Today is a big day for our grassroots campaign. We’re heading to the state capital to file our qualification documents. We choose to be grassroots because if we don’t stand up for each other, no one else will. #brandtforcongress #grassroots #pinellascountyfl #pascocountyfl

In August, Democrats in FL-13 have a clear choice: the donor‑backed establishment candidate working for the interests of a few, or a grassroots campaign built on years of fighting for what matters. My goal in D.C.? To restore stability, and advocate for the affordable, dignified life we deserve.

2/2 Last night, residents of Pinellas County gathered to celebrate Curtis Campogni’s ballot qualification. Curtis is a professional of great integrity, and in my view, he is exactly the kind of person who should serve on the Pinellas County School Board.

1/2 School Board races don’t always get the attention they deserve, but they should. Public education is a pillar of democracy, and the people who serve on our School Board must be competent, solutions-oriented, and deeply committed to the well‑being of students.

We don't want mass shootings or tragedies that could have been prevented. Our kids and communities can't wait anymore. We need Gun Reform NOW. And I'm not worried about NRA "grades" or other special interest groups. I'm unbought and accountable only to the people. We CAN choose a safer reality.

Progressives have historically fought for investing in our own people, creating opportunity and stability- so no, that's not radical. As primaries approach, let’s make clear what unbought progressive democrats stand for. The stakes have never been higher. brandtforcongress.com/donate

Citizens United has corrupted our elections, our democracy and stalled progress across much of society. It's also one reason why candidate choices feel pre‑selected, and why their efforts in Congress don't match your values. Stopping it is a top priority for me. #endcitizensunited #florida

Attending three Memorial Day events, mindful of the origins of this solemn day. One month after the Civil War ended, recently-freed African Americans in Charleston, worked to reinter Union War fallen soldiers. They held a gathering to honor their sacrifices and the meaning of the war itself. ✊🏾🇺🇸🇺🇦

President Trump’s changes to the process for earning a green card, are further proof of the racial bigotry at the heart of his entire immigration policy. For shame.

We want to remind Rep. Luna that we divorced a king 250 years ago — and no, we don’t have kingmakers either. And friends, let’s be clear: our own representative in title is giddy about doing whatever this corrupt administration demands, including pushing the SAVE Act — which is NOT a voter ID bill.

Brandt on the cost-of-living crisis and other issues being a result of bad policy choices. Citing the insightly words of @rbreich.bsky.social

I'm calling for every state to have an Independent Redistricting Commission as a solution to gerrymandering. The gutting of the Voting Rights Act is a five-alarm fire and we must do everything we can to stop the disenfranchisement of our African-American brothers and sisters.

Recalling the empty chair town hall that I co-hosted, where Anna Paulina Luna was invited but declined. 400 residents showed up, I knew then that this was a movement. I'm committing to holding monthly town halls for my future constituents to speak and be heard.

Donald Trump’s latest corruption scheme is deeply offensive to all Americans because it is fundamentally un-American. While every day Americans are struggling, those that fought AGAINST our democracy are being rewarded. In Congress, I will work to oppose corruption at every level. #brandtforcongress

Here's a clip from an amazing meet and greet in April. We had deep conversations which spanned a diverse array of topics. This specific clip is about aiming to understand why some of us vote against our interests, potentially at the cost of others, and calling for curiosity rather than judgment.

This is an all‑hands‑on‑deck moment. We are calling for Independent Redistricting Commissions in every state. It can and must be done. Seven states already have this. Get maps out of the hands of politicians and into the oversight of the people. We will not accept a return to Jim Crow‑style abuse.

Every time we knock on a door, we’re reminded what this campaign is really about: listening to people. Not consultants. Not corporations. People. Want to join us next time? Please sign up on the volunteer link below. In solidarity - Brandt brandtforcongress.com/volunteer/

Citizens United v. FEC (2010). Do you understand the profound impact this decision has had on our political system and on grassroots campaigns like ours? We know it’s a tough but The Things That Matter are worth every step of the journey. Together we will win.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month My friends, Florida’s mental health crisis isn’t a mystery. It’s the result of a broken system that often leaves people without care until they actually reach a breaking point. #mentalhealth #brandtforcongress #grassroots

Today, President Trump admitted that he doesn’t care about American’s financial situations. We continue to waste billions on the Iran war while too many Americans are still struggling to afford the basics: groceries, gas, rent, and housing.

We are just 13 weeks away from the Florida Primary in August — and our campaign has always been about The Things That Matter: YOU. We don’t take corporate money, PAC money, or insider money. brandtforcongress.com/donate/

Our campaign is calling for a new Voting Rights Act that begins with banning gerrymandering across our country. Because voters should choose their representatives — not the other way around. brandtforcongress.com/donate/

In the days since the Supreme Court gutted key protections of the Voting Rights Act, states across the South — Louisiana, South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, and Tennessee — have moved to redraw maps in ways that strip representation from Black communities.

My friends, in a democracy, we MUST be able to call a spade a spade. We need the clarity to speak the truth — and the backbone to stop anyone from twisting it. The idea that criticizing a government equals hatred of an entire people is backward, dangerous— and simply untrue.

Teaching is the everyday practice of the greater good. It’s showing up for the kids who depend on you and investing in their futures. It’s choosing empathy, patience, and dignity, even on the hardest days — because you know how much it matters. Teachers: thank you, we honor you, we stand with you.

After our Governor disrespectfully violated the bipartisan will of Floridians who voted against redistricting, we now have new territory to cover — and we need your help more than ever to meet the basic costs of running a campaign. brandtforcongress.com/donate/

To the Republicans in this district: I’m running to represent EVERYONE. We are fighting for The Things That Matter, like affording life, healthcare for all, securing our rights, funding our schools, and ensuring environmental justice is a priority. The constituents of District 13 are my priority.

