Florida Senate Minority Leader Jason Pizzo further elaborated during a recent interview on why he formally left the Democratic Party this week, arguing the party lacks “direction” and has no “purpose” on how to deliver results for constituents.
Pizzo said Friday on NewsNation’s show “The Hill” that his criticism is directed both at the Democratic Party and the state party, but “I think mostly on myself for spending so many years raising so many millions of dollars and donating the same to try to artificially resuscitate, you know, a group or a clutch of people that really have no direction and have no and have no purpose on how to solve things with sound policy.”
Pizzo became the third state lawmaker to exit the Democratic Party in recent months. Speaking on the floor of the state Senate in Tallahassee, Pizzo said on Thursday that “for today, I FedExed my voter registration form to change my party affiliation to no party affiliation.”
