Matthew Crowley

Matthew Crowley is running for City Commissioner because working people are the backbone of Winter Haven, and he believes it is time they had a government that works just as hard as they do. As a paraeducator and union member, Matthew knows what it means to fight for fair wages, safe working conditions, and respect on the job. But he also knows that the struggles don’t stop at the workplace. Crumbling infrastructure, unsafe water, and skyrocketing housing costs are daily challenges for too many families. He’s running to put workers and their neighborhoods first, because when labor thrives, the whole city thrives.

Matthew’s campaign is about building a city that values work, respects workers, and invests in the places they call home. He believes that good jobs, strong infrastructure, clean air and water, and affordable housing aren't luxuries, they're rights. As City Commissioner, he’ll bring a working-class perspective to the table and fight for policies that prioritize the people who keep this city running. From sidewalks to salaries, from water quality to housing access, Matthew is ready to stand with labor and deliver real results for Winter Haven.
