On Friday, we gathered to remember James “Jim” Sebesta, a true public servant who embodied service, leadership, and faith. We honored his legacy by designating a roadway in his name, a lasting reminder that one person can make a difference and build pathways for others to

My prayers are with the Dixie County Sheriff’s Deputy who was shot last night while responding to a local bar. Our brave men and women in law enforcement put so much on the line serving and defending our communities and state. We owe them everything we can to complete their

Not true. The Florida Department of Health never funded research like this during this administration. The funding you reference has ONLY been given to institutions for HIV/AIDS research. And, somewhat ironically, originated from a member project in the Florida House. As the
Florida taxpayers shouldn't fund cruel transgender experiments on monkeys. @FLSurgeonGen must investigate how our Department of Health dollars were used for these inhumane tests and commit to ending this wasteful spending immediately. Our tax dollars should protect animals, not

As my family and I prepare to make our final decision in the weeks ahead, one thing is clear: Florida is a better, freer place because of @GovRonDeSantis. America is a safer, stronger nation because of President @realDonaldTrump. As a Green Beret, my mission was to the American

Great advice, you should try following it yourself!
When powerful people cheat to get better loans, it comes at the expense of hardworking people. Everyday Americans cannot lie to a bank to get a mortgage, and if they did, our government would throw the book at them. There simply cannot be different rules for different people.

Proud of the efforts by the Florida Department of Corrections to help bring this criminal to justice. Following his arrest and violation of his orders of supervision, @FL_Corrections quickly contacted their partners in Kentucky, who will now take custody.
My office has been working with State Attorney Gladson’s office in Marion County since we were alerted that this dangerous individual who murdered a child by repeatedly stabbing him in the head was in Florida. This afternoon, the Marion County Sheriff’s Office and 5th Judicial

.@GovPritzker is using Illinois state resources to resist President @realDonaldTrump and DHS @Sec_Noem's mission to restore border security. He’s not protecting Illinois — he’s protecting illegal activity. The reckless rhetoric and obstruction from politicians like Pritzker

We’re always grateful to see Florida’s finest, especially when it’s a familiar face! Former Assistant Commissioner, now Undersheriff Lee Massie, pictured with Lt. Gov @JayCollinsFL, @OsceolaSheriff Blackmon, and Osceola deputies.

ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES During COVID, @GovRonDeSantis stood firm when the world told him he was wrong. Florida could’ve fallen like New York. Instead, Florida thrived. Now, Florida is America's CONSERVATIVE PROVING GROUNDS: ✅ Republican supermajority ✅ 1.3M GOP voter

A commitment to law and order is fundamental to Florida’s continued success. In the three years since I signed our landmark law enforcement recruitment program into law, we have invested over $63 million to provide $5,000 after-tax bonus checks to more than 9,400 new recruits

On October 7, 2023, we witnessed unthinkable evil. Hamas terrorists murdered 1,200 innocent men, women and children, including more than 40 Americans, and abducted over 250 in Israel, among them 12 U.S. citizens. It wasn’t just an attack on Israel. It was an assault on

When Pete Hegseth said, “Diversity is not your strength. Your strength is your unity of purpose, your shared mission, your love of country,” he is not making a superficial political statement. He is inconveniently (for some) resurfacing a fundamental truth that has underpinned