Anna Paulina Luna hasn't held a single town hall in her entire second term. When was the last time she faced you? Brandt Robinson is committing to one every month. https://brandtforcongress.com/fight-for-your-family/ #FL13 #FlipFlorida #TownHall

The rights we have today weren’t handed to us — workers fought, bled, and risked everything to win them. And in a moment when those protections are being chipped away, May Day reminds us that we only keep our rights by standing together and refusing to go backward. #brandtforcongress #mayday

As we process yesterday’s Supreme Court decision affecting the Voting Rights Act, Florida’s second round of gerrymandering in just four years — it’s clear we’re witnessing further assaults on democracy. This moment demands solutions, not silence. brandtforcongress.com/donate/ #brandtforcongress

Remember these 3 fundamental facts next time you talk about race, racism, or racial injustice.

We’ve always known that this campaign is bigger than FL-13, this is about the future of our country. We are undeterred. We continue to organize in every corner of this district, continue to have real conversations, and continue to more people into the process every day. In solidarity - Brandt

Healthcare shouldn't be something you and your family have to worry about. In my run for Congress, I'm committed to Medicare for all. https://brandtforcongress.com/protect-medicare/ #medicareforall #universalhealthcare #midterms2026

Every minute of my conversation with Curtis Campogni was packed with truth. This clip is about fairness and equity in education. Educators deserve the freedom to teach accurately, without fear, intimidation and political backlash. #pinellaseducators #brandtforcongress #publiceducation

Apparently, Governor DeSantis doesn’t think it’s enough that Republicans hold 20 of Florida’s U.S. House seats, while Democrats hold 8, with one vacancy. The last time DeSantis pushed for restricting, was in 2022, when he personally intervened and FORCED through HIS OWN congressional map.

Whether it’s hosting dinners for members of the Russian Duma, chasing far‑right German AfD officials for “collaboration,” or appearing Fox News segmentas, one thing has been consistent: Anna Paulina Luna has not hosted a single in‑person town hall for her constituents since serving in Congress.

Viktor Orbán — the dictator who oppressed Hungary — is out. Donald Trump praised Orbán as a "powerful" leader. The people of Hungary finally said enough. We, as Americans, are poised to do the same.

Today is Arbor Day. Arbor Day reminds us that planting a tree is never a small act — it’s a commitment to the future. Let’s plant with purpose. Let’s restore what protects us. Let’s honor the quiet strength of nature. In Solidarity for fiercely defending our natural world, Brandt.

Friends, we need to grab on to joy when we can. Today celebrate World Book Day, the theme is "Reading for Pleasure". So take a break from the world for a few hours and lose yourself in the pages of a good book. We can continue building our country into what it must become... after one more chapter.

Our troops in the Middle East are being forced to ration food. Care packages from their own families aren't even getting through. Trump is watching UFC matches. The people who signed up to serve this country are being disrespected. https://brandtforcongress.com/fight-for-your-family

Protecting our Earth is not partisan, and I’m proud to stand with a community that shows up, speaks out, and takes care of our environment. Let’s keep fighting for our coast, our climate, and the generations who deserve a livable future. In solidarity #EarthDay #ClimateAction #PinellasStrong

I’m a lifelong Democrat — because I support policies that expand opportunity and protect working people. I don’t take a dime from corporations, PACs, or AIPAC. I’m unbought — I answer to my future constituents, not special interests. I am a grassroots, people-funded and led, progressive Democrat.

When we say we’re authentically grassroots this is what we mean: Grassroots means people-powered, not money-powered. • Led by locals, shaped by lived experience. • No corporate strings. No insider shortcuts. • Community first. Always

Our troops in the Middle East are surviving on rations, and there’s not enough to go around Our very own Rep. Anna Paulina Luna voted "NO" to limiting Trump's war powers in Iran. Grassroots candidates like me will vote to ensure that our troops are treated with dignity they deserve. - Brandt

Our campaign for The Things That Matter includes fighting for Healthcare for All as a human right. We know that IT CAN be done. Every other high‑income nation guarantees universal healthcare. In Congress, I will fight for healthcare for all to finally become a reality. #healthcareforall

Americans want money out of politics. When I am elected to Congress, I'll join the effort to reverse Citizens United, one of the most consequential court decisions responsible for much of the corruption and loss of democratic ideals we are seeing today. brandtrobinsonfl.substack.com/p/americans-...

For 25 years, I’ve been deeply involved in my local teachers union — not just as a member, but as a representative defending contracts and educators’ rights across the district. And in Congress, I’ll support Unions and carry on the fight I know so well- the fight for our rights. #brandtforcongress

Asking weekly for contributions to my campaign for Congress is not easy…but if we do not start raising more money, we simply will not beat Anna Paulina Luna in November. Imagine the pride in knowing you helped! I am so grateful to you. brandtforcongress.com/donate/

Recent events have reminded us that our country is at a crossroads. The Artemis II crew, engineers, and scientists — have shown us: from space, we all look the same. One human family. Let’s take a moment to appreciate the Moon‑joy they’ve shared with all of us throughout their mission.

Our campaign is committed to fighting for an automatic enrollment in a comprehensive physical and mental healthcare plan, as well as a NATIONAL plan that supports veteran transition back into civilian life — including expanded education, homelessness‑prevention programs and community‑based support.

We cannot keep voting for political figures who rely on vanity metrics and insider circles. Leaders who prioritize image over substance will represent us the same way in Washington — and that cycle has cost Democrats elections. When you elect me, you get undivided effort — is devoted to you.
