End Citizens United Endorses Angie Nixon for U.S. Senate in Florida

End Citizens United (ECU), a leading national anti-corruption organization, today endorsed State Representative Angie Nixon in Florida's U.S. Senate race. As part of ECU's Unrig Washington program, Nixon rejects corporate PAC money, supports a ban on congressional stock trading, and commits to helping get dark money out of elections.

“Floridians are demanding a senator who fights for them, not for corporate donors and special interests," said End Citizens United President Tiffany Muller. "Angie Nixon has made clear she won't play by Washington's pay-to-play rules. By rejecting corporate PAC money, she's showing voters that her allegiance is to the people of Florida, not to the highest bidder. We’re proud to be supporting Angie and look forward to helping her win in November."

"Floridians are getting squeezed by rising costs while Washington caters to corporate donors instead of working families," said Representative Angie Nixon. "I've seen firsthand how corruption in our government keeps real solutions out of reach. That's why I'm rejecting corporate PAC money and fighting to get dark money out of our elections, because the people of Florida deserve a senator who answers to them, not to special interests. I'm proud to have the endorsement of End Citizens United in this fight."

Angie Nixon is a State Representative, union organizer, and proven fighter for Florida’s working families. In the State House, she's led efforts to expand childcare access, stop corporate price gouging, and fight back against unfair voting maps. Nixon is part of Unrig Washington, joining more than 290 Democratic candidates committed to rejecting corporate PAC money, supporting a ban on congressional stock trading, and cracking down on dark money in politics.
