Nelson's public
service career began in 1972, with his election to the Florida Legislature.
Bill Nelson started
in the Term Limit U.S. Federal Senate in 2000.
My count in Term
Limits is 18 years not 46 years
What about Senator
Robert Carlyle Byrd, Frank Raleigh Lautenberg, Daniel Ken, Daniel Kahikina
Akaka and more are older in service?
Nelson was elected
to the Florida Cabinet as state Treasurer, Insurance Commissioner and Fire
Marshal. During his six years in the post, he showed he was a common-sense
problem solver and strong consumer advocate.
Nelson was first
elected to the U.S. Senate in November 2000. Since then, he's stood up to the
insurance companies, Wall Street banks and Big Oil. He's exposed the lies of BP
about the Gulf spill. And he's created a blueprint forward for our nation’s space
agency. Now in his third term, he's continuing to fight for lower taxes, better
education, Medicare and Social Security.
He's someone who
thinks public service is a noble calling - which is why he has devoted his life
to serving his community, his state and his country.
