“I am proud these organizations and elected officials have placed their trust and confidence in me, many after personally interviewing my opponent and me. As the only candidate in this race born and raised here in the district and with real governmental experience, I am ready on Day 1 to hit the ground running on issues most important to Floridians: property tax relief, the high cost of living and property insurance, protecting the unborn and our constitutional rights, and slowing down out-of-control development. I will work to prevent Jacksonville from dumping treated wastewater into our rural communities. I will continue to stand with law enforcement and our first responders. I will work hard for the people of north central Florida, always remembering to protect our environment by keeping our state clean and also keeping our fiscal house in order. ”
