Message from Senator Campbell
Dear Friends and Neighbors,
As many of you are aware, the 2018 Legislative session concluded in March. I would like to share with you the incredible work that was accomplished on your behalf in Tallahassee, which I believe will bring much needed jobs and economic development to Senate District 38.
This session I sponsored numerous Appropriations Project requests and I am pleased to share that I have secured $3.7 million dollars in local project funding for cities and businesses in District 38. In addition, I was also instrumental in helping secure over $125 million dollars for Miami Dade College. In total, this adds up to more than $128.7 million dollars in state funding for District 38 this legislative session.
