Proven advocate with a track record of delivering significant appropriations, policy victories, and legislative protections. Adept at navigating Florida’s political process to secure funding, shape regulations, and block harmful proposals.

Jessica Love brings more than two decades of successful experience representing clients before the Florida Legislature, Governor’s Office, and state agencies. Known for her strategic insight and persistence, she has successfully advanced complex appropriations, defeated high-impact legislation, and guided policy changes that benefit industries and communities across the state.

Her recent work includes helping to secure tens of millions in state funding for infrastructure, utilities, public safety, higher education, and healthcare. She has helped obtain appropriations for major water and wastewater system expansions, bridge rehabilitations, and facility upgrades, as well as recurring operating funds for technical college programs. Jessica has also led efforts to increase annual allocations for state tax credit programs and clear longstanding funding backlogs.

In the healthcare arena, she has consistently helped deliver multi-million-dollar graduate medical education funding for primary care hospitals, while safeguarding her clients’ regulatory interests by advocating against repeated attempts to create new licensing categories and helping secure favorable amendments to bills with significant operational impact.

Jessica’s ability to combine policy expertise with a strong network of valued relationships has earned her a reputation as a go-to advocate for clients with complex, high-stakes priorities in Florida’s political and appropriations processes.
