Guys like this have no place in a democracy.

Harris, the fate of the Senate could rest in Florida's hands.

Democrats likely need to flip at least one Republican-held seat to maintain our razor-thin Senate majority – and the most vulnerable Republican seat on the map is freshman Sen. Rick Scott in Florida.

Scott is a mega-millionaire extremist who bought his way to political power, and has an anti-choice, anti-democracy voting record that's deeply unpopular with Florida voters. That's why EMILYs List has endorsed Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, the perfect Democratic pro-choice challenger to flip this seat and send Rick Scott packing.

More on how we can beat Rick Scott in a moment, but first: will you donate now to help EMILYs List women like Debbie Mucarsel-Powell defeat anti-choice extremists in just TWO weeks?

Here's everything you need to know about former Florida governor and current Sen. Rick Scott:

  • He's a proud Trump ally and an anti-democracy extremist. In his first term as senator, Scott has voted with Trump nearly 85% of the time — a score that includes his vote to overturn the 2020 electoral results.

  • He has never won broad support from Florida voters. Scott self-funded each of his campaigns — something a candidate doesn't have to do if their constituents actually support them. Even after spending $85M of his own money on his first run, Scott only narrowly won his races for Florida governor by about 1% of the vote each time. In his 2018 run for Senate, when he spent $63M of his own money, the margin was even smaller — only 0.2% of the vote!

  • He wouldn't hesitate to sign a national abortion ban. Scott is on the record saying that if he were still governor of Florida, he would have proudly signed a six-week abortion ban into law.

Rick Scott poses a direct threat to our democracy and our fundamental rights — but we can replace him this November. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell is as pro-choice, pro-democracy, and pro-Florida as they come, and the latest polls show her neck-and-neck with Scott.
