Fluent in Floridian

You’ve never met a legislator like Representative Anna Eskamani. The first Iranian-American to hold public office in Florida ran a campaign rooted in her identity and values, and it paid off when she overwhelmingly won House District 47 in Central Florida. She fights for women, children, immigrants and all of her constituents back home, but she’s also fighting for a more representative form of government. Representative Eskamani is front and center in the new age of American politics, and she hopes to shape the conversation through her new role. In the newest episode of Fluent in Floridian, SalterMitchell PR Founder + CEO April Salter sits down with Representative Eskamani to discuss her first legislative session, her campaign’s authentic voice and how she inspires new leaders.
