Progressive PAC Priorities USA is investing $100 million in key states for the 2020 elections and Florida is on its list. 

Josh Schwerin, spokesman for Priorities USA says Florida is vital to securing enough electoral votes for a Democratic win.

“In Florida in 2020 our goal is to help democrats defeat Donald trump in the state and then as part of the larger effort to get to 270 votes and make sure there is a democrat in the White House starting in 2021,” he said.

The PAC used the funding to launch Priorities Florida. The program will share stories from families who say they were negatively impacted by President Donald Trump’s policies.
