🚨 The coalition for permitting reform is growing! @AFPhq, @LIBREinitiative, @ConcernedVets & allies are urging Congress to pass BAAJA. Lower energy costs. More jobs. Less red tape. Congress, it's time to act! @PunchbowlNews 👇 punchbowl.news/10-30-26-coal…

Harper’s first day canvassing with @AFPAction! She got to meet some Cape Coral voters and make her best pitch for @ByronDonalds for Governor. I’d say she’s a natural! 🇺🇸

Government running an entire industry always sounds simple in a pitch. It never stays simple once taxpayers are the ones covering the losses. Our State Director @SkylarZander breaks it down. @AFPhq
🚨DAVID JOLLY IS A TROJAN HORSE: State Director of @AFPFlorida slams Dem Gubernatorial Candidate for his proposal of a "sovereign wealth fund" @SkylarZander: "When has it every worked where you take over an entire industry, and say we're gonna put this in government hands?"

Skylar Zander: Florida’s insurance reforms must protect homeowners and taxpayers, not fund David Jolly’s government takeover @SkylarZander: "Affordability cannot be achieved simply by moving costs around, and Florida should be wary of proposals that replace private-market risk with greater government exposure."

I’m old enough to remember when we were called crazy for telling y’all this… last month. We are living in the craziest of times when the libertarians and the labor unions are aligned on free market principles and when yours truly and Axios are in geopolitical agreement.

Our team is at City Hall this morning. Hundreds of millions for a stadium. Zero tax relief for Tampa families already stretched thin. Fix the roads first. Vote NO on the Rays deal. #TampaCityCouncil
A look at the overflow room at City Hall in Tampa as the public comment period is set to start soon ahead of the council's vote on funding toward a Rays ballpark.

Congratulations to a true public servant @BryanAvilaFL on being selected as @ByronDonalds running mate. Bryan is a great lawmaker and he serves our country in the army national guard. He will continue to do amazing things for Florida as our next Lt. Governor! Congrats Moose!

If law enforcement wants to use Flock technology to catch criminals, GET A WARRANT. The Fourth Amendment still exists to my knowledge… We’ve already seen this surveillance technology allegedly misused and abused right here in my district. BLOCK THE FLOCK!

It's pathetic to watch these representatives boast about something that should be deeply embarrassing. Elect better people.
Tampa City Council Chairman Alan Clendenin and Mayor Jane Castor say the newly structured deal for proposed Tampa Bay Rays stadium is a big win for everyone involved. A critical vote on the agreement will be held next Thursday.

I am grateful to my family, my team, my volunteers, and every Floridian who powered us to this victory. Now is the time for the Republican Party to unite. By working together, we can make Florida more affordable and defend the Florida Dream for our families, seniors, and young people. My Democrat opponent would raise taxes, make life more expensive, and bring the Democrats’ radical left agenda to the Sunshine State – Florida cannot afford Liberal David Jolly. David Jolly has lost before, and he will lose again on November 3. United, we will win the Governor’s mansion in 77 days and ensure that Florida remains the best state in this great country.

Falsely accusing someone of being under investigation is a dangerous form of weaponization. This claim is not true. Congressman Byron Donalds is not under investigation.
James Fishback announces that Byron Donalds is under investigation for “federal sex trafficking” as it relates to disgraced Rep. Cory Mills. Donalds has a 98% chance to win Florida’s Republican gubernatorial primary according to election odds. Follow: @AFpost

Every week this bill sits stalled is a week a veteran in crisis waits longer for care that could save their life. This isn't abstract policy — it's faster referrals, mandatory explanations when care is denied, and real access to urgent mental healthcare. Congress has no excuse to delay.
Only 23 legislative days. That’s all Congress has left to save veterans’ lives. As Congress reconvenes, expanded choices and access to veterans’ health care should be priority #1. The Take Care of America’s Veterans Act will deliver, but Congress must act first.

Automobile kill-switches are coming soon to car dealerships near you. I teamed up w/ Scott Perry & Chip Roy to defund this Orwellian mandate, but too many colleagues (Republican & Democrat) voted against us, so the federal mandate for every new car after 2026 is still in place.
Federal law says new cars after 2026 must monitor drivers and shut down if the car disapproves. Your dashboard should not be judge, jury, and executioner. @RepScottPerry @RepChipRoy offered an amendment to defund the automobile kill switch mandate. Here’s our debate:
