What is the difference between Democratic and Progressive
FAQ:
The Democratic Party and the Progressive Democrat movement share many core values, such as a commitment to social justice, economic equity, and environmental sustainability. However, they differ in their approach and emphasis on certain issues.
The Democratic Party often embraces a broader, more centrist platform designed to appeal to a wide range of voters, including moderates and independents.
In contrast, Progressive Democrats advocate for bold, transformative policies that push the boundaries of traditional political norms. This includes championing Medicare for All, the Green New Deal, and robust wealth redistribution efforts.
While both aim to address systemic inequalities, Progressive Democrats often criticize the Democratic Party for being too cautious or aligned with corporate interests, calling for a more radical reimagining of the political and economic system.

This campaign is not about me, and it's certainly not about Matt Gaetz. It’s about us. It’s about building a future where every family has the opportunity to succeed, where every voice is heard, and where your representative is someone who stands with you, fights for you, and never abandons their post.”
Valimont highlighted several key issues her campaign will prioritize, including expanding access to affordable healthcare, lowering prescription drug costs, and addressing the district’s opioid crisis.
“Our district has roughly double the amount of opioid deaths and addiction than any other district in Florida,” Valimont said. “We need federal resources here to provide treatment, education, and prevention programs to save lives and support struggling families.”
