PAAF Supports Prosecutors Who Enforce Our Laws, Stand With Victims

Arlington, VA – Protecting Americans Action Fund President Jessica Curtis released the following statement on the suspension of Orange-Osceola State Attorney Monique Worrell. 

“George Soros supported Monique Worrell to be the Orange-Osceola State Attorney because he knew as a prosecutor, she would refuse to enforce our laws.  Governor DeSantis’ suspension of Worrell is a step in the right direction for victims and Floridians as a whole. At Protecting Americans Action Fund, we work to elect prosecutors who will enforce our laws – we successfully defended Bruce Bartlett to serve as Pinellas-Pasco State Attorney, and we will do everything we can to defeat these liberal prosecutors who put criminals before victims, both in Florida and across the country.”
