I’d like to thank the Daily Kos community for your endorsement. Campaigns must communicate with voters through email, TV, mail and person-to-person contact.

Now, let’s talk about what this election is about.
Lois is running for Congress so she can continue the good work she started here in West Palm Beach, Florida. She revitalized a local economy and fought for the people who needed it most. Lois entered public service as a Florida state representative, fighting for women, seniors, and working families — and also becoming the first female Democratic leader in the state House. As mayor of West Palm Beach for eight years, she lead the revitalization of the downtown district, recruiting dozens of new small businesses. To accomplish all that she did, Lois had to disappoint a couple friends, but she did it for the good of her city. Now, West Palm Beach is a place people want to live, work, and play.
As a Congressional candidate, Lois has taken a stand for Democratic and progressive principles. She supports the Affordable Care Act and a woman's right to choose, and will protect and strengthen Medicare and Social Security. Lois is also concerned about the Ryan Plan. Lois’s opponent, Adam Hasner, introduced a mandatory ultrasound bill in the Florida House. He has even vowed to defund Planned Parenthood. He calls Paul Ryan his “political hero,” and said that Ryan’s plan doesn’t go far enough.
If elected, Hasner would join the ranks of the Tea Party that has controlled Congress for the last two years. We can’t afford more gridlock and stagnation that is costing this country jobs. For too long, Tea Party radicals like Hasner have clung to ideology and done nothing to help the people who elected them. Lois will bring her determination to get things done to Washington. She is not content to sit idly by while middle class families around the country suffer. She will always be on your side. We hope you’ll always be on hers.
