Hard to believe

We have reached a moment for which we were not prepared nor expecting. I am sure you feel as bereft as I do right now. We all wanted this presidency so badly for our country, for our future, for our children, family members and people we know, love and cherish.

But it was not to be.

And now, although this is fresh pain and as Hillary said, we will feel it for a long time, we know what we have to do.

We. Must. Fight.

Whatever challenges come our way, I promise you that I will continue to fight hard to protect the families of South Florida. I’m going to need you by my side.

Before that hard work begins, I want to say once again, thank you!

With your help and unwavering support, I will continue serving my South Florida constituents in Washington. I couldn’t be more grateful for everything you’ve done.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

You’ve always had my back. You worked your hearts out throughout this campaign — and I’m going to need that same energy as we move forward.

Again, thank you for absolutely everything you’ve done. I wouldn’t be where I am today without all of you. Take some time to rest and reset, and then we’ll get to work once again.

We’ve got a lot in front of us but I’m ready. And I know you will be too.
