Governor DeSantis and Cabinet to consider proposal to deed land for the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library

Press release from the Office of Governor Ron DeSantis

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Today, Governor Ron DeSantis announced that at the upcoming September 30, 2025, meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund, he will propose an item to convey a 2.63-acre parcel in Miami-Dade County adjacent to the Freedom Tower for the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library.

“President Trump has achieved results for the American people and made a lasting impact on our nation’s history,” said Governor Ron DeSantis. “No state has better delivered the President’s agenda than the Free State of Florida, and we would be honored to house his presidential library here in his home state.”

The agenda item is part of the September 30, 2025, meeting of the state’s Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund (Board). The Board, comprising the Governor as Chair, the Attorney General, the Chief Financial Officer, and the Commissioner of Agriculture, was established in 1855 and is responsible for the acquisition, management, protection, and disposition of state lands.

The parcel is currently utilized as an employee parking lot for Miami-Dade College’s Wolfson Campus. If approved by the Board, the site would provide additional economic development opportunities across South Florida and become the first Presidential library established in the state, providing generations of Americans the ability to honor the service and legacy of America’s 45^th and 47^th President, Donald J. Trump.
