In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“I'm offering Straight Talk and Real Solutions. I'm not going to Washington to represent lobbyists or party bosses; I'm going to represent you, Florida's Heartland. It's time you had a seat at the table again. You'll always be welcome at my table.”
“When I look at my kids, I don't see 'demographics' or 'voter blocks.' I see the future of Florida. I'm running for Congress because I want them—and your children—to be able to afford a home here, to start a business here, and to feel safe in their own neighborhoods.”
