46th Governor of the great state of Florida.
Joined January 2013
Florida ranks #1 in the country for higher education because we are willing to challenge the status quo. Today at @USouthFlorida, I was proud to announce that our Florida DOGE team has worked to eliminate or repurpose tens of millions of dollars in DEI-related projects at our

Universities across the country are importing foreign workers on H-1B visas instead of hiring Americans who are qualified and available to do the job. We will not tolerate H-1B abuse in Florida institutions. That’s why I have directed the Florida Board of Governors to end this

Larry Keefe has been the man on the ground for Florida’s nation-leading immigration enforcement efforts. We are grateful for his service to our state and the rule of law. He has done an exceptional job across the board.
NEW: Larry Keefe is out as executive director of the state Board of Immigration Enforcement. The governor's office tells me this is a "planned transition." Story coming...

One of my top priorities as governor has been to make Florida the national model for civics education. The Florida Civics and Debate Initiative (FCDI) reflects our commitment to fostering students’ appreciation for America’s founding principles. Since launching in 2019, FCDI has

Free speech and civil discourse are essential to the survival of a democratic republic. Today, those ideals are under threat: One-third of college students believe violence is acceptable to silence speech they find objectionable. Nothing illustrates this threat more clearly than

Federal law prohibits allowing someone to immigrate here if they are a public charge, yet the majority of *legal* immigrant households use taxpayer-financed welfare benefits. Illegal alien-headed households are even worse. The immigration equivalent of ballistic podiatry.
Any Welfare used by households… Native Born: 39% Naturalized Citizens: 52% Non-Citizens: 59% America has a major problem.

A sanctuary city mayor running interference for the cartels.
Chicago is coming together and standing up to the terror ICE is inflicting on our communities. I proudly joined Southwest Side Rapid Responders and Ald. Julia Ramirez to distribute "ICE-Free Zone" signs, Know Your Rights info, and resources to small businesses in Brighton Park.

Where was I in 2018? Running for governor in part on a pledge to sign legislation banning sanctuary cities. Once in office in 2019, I signed the bill banning sanctuary cities into law.
Where was Ron in 2016? How about 2017? 2018? All of you were crickets. Spare me. Sanctuary city for over 40 years. We were screaming about it and now that it’s too late suddenly you all have a voice.

Not that we needed this study to know that cell phones in class detract from learning, but there were naysayers when we did this at the time, so it’s still nice to see.
"A new report from the National Bureau of Economic Research found Florida test scores and student behavior improved in the two years after the legislature passed restrictions on cell phones in class."

The guy who wants to “globalize the intifada” and campaigns with an Islamist cleric with ties to the bombing of the World Trade Center says the real problem is “Islamophobia.”

The bureaucracy is already way, way more powerful than the founders ever envisioned. One major reason is that Congress has deliberately abdicated its responsibility to legislate to the bureaucracy. Why? Because it allows the bureaucracy to do the “dirty work” and makes it
