“I believe a stronger voice in Tallahassee is needed to address the suppressing issues we face. District 113 voters are tired of career politicians. They're ready for balance and honesty.”
Jackie’s Platform
Property Insurance
Republicans have been in control of Florida policies for the past 30 years; on THEIR watch, homeowner’s insurance premiums skyrocketed. Florida’s homeowner’s insurance is 4X the national average. Florida Republicans passed legislation that benefited the insurance companies while making it harder for homeowners to sue when their claims are denied.
Reproductive Freedom
Government has no place standing between women and their doctors. Project 2025 supporters are trying to ban access to IVF and birth control. I support limiting government interference with patient’s medical care and giving people the freedom to make their own healthcare decisions with their doctors.
Clean Water
We must ensure quality of life for future generations and enshrine the right to clean water in the Florida constitution. We must protect our beaches and water to be safe for swimming and recreation. We must protect marginalized communities from environmental hazards and advocate for the protection of Biscayne Bay.
Workers
Workers are the backbone of our economy and society. Out-of-touch anti-union Florida Republicans voted to reduce workers’s heat protections.
Minimum Wage
Florida Republicans voted to ban localities from raising their minimum wage above the State. For all the talk about smaller government, these Republicans don’t actually practice what they preach. I believe in strong home rule and localities being able to raise the minimum wage.
Democracy
Florida Republicans made it harder to vote in elections and protest peacefully. They fear a government of the people, by the people, for the people. Republicans want a government of the corporations, by the lobbyists, for the CEOs! Enabling dictatorships and eroding democracy is not conservative, it is treasonous!
Gun Safety
I am opposed to gun lobby-backed state legislators who push laws that put students and everyday people at risk.
We must implement common-sense gun laws, including universal background checks, banning assault weapons, and take measures to prevent gun violence.

Education
Education is the cornerstone of a thriving economy. By prioritizing high-quality education for all, we equip our future workforce with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in a competitive, evolving job market. Investing in our schools and teachers ensures that we can drive innovation, attract businesses, and create sustainable economic growth. A strong education system fosters critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving—essential qualities for building a prosperous and resilient economy. When we support education, we are investing in the long-term success and economic stability of our community and state.
Human Rights
I support the rights of the LGBTQ+ community and believe in fostering an inclusive and respectful society. I stand against policies that undermine these values, including the 'Don't Say Gay' bill. I oppose any government actions that intrude upon or criminalize the most vulnerable members of our community, including the elderly, the homeless, and those facing mental health challenges. I also support the mission of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and advocate for a secure and democratic state of Israel, while promoting a strong, constructive U.S.-Israel relationship. My advocacy extends to supporting vulnerable and minority communities—Jewish, Muslim, and Christian—such as Ethiopian, Charedi, Bedouin, Druze, LGBTQ+, and African asylum seekers. Support for Ukraine involves providing military, economic, and humanitarian aid to help the country defend its sovereignty and recover from the impacts of the ongoing conflict with Russia.
