Ramon Alexander

Rep. Ramon Alexander, six months away from becoming the state House Democratic leader, became embroiled in controversy this week after a report detailed allegations made by a former Florida A&M University employee.

The lawsuit seeks to block the new law and a rule approved last year by the State Board of Education that targeted instruction on critical race theory.

Florida Democrats are trying to rebound from a disappointing election cycle. Incoming minority leaders Ramon Alexander and Fentrice Driskell are looking to help their side rebound.
