Said one historian, "It rose as if by magic. Here's the magician.” Before she died at the young age of 49, she was credited with founding the city’s first laundry, bakery, daily, and Episcopal church. Today the statue of the “Mother of Miami” stands in Bayfront Park. — PolitiTweet.org

A tireless businesswoman, after the Great Freeze of 1894, Tuttle convinced railroad owner Henry Flagler to extend train service from Palm Beach to Miami by sending him unfrozen orange blossoms from South Florida. This was the beginning of an economic boom. — PolitiTweet.org

Known as the “Mother of Miami,” Julia Tuttle wasn’t allowed to vote in 1896, but that didn’t stop her from becoming the only female founder of a major American city. While others saw a swampy wasteland, she saw unlimited potential. #WomensHistoryMonth https://t.co/es4dFBC2kT — PolitiTweet.org

We passed government funding designed to put the middle class and working people first, reduce household costs and invest in the safety and opportunity of American families. That should be the goal of good government. — PolitiTweet.org

We have been battling Central Florida’s affordable housing crisis for years. I fought for new programs to combat homelessness in the federal budget, and I am proud that this funding has been passed into law. https://t.co/MRxaXImTKH — PolitiTweet.org

To protect Florida families from rising gas prices, Congress must crack down on corporate price gouging. — PolitiTweet.org

Today I voted to ban discrimination based on Americans’ natural hair. It’s simple: every person deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. #CROWNact https://t.co/sdq2zcw5Ry — PolitiTweet.org

Last week Democrats and Republicans in the House passed two of my bills to help keep our communities safe from terrorism and ensure the highest standards of training for federal law enforcement officers. The Senate must act to pass this legislation. https://t.co/6pMWYn4IEx — PolitiTweet.org

Last week we passed legislation to ban the import of Russian oil. Shutting out Russia is working; it is bringing accountability to Putin for this war. — PolitiTweet.org

We are still in the middle of a global pandemic and some politicians are once again trying to dismantle the Affordable Care Act, which has reduced health care costs for working families. Taking away health care from Floridians is wrong and we will fight it. — PolitiTweet.org

Today her legacy lives on in advanced ranching techniques and in the land around Sarasota, in Meadowsweet Pastures, Myakka River State Park, Osprey Point, Palmer Ranch, The Oaks, and more. #WomensHistoryMonth — PolitiTweet.org
Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings
While here, this “high society” lady found a passion in agriculture. Palmer worked with scientists and farmers, experimenting with year-round growing techniques and ranching techniques that revolutionized the cattle and hog industries. https://t.co/14Hr5v6FJj — PolitiTweet.org
Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings
Later in her life, she moved to Florida and proved to be a brilliant businesswoman. She advocated for railroad expansions, developing much of the Tampa Bay region and at one point owning a third of Sarasota County. She doubled her wealth. — PolitiTweet.org
Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings
At the same time, she was a passionate activist for women and children, access to health care, and fair workplaces. At one point, she used her parlor to organize female factory workers and coordinate a strike. — PolitiTweet.org
Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings
As a Chicago socialite, she lived in a castle one critic called “abominable.” But she was the undisputed center of social life in Chicago and during the 1893 World's Fair helped to build the showcase for women's contributions to business, labor, the arts, industry and science. — PolitiTweet.org
Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings
A glamorous socialite and renowned businesswoman, Bertha Palmer is credited not only with the invention of the chocolate brownie, but also for groundbreaking farming, ranching, and development here in Florida. #WomensHistoryMonth https://t.co/QCbgiglK4f — PolitiTweet.org

One year ago a mass shooter motivated by anti-Asian bigotry killed eight innocent people in Atlanta. Today I ask that you remember the victims of this crime, pray for their families, and work to fight bigotry and gun violence in your community. #StopAsianHate — PolitiTweet.org

Gas prices. Prescription drugs. Grocery bills. It's long past time to crack down on anti-competitive business practices, secure our supply chains, hold international producers accountable, and build an economy based around working families, not those at the top. — PolitiTweet.org
Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings
This morning I again call for additional sanctions to target all of Putin’s political allies, cripple his personal wealth and hold him responsible for this unforgivable war of conquest. My full statement: https://t.co/wKUrQ6jbmm — PolitiTweet.org

President Zelenskyy has exemplified the courage and determination of the Ukrainian people and it was an honor to hear from him this morning. America must always stand for freedom and democracy, which is why last week I voted for military and humanitarian aid for Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org
Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings
The people of Ukraine are our friends and we must help. Last week I voted to pass critical funding for weapons and humanitarian aid for Ukraine. While some in Congress voted no, I am glad to say that this vital support passed and is on its way. — PolitiTweet.org
Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings
Last week extremists in Florida enacted the harshest abortion ban in our state’s history, with no exception for rape and incest. We passed the Women’s Health Protection Act to protect the rights, safety, and health of America's women. The Senate must pass this law. — PolitiTweet.org
