The Merrick Movement

The Merrick Movement exists to fight for justice, protect families, and restore integrity to government.

We are building a people-powered campaign to ensure that no parent, child, or community ever again suffers from government abuse, political retaliation, or systemic corruption. Our mission is to stand up for those who have been silenced, hold power accountable, and create a future where fairness, transparency, and dignity are the standard — not the exception.

By uniting volunteers, advocates, and everyday citizens, The Merrick Movement is working to transform pain into policy change, and to bring real representation back to Florida’s 5th Congressional District.

About Us – The Merrick Movement

The Merrick Movement was founded out of a deeply personal fight for justice and accountability. Our founder, Antonio Merrick, is a U.S. Army veteran, father, and lifelong public servant who experienced firsthand how government systems can be weaponized against ordinary people. After enduring civil rights violations, the wrongful separation of his children, and systemic retaliation for speaking out, Antonio turned his pain into purpose.

We are a grassroots organization and political campaign committed to protecting families, defending civil liberties, and restoring trust in government. Our focus is not just on winning elections — it’s on building a movement that speaks for those who have been silenced by broken systems.
