Orlando, FL– Anna Eskamani’s campaign for House District 47 announced the endorsement of Congresswoman Val Demings!

Val Demings is an American law enforcement officer and elected official who serves as a member of the United States House of Representatives from Florida’s 10th congressional district. Earlier in her career she served as Chief of the Orlando Police Department — and was the first woman to do so.

“Anna’s leadership and life-long commitment to empowering her community, whether it’s as an educator at the University of Central Florida or as an advocate of women’s health with Planned Parenthood, are unmatched in this race,” state Congresswoman Val Demings. “Her passion for turning advocacy into action has inspired a wave of grassroots support because she not only shares their values but vows to protect them. Now more than ever, Tallahassee needs bold leaders like Anna who will fight for hardworking families. I am proud to endorse Anna Eskamani for State House District 47.

The endorsement of Congresswoman Val Demings adds to the early endorsements of Congresswoman Stephanie Murphy and Congressman Darren Soto. Anna shared the following:

“I am honored to have the support of Congresswoman Val Demings. Val is a fierce advocate for Central Floridians and her history as a woman of color in law enforcement is one that I deeply admire, and respect. She is one of our region’s most highly regarded leaders, and her trust in me to serve the great people of House District 47 speaks volumes.”
