FL NOW PAC Announces Endorsement of Candidates for Federal Office

For Immediate Release: August 3, 2026

President Julie Kent, Florida National Organization for Women  (FL NOW) PAC president@flnow.org

Orlando, FL – FL NOW PAC is pleased to announce the endorsement by the NOW PAC of the candidates shown below.  In making this endorsement, the NOW PAC considered each candidate’s positions on the issues that NOW considers important: women’s rights, women’s equality, and LGBTQIA+ rights.  These candidates were recommended to the NOW PAC after interviews with the FL NOW PAC.  These candidates answered a comprehensive questionnaire of their positions, showing that they strongly support the six issue pillars of NOW: freedom from violence against women, racial justice, reproductive healthcare, economic justice, and enforcing constitutional equality. These are the candidates that best support our vision for a better FL and America.

“FL NOW PAC believes these candidates are ready to tackle critical issues affecting our communities especially affordability in housing, cost of living, insurance, Medicaid and SNAP, providing critical support to millions of Floridians,” said Julie Kent, President of FL NOW PAC.

This roster of candidates will fight the rise of fascism, ethics transgressions, and violations of the U.S. and Florida Constitutions. The momentum and support are there to strengthen democratic ideals in Florida.  FL NOW PAC looks to these leaders to WIN.
