A lifelong Central Floridian with deep roots in the community
Joy’s mother and father were native Central Floridians and raised her right here, attending church and local public schools and graduating from Florida colleges, where she earned her law degree. Joy joined her father in his law office, and slowly built her own thriving practice. Husband, Rich Marcil, started his own small business, and together he and Joy raised three kids who proudly attended the same local public schools which Joy had.
Joy Goff-Marcil knows how important it is to make our community a healthy and safe place to live, work, attend school and play.
A strong, proven record of standing up for Central Florida values
As a Maitland City Council member, Joy helped our economy grow by removing excessive regulations that were holding small businesses back.
As your State Representative in the Florida House, Joy fought to make Florida more affordable, fund public schools and take on corporate polluters, as she worked to insure communities had clean water, lakes and waterways by protecting them from contaminated storm water runoff. Joy also saw that too many working families were being “priced out” and worked to lower energy bills and insurance rates.
As your Orange County Commissioner, Joy will stand up for local control. She has defended home rule for Central Floridians for more than a decade, believing that nobody knows what’s better for their community than the people who live in it.
