    I’m proud to announce my candidacy for the Florida Senate, District 30 — because families in this community deserve a fighter who knows how to get things done. I’ve spent my life fighting for children, families, survivors, and communities too often overlooked or ignored — and

    Yesterday, Ron DeSantis announced well deserved $1,000 bonus checks for Florida's first responders. What he forgot to mention was that the money used came from President Biden's American Rescue Plan. Thank you, President Biden!

    Today, President Biden included additional Florida counties as those considered major disaster areas after speaking with the Governor. Meanwhile, every single Florida Republican in Congress refused to vote for Hurricane Ian relief funds. (No, sadly, you didn’t read that wrong.)

    Women who miscarry in the State of Florida are being sent home to develop sepsis before they can receive needed abortion care. And with the new abortion ban, it will only get worse. This is not freedom.

    As of tonight, Republicans in Arizona have sentenced doctors, nurses, & medical workers to be thrown in jail for providing abortion care — even when a woman or girl is pregnant bc of rape, incest, or sexual assault. Rapists should be thrown in jail, not women or their doctors!

    My name is Lauren Book, and I am the leader of the Florida Senate Democratic caucus. During the past four years, I fought Ron DeSantis and his draconian policies, and when re-elected, I will work to undo all of the damage he has caused.

    Ron DeSantis is now asserting that the Mar A Lago raid was a political hit job. He's wrong. No one, not even a former President is above the law, and as for DeSantis, trust me, as Florida's Senate Democrat Leader, I will work to ensure we hold DeSantis accountable at the polls.

    With the stroke of a pen, Governor DeSantis has forced the women of Florida back 50 years by robbing them of the reproductive rights established by our nation’s highest court in Roe vs. Wade.

    Florida Republicans are gearing up to pass a complete abortion ban in our state. Trust me, as Florida's Senate Democratic leader, I will work day and night to stop any effort to restrict reproductive freedoms in our state.

    Ron DeSantis’ puzzling decision to spend money from our state budget to send migrants to Martha’s Vineyard is lacking in compassion and it may even violate the law. As Florida’s Senate Democratic Leader, I am going to work to work to find answers.

    Authoritarian Governor Ron DeSantis just suspended a twice-elected Democratic State Attorney because he would not enforce Florida's 15-week abortion ban. DeSantis continues to put his political career ahead of the beliefs of Floridians. Voters will hold him accountable.

    Shout out to the members of the @FLHouseDems who are still on the House floor tonight -right now - fighting for women’s rights & defending reproductive freedom. HB 5 abortion ban = an assault on women’s autonomy, an attempt to control our bodies & our lives. The fight continues!
