Progressive Club: U.S. House Candidate Sapp

Progressives of the Islands are hosting a talk with Howard Sapp, a candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in Florida’s 19th Congressional District, serving Southwest Florida, on Thursday, Feb. 19, from 5 to 7 pm at St. Michael and All Angels Episcopal Church on Sanibel. Sapp is a community leader, a retired federal air traffic controller, an educator, a minister, and a devoted family man.

Raised in Fort Myers with deep local roots, he has dedicated his life to service, both in his community and in his career choices. After retiring from the FAA after more than 30 years protecting travelers and ensuring public safety, Sapp has continued to serve his community as a non-profit leader and in ministry as a licensed Reverend.

According to Sapp, he is running for Congress to be the servant leader Southwest Florida deserves and is championing affordable housing, quality education, healthcare access, environmental protection, and economic opportunity for every family.

If elected, Sapp wants to help build a Florida where all families thrive while bringing honest, compassionate leadership to Washington, D.C. Sapp will speak to POI members and guests at St. Michael and All Angels Episcopal Church, 2304 Periwinkle Way, Sanibel.
