Organizations cite Bousbar's understanding of the urgent issues facing young people and ability to get results in announcing support
Today, Path to Progress, Florida College Democrats, and Florida High School Democrats –three organizations focused on engaging young voters in the democratic process– announced their endorsement of former Biden administration official and emergency preparedness expert Sabrina Bousbar for Congress in Florida’s 13th District. The organizations cited Sabrina’s understanding of the urgent issues facing young people these days and her ability to bring people together to get results in declaring their support.
Path to Progress is a national youth-led organization working to advance positive long-term change for Americans.
"Path to Progress is thrilled to support Sabrina Bousbar because she knows not only what is at stake but also how to get things done for real people," said Path to Progress Executive Director Sam Weinberg. "Her results-oriented approach and experience in the federal executive branch speaks for itself, and I’m confident she will bring the energy and much-needed common sense that’s sorely needed in Congress these days."
Florida College Democrats is the official Democratic Student Caucus of Florida and a statewide federation of more than 20 College Democrats chapters from across the state of Florida.
"Florida College Democrats is committed to supporting youth champions this election cycle and Sabrina Bousbar’s dedication to paving the way for a new generation of leadership is something that resonates with us as a caucus," said Alexis Durman, President of Florida College Democrats. "We are ready to take action alongside her to flip Florida and fight for the rights that Floridians, and young people, deserve!"
Florida High School Democrats is the official high school caucus of the Florida Democratic Party and a statewide organization of over 40 school chapters.
"Florida High School Democrats are so excited to endorse Sabrina Bousbar in FL-CD 13," said Rhea Maniar, President of Florida High School Democrats. "It’s time that we have renewed leadership in Congress, and Sabrina is a proven champion for young people. We’re prepared to roll up our sleeves and get to work to flip this important seat."
"I’m honored to earn endorsements from these organizations that are focused on securing a stronger, safer, healthier future for all Floridians and Americans," Sabrina said. "Our generation is acutely aware of the pressing crises of this moment —from affordability to abortion access to gun violence to the climate crisis— and know we deserve better than more inaction and lip service from Congress. I’m ready to get to work solving problems, protect our rights and freedoms, and ensure everyone has the opportunity to thrive in our communities."
These youth-led and focused engagement organizations join incoming Florida House Democratic Leader Christine Hunschofsky, Latino Victory Fund, Democrats Serve, Voters of Tomorrow, Dream for America, and other trusted leaders and organizations backing Sabrina as the clear choice to defeat Anna Paulina Luna.
A member of the lockdown generation, Sabrina also earned recognition as a Moms Demand Action Gun Sense Candidate. If elected, she will be the nation’s first female Gen Z member of Congress. To learn more about Sabrina, please visit SabrinaForFlorida.com.
