SPLC Action Fund Endorses Bobby Rea for Homestead City Council

MIAMI – The SPLC Action Fund today endorsed Bobby Rea for Seat 3 on the Homestead City Council. Mr. Rea is a lifelong resident of the city and former police chief.

“Local elected officials have a tremendous impact on the everyday lives of individuals,” said Madison Hollon, program manager of political campaigns for the SPLC Action Fund. “It is essential that those who sit in these positions are truly devoted to serving the community. Mr. Rea is committed to fighting for Homestead families, particularly protecting the rights of immigrants, which is why we are proud to endorse him.”

The SPLC Action Fund is focused on lifting up communities of color, particularly in the Deep South, who face systemic oppression, poverty and structural racism. To overcome these injustices, the organization is committed to reimagining the political, economic and social systems that sustain them to create a world where all people can thrive.

In pursuit of this bold agenda, the SPLC Action Fund supports candidates who share its commitment to addressing the deep inequities that plague our nation.
