Issues: Death Penalty Criminal Justice
A 40-year resident of Southwest Florida, keeping our community safe is one of Kathleen's top priorities. Kathleen has cracked down on crime, voting for 50-year mandatory minimum sentences for certain sexually violent offenders (2014, HB 7027). Kathleen co-sponsored the Timely Justice Act to expedite the execution of prisoners on Death Row, bringing closure to victims and their families and saving taxpayer dollars (2013, HB 7083).
The Florida Sheriffs Organization honored Kathleen with the Friend of Sheriff Award in 2017.
