Former Florida Representative Jennifer Webb represented parts of south Pinellas in the state legislature.

On WMNF’s Tuesday Café we found out about her new group called the Sunshine State Unity Network which aims to “reduce violence, bolster the republic and restore faith in our democratic institutions in Florida.”

The group is cross-partisan, including Republicans Kurt Kelly from Ocala and Miami community leader Lisa Lorenzo.

Their three principles are:

  • Committing to truth in our politics
  • Engaging peacefully with our fellow Americans
  • Supporting our electoral democracy

It has the backing of the Carter Center.
