MIAMI (WSVN) – Democratic Senate candidate Angie Nixon took aim at rising affordability concerns during her campaign\u2019s South Florida stop.<\/p>\n

The progressive candidate stopped by Miami\u2019s Gastro Bar to meet with supporters, Thursday.<\/p>\n

While speaking with supporters, Nixon said one of the reasons she decided to run for one of Florida\u2019s Senate seats is because the state has become increasingly unaffordable for so many residents.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to make sure that these politicians in Washington, D.C. are no longer beholden to these big corporations and these billionaires and these special interest groups. They need to be beholden to the people. People are working harder than ever and they are still struggling to stay afloat. I know what it\u2019s like to struggle and I don\u2019t want people to have to do that anymore,\u201d said Nixon.<\/p>\n

In November\u2019s general election, Nixon faces off against incumbent Republican Sen. Ashley Moody, who was appointed by Gov. Ron DeSantis<\/a> to serve the remainder of Marco Rubio\u2019s term after he became U.S. Secretary of State last year.<\/p>\n
