Today, Florida Democratic Party Chair Terrie Rizzo released the following statement condemning dictatorships in places such as Venezuela, Cuba, and Nicaragua, and reiterating Florida Democrats’ support for people fleeing tyrannies:

“Florida Democrats condemn dictators who toppled democracies across the globe and stand in solidarity with the thousands of people who have fled violent dictatorships in Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua. Candidates need to understand our immigrant communities’ shared stories, as well as provide solutions to issues that matter to all Floridians including access to affordable health care and rejecting a Trump economy that works only for the very rich.”
