Statement from the Florida Democratic Party on Congresswoman Kathy Castor’s Proven Leadership 

Tallahassee, FL – The Florida Democratic Party today issued a statement in response to Hillsborough County Commissioner Mark Sharpe’s announcement he will challenge Democratic Congresswoman Kathy Castor (FL-11).

Statement from Scott Arceneaux, Executive Director of the Florida Democratic Party:

“Congresswoman Kathy Castor has a strong record of fighting on behalf of the families of the Tampa Bay area, always putting the interests of the people of Florida ahead of the special interests in Washington,” said Florida Democratic Party Executive Director Scott Arceneaux. “She is a principled leader working hard to create jobs, improve schools, and protect consumers and the environment.  Elected to Congress in the last cycle with overwhelming support, she is a proven fighter on behalf of the people in her district, and we are confident that her constituents will send her back to Congress next fall.”
