Summary

Mike Davey, who’s an attorney and the former Mayor of Key Biscayne, sits down with Rick to discuss why he’s running for congress in Florida’s 27th District. A father and husband to strong Latinas and a local leader who many turn to, Mike is taking on Trump’s immigration warfare, Florida’s housing shortage and property insurance issues, and incumbent MAGA María Salazar who has sold out her community at every turn. This is a winnable district, and Mike, a former republic running as a democrat, is the type of leader that can swing these voters away from Trump and MAGA María. ・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・ Follow Mike Davey @mikedaveyforcongress on social media and keep up with his campaign at MikeDaveyforFlorida.com.
