Priority Issues:
As District 113 State Representative for Miami Beach and downtown Miami/Little Havana, Jonathan Parker promises to:
Reduce Traffic
Make Florida Safe Again
Care for Seniors' Needs
More Choices for Kids' Education
Create Jobs by Cutting Taxes & Regulations
Make Healthcare Work Again
Rout Out Corruption & Waste
Smaller Government -- Less Intrusion -- Less Bureaucracy and Red Tape
Represent Your Concerns effectively.
Encourage Local Business because high rents and oppressive regulations close businesses.
Be Responsive by returning constituent phone calls, emails, and letters promptly and meeting with you because a resident with a problem or a special need, needs government responsiveness!
Eliminate "Pay to Play" because our Representatives serve the citizens who elect them.
Keep Government Transparent
Root Out Spending and Waste as a fiscal conservative, striving to reduce government cost and root out waste.
Cut Red Tape and Bureaucracy because, as an attorney, he knows that effective laws must be succinct and cogent. Laws should impose NO undue burden on residents or businesses.
Keep Government Transparent because although Miami and Miami Beach have excellent employees and representatives, "deals" must be transparent, negotiated with public comment.
Your agenda is Jonathan Parker's!
