While the Campaign to Elect Jason Weakley to the Florida House of Representatives officially began in late June, the SunSentinel has now offered blogs to all candidates – so here we are!
Over the next 14 weeks I plan to share my ideas with you, and hear yours as well. Some of the main topics I will be focusing on are creating jobs in Florida to rebuild the economy, as well as taming out of control spending. There are deep problems in our society and none of them are helped by a bad economy and a nation divided over how to solve its problems. As someone who has lost his job in this economy, I have firsthand experience of the frustrations and worries this economy brought us.
I am also passionately concerned about the state of corruption in government. Its downright obscene! I am also deeply concerned about the state of education. We cannot keep the American experiment alive, nor can we compete in the global marketplace if Florida doesn’t have a world-class K-12 educational system. Florida is one of four states that are home to larger populations of young people. As one of those students who attended public middle and high school in Broward County I can tell you, we must do better!
My campaign will only succeed however with your enthusiastic support. It is not about me, it is about you. If We the People are going to change the political status quo, if you want more long-term job creation, if you want Florida (and America) to get better, then I need your help! Subscribe to the email list, donate to the campaign, and join me online through various social media sites.
I would love to hear from you if you have ideas and plans for improving Florida. I am willing to work with whomever has the elbow grease to make it happen.
