Former professional baseball player Alex Rodriguez recorded a robocall for Democratic congressional candidate Donna Shalala.
Shalala is running in a tight congressional race in Florida's 27th Congressional District against Republican Maria Elvira Salazar.
Hi, this is Alex Rodriguez asking you to support my friend Donna Shalala for Congress. Donna Shalala is a great Miamian who was president of the University of Miami for 14 years and led us to new heights. In addition to educating fellow Miamians, Donna also helped to create over 5,000 jobs with an annual economic impact of six billion for South Florida, Rodriguez said in the call.
Her time at the U and her work as a U.S. secretary for health and human services, where she helped bring healthcare to nine million kids, make her the best candidate for district 27. Please support Donna Shalala for Congress, he added.
