Senator John Fetterman is scheduled to be the keynote speaker at the Florida Democratic Leadership Blue 2024 gala in Orlando this weekend. The announcement, made by the Florida Democrats, highlighted Fetterman's non-traditional political approach and his grassroots victory as a model for battleground states. However, the Democratic Progressive Caucus of Florida has called for his removal as keynote speaker due to his position on Israel, particularly his "unwavering support" following the events in Gaza on October 7.
