Community Newspapers endorses Nick Duran for Florida House Seat 112

A long-time leader in the non-profit community, and now a proven leader in Tallahassee, Nick Duran is running for re-election to the Florida House of Representatives District 112 to help improve the quality of life for families and children in South Florida.

In his first term as state representative, he showed his mettle by serving on the Health Care Appropriations Subcommittee, Health Innovation Subcommittee, Commerce Committee, Energy and Utilities Subcommittee, and Joint Committee on Public Counsel Oversight.

In his first two sessions in Tallahassee, Duran has quickly developed a reputation as a thoughtful, policy-oriented legislator, with a uniquely credible voice on health care, education and small business issues. He has successfully championed important local organizations and projects helping steer over $12 million dollars toward important local organizations and efforts.

In addition to his public service, Duran he has served in a variety of leadership roles in health care policy and community engagement. In 2010, he joined The Children’s Movement of Florida, one of state’s largest early childhood organizations. In 2013 Nick became the State Director for Enroll America in Florida, managing a team of over 40 staff members and five offices across the state to ensure that every Floridian had access to quality, affordable health care.

He believes the state should fully fund a high-quality education for all children and increase access to high-quality health care. He also supports common sense gun-safety laws, building an economy that is fair for middle class families, and will address sea-level rise as consequence of global warming – which he says is an imminent threat to the Florida economy.

Duran has a bachelor’s degree in Public Relations from the University of Florida and a J.D. from New York Law School. He served as state chair for the University of South Florida Covering Kids and Families State Coalition, and is a member of Leadership Florida.

For Florida State House of Representatives District 112, Community Newspapers recommends Nick Duran.
