Alligator Alcatraz = internment camp.
This broke me…
“32 individuals inside a cage. It was 81° where we were standing…inside it was probably even hotter. How do I know? Because there was individuals sweating with their shirt off, while they chanted libertad, libertad, libertad.” - State Sen Jones
What we’re seeing at the so-called “Alligator Alcatraz” internment camp is a litmus test, a blueprint for what they want to replicate across the country. I shared what I witnessed on @msnbc.com’s The Weeknight.
State Sen. @shevrinjones.bsky.social, first openly gay member of Florida Senate, is on @victoryinstitute.bsky.social “LGBTQ+ Political Power List” of 26 of the most influential LGBTQ+ state and local elected officials in U.S.
“List showcases an extraordinary group of trailblazers.”
Honored to be named to @lgbtqvictoryfund.bsky.social’s 2025 LGBTQ+ Political Power List.
This isn’t just about identity — it’s about impact. Because when every voice has a seat at the table, we don’t just change policy — we change lives. 🏳️🌈✊🏾
Juneteenth tells a simple truth: freedom was never just given—it awas fought for. And that fight didn’t end in 1865.
It lives on in every policy we write, every barrier we break, and every voice we raise. This day isn’t just about history—it’s about responsibility.
✊🏾Honor it. Live it. Be about it.
🏳️🌈 49 lives taken. 9 years later, the pain remains.
We’re still seeking answers. Still fighting to just be.
Let this be a reminder:
Show up. Speak out. Build the world they deserved.
💚 Honor them with action. Lead with love. Keep going.
We stand in solidarity with the Seminole Nation and every person impacted by this tragedy.
If you FA, you FO! 🔥 #SayNOtoHate
It’s the first day of the Legislative Session and my team and I are ready to get to work! LET’S GO!!!

“There’s no need to sugarcoat it: DEI is the new n-word, and they’re using it to discredit the qualifications of people who are more qualified than individuals who have no qualifications at all,” Florida State Senator Shevrin Jones told the Miami Herald.

President Trump’s recent decision to pause all federal grants and loans will have significant impact nationwide, affecting your family and friends. People’s livelihoods will be disrupted. When you play silly games, you win silly prizes. Many are about to get what they voted for!
On it
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas filled with joy, love, and peace! Whether you celebrate with family, friends, or traditions, may this season bring warmth to your hearts and light to your days. 🎄
Nothing better, nothing stronger, my family! Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃
I thank Senate President Albritton for trusting me to hold the Vice Chair position on the Rules Committee.
The people of Florida deserve results, not partisan games. I look forward to digging in this session and continuing to put families first.
I would love to know when you find out. It’s sickening 🙄
