FL-16: Margaret Good (D)

About Good: 

As a state representative, Good has built a reputation as a legislator who reaches across the aisle to find solutions to help Floridians.

Her mother is a retired nurse and her father, a fourth generation Floridian, was an Episcopal priest whose ministry took the family to small towns all across the south. She also comes from a military family. Her uncle fought and died in Vietnam and her great grandfather and grandfather fought in World Wars I and II, respectively. 

After college, she went to work at the United Way where she focused on helping families achieve financial stability and gain access to health care and early childhood education programs. Good then worked at the Florida Agricultural Center and Horse Park. Knowing she wanted to continue her service as a lawyer, Good attended the University of Florida Levin College of Law, where she served as editor of the Florida Law Review and graduated with honors.  

After law school, Good moved to Sarasota with her husband, Richard, and her dog, Barney. As an attorney at Matthews Eastmoore, Good has worked with businesses, individuals, and government entities to ensure the rights of members of Florida’s community are protected.
