Florida politicians weigh in on Brett Kavanaugh

Florida's Republican Representatives have made a decision and put it in writing -- before the facts are presented.  "All but two of the 75 Republicans in the Florida House have signed a letter calling for Judge Kavanaugh's  confirmation," including Rep. Jeanette Núñez,  candidate for Lieutenant Governor, and Rep. Matt Caldwell, candidate for Agriculture Commissioner.


Our US Senators and candidate are more politic. Bill Nelson, Marco Rubio, and Rick Scott have indicated that no decision should be made until after a hearing.  And, for Senator Nelson, after an expanded FBI background check. 

David Shapiro for US House District 16 endorsed by AFL-CIO
