Abortion and reproductive policy

In the Florida House, I was the only Democrat to support a 24-hour abortion waiting period, driven by my personal values, despite criticism from my own party.

Economy, jobs and wages

From opposing the expansion of private school funding in favor of strengthening public education to co-sponsoring legislation that protected pregnant employees from discrimination, my work reflected my unwavering principles.

Education

My legislative record speaks for itself. I stood firmly against budget cuts in education, helped secure critical funding for underserved communities, and worked to reform the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) system—advocating for less pressure and more meaningful evaluation in schools.

Traffic Camera Regulations: Campbell has historically opposed red-light traffic surveillance cameras. Her campaign materials highlight her previous legislative work pushing to remove traffic enforcement cameras, which she characterizes as an unfair financial burden on working-class drivers.

Taxes and government spending

When the state tightened its budget, she fought to keep the cuts out of our classrooms.
