Representative Carlos Guillermo Smith made history as Florida’s first openly-LGBTQ+ Latino lawmaker after being elected in 2016. Carlos has continued to break barriers in the legislature and enact change for the people of central Florida, fighting against GOP attacks on LGBTQ+ youth, keeping Florida communities safe from gun violence, and protecting workers’ rights. He is ready to return to the House for a fourth term and continue leading Democrats towards a more equitable future for Florida.
