Angie Nixon reveals what's next after losing Florida's U.S. Senate race

The election is over, but for Angie Nixon the fight is just beginning. The former Jacksonville state representative and community organizer who shook up Florida’s political system as the Democratic Party’s U.S. Senate nominee announced Thursday night that she is launching a new political action committee to turn the grassroots energy she galvanized across Florida into lasting political power for working families. “Our mission is simple: to build the political and economic power of everyday hardworking people, so they can determine the future of their communities and shape the economies that sustain them,” she said on a Zoom call Thursday evening as she launched the Never Scared PAC. Nixon, who lost to incumbent Sen. Ashley Moody, said the new PAC will focus on civic engagement, developing new leaders rooted in their communities and ensuring “working families have a voice in our elections.” “Never Scared PAC is not just about the next election; it’s about the next generation,” she said. Despite losing the contest, Nixon has remained in campaign mode. On Thursday’s call about what’s next for the grassroots, door-knocking coalition she built, she told supporters that what they had “built together matters.” “I know Tuesday night wasn’t what we wanted.
