12 Ways I Will Make Government Work For Us
Floridians are being squeezed by rising costs, and far too many families are falling behind. Nearly 1 in 5 children in Florida, over 800,000, don’t know where their next meal is coming from. That is unacceptable. My economic plan focuses on lowering costs, long-term growth, and restoring dignity for every family in Sarasota, Charlotte, and Lee Counties.

Our Plan to Restore Faith in Government
More than 7 million Florida voters stayed home in the 2024 election. About half a million Floridians are eligible to vote but have yet to register. Seventy percent (70%) of Americans believe "politicians don't care what people like me think."
I'm running to fight for a government that works for everyone—transparent, accountable, and responsive. Where every American has a voice, every vote counts, and our communities thrive by Getting Shit Done in Congress.
1 / Make Government Work for You
-
Better policies: The Prosperity Agenda.
-
Bring collaboration, bipartisanship, and pragmatic policymaking back to Congress.
-
Open and honest representation. A promise to engage the media and constituents: Hold town halls at every public library.
2 / Energize Voters
-
Automatic registration with an option to opt out. Federal government to set standards and provide funding. New systems to be run by each state.
-
Pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act (VRA) to protect voters and make voting easier for American citizens. The VRA addresses discrimination, upholds transparency from municipalities and states in election regulation changes, and makes voting more accessible for language minorities.
-
Promote and support community-based learning for high school students through programs like Embracing Our Differences, Mock Trial, Debate, Key Club, and Teen Court.
3 / Re-Build Federal Institutions
-
Implement Congressional term limits: 6 years for the House, 12 years for the Senate.
-
Establish 12 At-Large Senators to be elected through a national popular vote, boosting democratic engagement by making votes more equally impactful, encouraging candidates to address nationwide issues, and increasing trust that the Senate reflects the popular will.
-
Increase representation in the US House with about 500,000 people per Congressperson.
-
Rebalance the power of the Supreme Court by creating a 13-judge multi-circuit, national panel to hear cases where the US or a federal agency is a party.
Our Student Success Agenda
Allen Spence is a graduate of Florida public schools and the parent of a child currently enrolled in a public charter school. After seeing teacher turnover, classroom disruptions, and the challenges families face navigating Florida's education system, Allen is committed to strengthening public education for every student.
$10,000 Teacher Retention Bonus
Florida students need great teachers in every classroom. By redirecting federal funding from ICE, CBP, Alligator Alcatraz, and "Schools of Hope," we can provide annual teacher retention bonuses that keep experienced educators in our schools and strengthen student learning.
AI & Workforce Readiness
Prepare students for a rapidly changing economy by expanding access to computer science, digital literacy, AI education, career training, and pathways to good-paying jobs.
Free School Meals for Every Child
Guarantee free, nutritious school meals for every child, ensuring no student has to learn on an empty stomach while reducing costs for working families and partnering with local farms.
Streamlining IEPs & 504 Plans
Ensure every student receives the support they deserve by reducing barriers to services, expanding special education staffing, and making IEP and 504 processes more accessible for families.
Stopping School Shootings Through Prevention & Safety Investments
Ensure another Uvalde or Parkland doesn't happen through expanded mental health services, school counselors, violence prevention programs, community partnerships, and evidence-based safety measures.
Uniform Parent Communication System
Promote greater uniformity in parent-school communication systems across public schools.
While many schools use platforms such as Focus and Canvas, a more consistent approach would reduce confusion, improve access, and help families stay connected when students change schools.
