paid leave for pregnant workers, expanding Florida's Pre-K program, and putting money back in working families’ pockets through a state Earned Income Tax Credit.

We support the candidate!
