As high school students plan their future, service through a U.S. service academy is an excellent path.

For nomination information, visit my website or call my office.

Democrats came to Washington today ready to avert a shutdown, but Republicans are out of town.

Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is a Trump shutdown!

They rather shutdown the government than protect the American people’s healthcare. SHAME!

Federal Government Shutdown: Frequently Asked Questions Please note: This FAQ is based on information from prior shutdowns. The Trump administration has not yet made up-to-date agency shutdown or β€œlapse” plans public and Trump himself has made threats to manipulate a shutdown for political gain, change agency operations significantly, and use civil servants as pawns by firing them en masse as he has been all year.

Have questions of what a government shutdown might mean for you?

Republicans control every branch of government: the House, the Senate, the White House, and the Supreme Court.

President Trump had an opportunity to avert this shutdown, but he chose not to. This is a Trump shutdown! End of story.

Millions of Floridians will lose healthcare if Congress fails to renew expiring healthcare tax credits.

Instead of protecting coverage, Republicans would rather shut down the government.

This is unacceptable and Americans will pay the price.

I voted β€˜no’ on the Republicans’ partisan budget plan because it’s outrageous for Republicans to kick millions off their healthcare.

Their budget is designed to force a shutdown and blame Democrats, but we’ll protect healthcare and are ready to negotiate to keep government open.

Diversity is our strength, and both South Florida and our nation would not be the same without the invaluable contributions of Hispanics.

Republicans called a hearing on antisemitism to attack Democrats, yet they are the ones pushing Christianity in classrooms, making Jewish children question whether there is a place for them in their school.

What’s more antisemitic than that? The hypocrisy!

September 11, 2001 changed our nation forever. Today, we remember the thousands of lives cut short, the families left behind, and the first responders whose courage and sacrifice we will forever be in debt to. Twenty-four years later, we will never forget.

Joseph Ladapo’s tenure as Florida’s Surgeon General has been marred by misinformation and harmful narratives.

Enough is enoughβ€”Governor DeSantis must fire him, or Joseph Ladapo must resign before more harm is done.

As a former teacher and principal, I know how vital childhood vaccinations are.

Ending vaccine mandates puts the whole community at risk of preventable diseases.

Decades of research show the effectiveness of vaccines, and we cannot just disregard the health of our children.

Are we losing our minds? This is getting ridiculous and pathetic. Are we trying to kill millions of innocent children? Childhood vaccines save lives.

Abolishing them is insanity.

Governor DeSantis must either remove Joseph Ladapo as Surgeon General or have him resign.
