I received an email from a lovely lady, concerned citizen, mother of two and Florida resident asking me to spread the word about Marco Rubio and Florida’s future!!
Marco Rubio, Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives, and Kathy Parsons need our help!! Read more and take action to stop punishing people who pay high property taxes and help those potential buyers who want to live the American Dream!!! Here’s her letter she wrote to me!
As a Floridian, business owner, mother of two, and concerned citizen — I am standing with Marco Rubio for Florida’s future. Here’s why.
Two years ago, I voiced my concerns about skyrocketing property taxes in our state. Being in the real estate business for 40 years, 25 of which have been in Florida, I know first hand how important it is to keep property taxes low and our economy vibrant. Instead of creating incentives for new homeowners, high property taxes punish people who already own property and dissuade potential buyers from purchasing their own home. This is not the American dream and certainly not the dream I had for my kids and grandchildren.
At the time, Marco Rubio was the Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives. He heard my concerns through an email I sent to him and Governor Crist. Marco responded to me, and asked that I participate in his Townhall meeting to address our rising taxes and to help come up with sensible solutions to solve the problem.
For the first time, I saw something in Marco that I have never seen before. With Marco, it’s about coming up with solutions to the problems that face each and every one of us. It’s not about telling us one thing and then turning around and doing another. Heck, with Marco — it’s not even about him.
Instead, it is about the big ideas and real solutions that will ensure the future of our great state. And he gets those ideas from us.
I participated in that Townhall with Marco. Together we talked about the burden of high property taxes placed on those seeking a home for their family. After the Townhall meeting, Marco didn’t stop the conversation. As the Speaker, he worked diligently to keep property tax reform at the forefront of the legislative agenda.
Today, tomorrow, and every single day from now until Election Day, I will stand with Marco Rubio for Florida’s future. I will do so because I know that Marco will always include us in the discussion as the keys to our future.
Our task now is to spread the word about Marco Rubio and to encourage every Floridian to stand with him and us for Florida’s future.
Use our Forward-to-a-Friend tool to invite ten people from your network to stand with us.
Marco can do it but he can’t do it alone. He needs people like you and me to talk to our friends, neighbors and every one we know to support him. I have included a way for you to help below:

Today I’m asking you to spread the word about Marco so that others will stand with us for the future of Florida. I thank you for your help!
Sincerely,
Kathy Parsons
