In Congress, Oliver will champion bold constitutional reforms to strengthen democracy and ensure every voice counts.

Electoral College

Millennials, Gen Z, and every generation today lives with the consequences of two presidents—George W. Bush and Donald Trump—elected despite losing the popular vote. These outcomes have had devastating consequences: endless wars, economic collapse, a deadly pandemic response, and massive transfers of wealth to the ultra-rich.

For younger generations, a lower standard of living than our parents is now the norm—not the exception. It’s time to move beyond the outdated compromises of the slave-state era and build a democracy that reflects the will of the people.

Constitutional Reforms

In 2024, over 1.5 million Floridians voted for Amendment 4 to guarantee the right to abortion—but it failed due to Florida’s 60% supermajority requirement. The same happened with Amendment 3 to legalize recreational marijuana.

These anti-democratic thresholds, gerrymandered state legislatures, and court rulings like Shelby County v. Holder have blocked progress for decades. Florida is living proof of what happens when minority rule overrides majority will.

Oliver will support legislation like the For the People Act and John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, and fight to:

• Ban partisan gerrymandering through independent redistricting commissions

• Enact automatic and same-day voter registration

• Expand access to open primaries and ranked choice voting

• Overturn Citizens United

• Impose ethics and anti-corruption standards on all branches of government, including a ban on stock trading by members of Congress

He will also support abolishing the Senate filibuster, expanding the House of Representatives and the Supreme Court, and granting statehood to Washington, DC and self-determination—including statehood if chosen—for Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands.

Florida—and the country—deserve a democracy that works for all of us, not just the powerful few.
