This November, it’s time for conservatives to take back the White House and put an end to the progressives’ liberal agenda. Donald Trump will fight for freedom and families, and he’s got my endorsement and my vote for President of the United States.

State parks allow residents & visitors to enjoy the natural beauty of our state. The parks also preserve natural lands, restore H20 resources & provide wildlife habitat. While I support public access, the plan to build hotels & pickle ball courts on our parks is a step too far.

When we elected @FLGovScott our economy was in shambles and our state's financial situation was poor. Now, Florida is a national leader in job growth and wealth creation thanks to the work and discipline of Governor Scott.
