Under Gov. Ron DeSantis, "Florida" has become synonymous with attacks on LGBTQ rights, public schools, and unions. Yet this offensive isn't only driven by hatred and ideology. It's also about curbing the power of Florida's progressives—power that was building steadily before DeSantis came along. State House Rep. Anna Eskamani and Nailah Summers-Polite join The Marc Steiner Show to talk about Florida's recent trajectory and the prospects for a future progressive comeback.

Anna Vishkaee Eskamani is a member of the Florida House of Representatives from the 47th District in Orange County.

Nailah Summers-Polite is the Co-Executive Director of Dream Defenders.
