Congressman Ted Deutch represents Parkland, Florida, and has long been one of the foremost champions of gun violence prevention in Congress. Deutch was first elected in 2010 after serving for four years in the Florida State Senate. He is a leader able to bridge gaps across the aisle, well known for his tireless and empathetic advocacy on behalf of his South Florida constituents.

The tragic shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland on February 14, 2018, spurred an outpouring of young people calling for stronger gun laws. Deutch has served as an ally to those young leaders since the first days of their movement, using his influential post on the House Judiciary Committee to demand action on gun safety. He has introduced critical pieces of legislation to ban the sale of large-capacity magazines and regulate assault rifles like machine guns under the National Firearms Act. Deutch is an unwavering gun safety advocate, and his district can count on him to continue pushing tirelessly for lifesaving gun laws.

We are proud to endorse Ted Deutch for the US House of Representatives in 2020.
