Hillary and Tina interview Florida State Representative Bobby DuBose from District 94.

This accomplishment follows his many years of service as Commissioner for District 3 with the City of Fort Lauderdale. Additionally, Representative DuBose was elected as Chair of the Broward Legislative Delegation for 2016-2017.

Representative DuBose received his Bachelors of Arts degree in Economics from the University of Florida. After graduation, Representative DuBose returned to his hometown neighborhood where he learned the true meaning of “to whom much is given, much is required.”
