I’m Jennifer Jenkins—mom, educator, and fighter. I’ve faced MAGA threats, won in a deep-red county, and delivered groceries to feed my own family. Our Senators don’t know sh*t about the affordability crisis. I do, and I’m running for U.S. Senate in Florida to fix it. Join us.

My dad worked weekends at Pizza Hut to afford the care my mom needed to stay alive. That’s what “making it” looks like in America’s broken health care system. You shouldn't have to work two jobs to afford your medication or doctor appointments. But if the GOP gets their way, a

New Jersey spends nearly $20,000 per student, maintains a 12:1 student teacher ratio, and ranks sixth in teacher pay. Florida spends about $9,000 per student, pretends its classrooms are small after voters demanded a class-size amendment, and ranks dead last 50th in teacher pay.
30 yrs ago, FL was not too different than NJ is now. Then everything changed. @FloridaGOP focused on: ☀️Education ☀️Law and order ☀️Econ. prosperity ☀️Common sense And WE WON. We never looked back and we’re the best state in America. It has been done and it can be done again.

Ashley Moody just signed on to a bill to make concealed carry legal across state lines. That means someone from TX could carry hidden firearms in Florida with no questions asked. As a mom and fmr. school board member who’s faced threats firsthand, this is a slap in the face

Much of the proposed measure would treat concealed carry permits similar to a drivers' license.

🚨 ATTN. New Jersey: We can do SO much better than Mikie Sherrill. She voted against the child tax credit… She voted for tax hikes… She voted to give your money to illegals… Reject her on Nov. 4th.

Trump's government shutdown is now on its 20th day and Florida's small businesses and housing market are starting to feel the pain. Republicans are willing to put the economy at risk to take away our healthcare.

I spent #NoKingsDay with Floridians from all over St. Pete to Tampa who know exactly what’s at stake. We don’t bow to bullies. We don’t answer to book banners. And we sure as hell don’t need another politician pretending to be a king. Florida belongs to the people not the people

You’re complaining about funding peaceful protests while today you stood with @Moms4Liberty a group bankrolled by national extremists, responsible for book bans, teacher shortages, attacks on students, who call to abolish the Department of Education & gut Special Education
Oh so you mean the guy supporting all the rogue prosecutors and radical groups that have blown up stability in cities and states across our nation is now supporting the shutdown of our government? That tracks.

I beat the co-founder of Moms for Liberty in a school board race, in a county that Donald Trump won by double digits. And I did it because I’m not afraid of calling out their BS right to their face. Together, we can do it again, because Florida deserves better than hate dressed

Moms for Liberty is a right-wing extremist group that attacks teachers, censors classrooms, and targets LGBTQ students under the guise of ‘family values.’
