Mrs. Baez-Wallis, a Registered Nurse with more than 25 years of dedicated healthcare experience is running for the District 8 Commission seat.
Lawyers, real estate agents, & career politicians have always held seats as Miami-Dade County Commissioners, but never a public servant like Karen Baez-Wallis.
During the COIVD vaccine rollout, SEIU’s YouTube page ran a promotional video, “Give It A Shot - Commissioner Danielle Cohen Higgins”.
This was released on February 23, 2021.
On June 24, 2022, SEIU released its “Florida 2022 Endorsement Roll Out”. At no surprise, SEIU decided to endorse Mrs. Cohen-Higgins, the currently appointed District 8 Commissioner.
Mrs. Cohen-Higgins also secured an endorsement from Ruth's List, the only organization in the state of Florida to provide free structural support to pro-choice Democratic women candidates.Instead of SEIU using a healthcare professional such as Karen Baez-Willis, a Jackson Health System employee/SEIU member who actually cared for COVID patients. Oddly this Union representing our most dedicated healthcare workers choose to team up with Danielle Cohen-Higgins, an attorney to advocate for the COVID vaccine.
On June 24, 2022, SEIU released its “Florida 2022 Endorsement Roll Out”. At no surprise, SEIU decided to endorse Mrs. Cohen-Higgins, the currently appointed District 8 Commissioner.
“In May 2019, Cohen Higgins filed to run for Levine Cava’s seat in anticipation of a potential Special Election for the seat. But after Levine Cava’s Nov. 3 victory, the Miami-Dade County Commission opted to appoint a replacement in District 8, citing the $1 million-plus cost for a Special Election.”Danielle Cohen-Higgins is an attorney with extensive experience in complex commercial litigation.
“She began her legal career at one of the nation’s largest and most prestigious law firms, Greenberg Traurig, where she gained extensive experience in complex commercial civil litigation.”
Not surprisingly, an ethics complaint was brought up in March 2022 about resolution 88-21 a construction project that Mrs. Higgins-Cohen has strongly advocated for since being appointed to her Commissioner seat.
Ruth's List is the same organization that welcomed Mrs. Cohen-Higgins in 2018 to its executive committee.
Mrs. Cohen-Higgins has made the most of her time as District 8 Commissioner by securing her status as Crypto-Queen.
"Commissioner Cohen Higgins will present a plan on January 20, 2021, before the Board of County Commissioners urging our County Mayor Daniella Levine-Cava to spearhead measures on both the local and state level to attract headquarter relocation. In partnership with the Board of County Commissioners and the Mayor, she seeks to create an economic development plan to attract the technology industry from Silicon Valley to relocate its headquarters to Miami-Dade County."
