Higgins' website highlighted the following campaign themes:[1]

The Lost Summer of 2013

  • Excerpt: "The lost summer of 2013 was a stark reminder that our rivers are an essential source of our quality of life and the engine of our economic well-being. No issue is more important than restoring and maintaining the environmental health of our estuary."

Florida Healthcare

  • Excerpt: "Florida needs to reform its dysfunctional ways in healthcare. Mary is a Medicaid provider with 23 years experience working with Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security programs, and KidCare. She has extensive firsthand knowledge of the scope and interactions of these programs."

Education

  • Excerpt: "Florida's teachers currently rank 47th in the nation in pay. It's time to stop making our teachers scapegoats and treat them with the respect they have earned and deserve. Teachers are not the problem, they are part of the solution."
