Florida Sen. Randolph Bracy announced his candidacy should U.S. Rep. Val Demings run for the U.S. Senate, for the open 10th congressional district.

Bracy was elected to the Florida Senate in 2016 and reelected in 2020. He previously served two terms in the Florida House of Representatives.

"The real fight for justice and equity is in Washington, D.C., where historic, consequential debates are happening right now,” Bracy said. "Our country needs urgent action on real police reform, on voting rights, on equity funding for jobs, health care, education and housing for long-neglected communities. That is the fight I took on in Tallahassee, and I'm ready to lead on these issues right now in Congress.”
