Last night, my husband and I attended the NAACP Annual Freedom Fund Banquet in Clearwater. The theme was Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s famed, “Fierce Urgency of Now.” Before November 3rd, join Team Gray in our fight for the "Fierce Urgency of Now." LeelaGray.com

The Florida heat cannot slow us down! ☀️ We had a great morning knocking doors in Pasco County, speaking with voters who are fired up and ready to change the direction of our country. Only 66 days until Election Day and we are going to make every one count!
Anna Paulina Luna invested up to $500,000 in one of her top donor's oil companies. We must ban Members of Congress from investing in their donors' companies. Our country would be better off if we held politicians to the same standard as our servicemembers. amp.miamiherald.com/news/politic...
Anna Paulina Luna invests big in top political donor’s ‘America First’ energy company
The donor, Bruce Rosenthal, has given more than $40,000 to political groups supporting Luna.

The veteran community in Pinellas County is fired up for November! Thank you to everyone who came out to our event with @votevets.org last night. It was inspiring to speak with so many veterans who are passionate about changing our country for the better, still putting service over self.
Tomorrow, I will be joining VoteVets to bring veterans, military families, and supporters from across FL-13 together for an evening of food, drinks, and community. Join me tomorrow — click the link in my bio to RSVP!
Today, I announce my Anti-Corruption Agenda. To solve this cost of living crisis, and restore trust in our leadership, we need to start by rooting out corruption in every branch of government.
Florida families are worse off today than when Anna Paulina Luna got to Congress. Luna is more focused on herself than serving her district. I spent 30 years in the Army putting service over self. I’ll bring that experience to Congress to tackle the cost of living crisis and root out corruption.
Our campaign was just added to the DCCC’s Red to Blue program. That means this race is officially one of the best opportunities in the country to flip a seat and help Democrats take back the House. If you want to defeat Anna Paulina Luna, chip in here: secure.actblue.com/donate/socialglg
Anna Paulina Luna is an absent Congresswoman. Our neighbors in Pinellas and Pasco Counties are being crushed by the cost of living crisis, and Luna is doing nothing to help because she is more focused on herself than Floridians. LeelaGray.com
It’s official: I am going to be the Democrat to take on Anna Paulina Luna this fall in FL-13. Thank you to every volunteer who knocked doors, made phone calls, and devoted their energy to this campaign. We’ve got a lot more work to do before November. Join the team at LeelaGray.com 🇺🇸
Tonight, I am reflecting on how special this experience is and feeling grateful for everyone who makes this district so exceptional. Being able to call this place home and listen to members of my community fills me with great pride (1/2)
“We raised our hand to defend the Constitution. Congress takes the same oath, and unfortunately, we’re not seeing that same level of service over self today in Washington.” I spoke with @TB_Times about our race and what it means to selflessly serve your country. www.tampabay.com/news/florida...
Democrats run military veterans as they hope for blue wave in Florida
In Democratic primaries across Florida, veterans have gained financial support. Here’s why.

We are less than one week away from the August 18th Primary! I welcome you to join us in Safety Harbor next Tuesday to celebrate the community we are building and all of the hard work we have accomplished together since my campaign launched. (1/2)
Elections belong to the people, not to special interests, corporations, and ultra-wealthy individuals. I’m grateful for the endorsement of @endcitizensunited.bsky.social because the flood of money in politics is drowning out voters. (1/3)
As a retired Brigadier General and third-generation veteran, I appreciate the Democratic Veterans Caucus of Florida for recognizing the importance of service and commitment to defending our Constitution. Thank you @demvetsfl.bsky.social for becoming apart of Team Gray! (1/2)
Organizing in our community and engaging with voters is the most rewarding part of this campaign. Don’t forget to cast your primary vote for the August 18th primary - and send someone to Congress who actually works for the people of Florida. #LeelaGrayforCongress #LeelaJGray www.LeelaGray.com
Luna's words are offensive to survivors of abuse everywhere - and she should immediately apologize to Rep. Miller's wife and family, and return the money she has raised from this alleged violent criminal. x.com/Sollenberger...
Happy 236th Birthday to the United States Coast Guard men and women who stand watch along the beautiful shores of Pinellas and Pasco protecting our waterways, responding when disaster strikes, and put themselves in harm’s way to save the lives of others. #LeelaGrayForCongress www.LeelaGray.com
It is irresponsible to ignore the issues of artificial intelligence and data centers. We live in a constantly evolving world, where technology is advancing at a rapid pace. (1/3)

Small businesses are the backbone of our local economy, and it was wonderful to spend the evening at the Largo Evening Market meeting the entrepreneurs, artisans, and families who help make Pinellas County thrive. (1/3)
Happy 727 Day! From our beaches and small businesses to the neighborhoods and people who make Pinellas County home, there is so much to love about the 727. I am proud to call this community home, proud to be part of it, and ready to fight for its future in Congress. www.LeelaGray.com
It was an honor to join veterans from across our community at a local VFW breakfast last week. I had the opportunity to hear from people with different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives—but we all shared one belief: (1/2)
Whip Clark has spent her career fighting for the issues that actually shape people's daily lives, the ones too often ignored in Washington. She knows what it takes to actually deliver for families, not just talk about it. (1/2)
Today is the deadline to register to vote in Florida. You can check your registration at www.registration.dos.fl.gov/en/CheckVoterStatus/Index. If you are not registered, you can register online at RegistertoVoteFlorida.gov. (1/3)
While this vote was cancelled yesterday my stance stays the same. Congress must do better for Veterans. #LeelaGrayforCongress #LeelaJGray www.LeelaGray.com
Everywhere I go, people are fired up about the pressing issues like tackling the cost-of-living crisis, improving economic opportunities for our youth and small businesses, and restoring accountability to Washington. Great to meet with voters in Pasco County on Saturday. Thank you for your questions
Join me in Safety Harbor on Thursday, July 16th at 6:00PM for a Meet & Greet. I'm excited to continue discussing how we can build a stronger future for Pinellas and Pasco Counties together. Complimentary tickets are available with RSVP. RSVP: secure.actblue.com/donate/7.16s...
Campaigns run on long days, great people, and...Slurpees. I remember getting my favorite Cherry Cola flavor on a hot day as a child. What's your favorite flavor? Happy 7/11 Day from Team Gray! A quick stop before getting back out there talking with voters across Pinellas and Pasco. Stay cool FL-13!
