ANNA’S OPPORTUNITY AGENDA

ECONOMY

No Floridian should live in poverty. Anna will continue to fight for fair wages and economic upward mobility, while supporting our community’s small businesses and entrepreneurs.

EDUCATION

Anna is a graduate of Orange County Public Schools and UCF. She’s fighting in Tallahassee to make sure tax dollars go to public schools and not for-profit charter schools, and she’s advocating  to improve all teacher pay.

HEALTH CARE

Anna lost her mother to cancer when she was thirteen.  Her family struggled to pay for healthcare, and Anna won’t stop fighting for quality, affordable health insurance, including coverage for pre-existing conditions and mental health.

ENVIRONMENT

Anna believes that Florida’s future economy relies on protecting and preserving our natural resources, from springs to beaches. She’s sponsored legislation for Florida to be a global leader in renewable energy, especially solar. READ ALL OF ANNA’S PLATFORM HERE ENDORSED BY ORLANDO MAYOR BUDDY DYER _FORMER STATE SENATOR, 1992-2002_ “There’s no doubt that Anna truly represents the Democratic Party’s future. She is a rising star in Florida politics and in our community. She works hard each day to deliver results and gets things done for the people of Florida. I have full confidence that we will be in good hands with Anna Eskamani representing us in the Florida Legislature. It is my honor to endorse Anna Eskamani for Florida House District 47.”
