Dear Friend,

It was a historic week fighting for Northwest Florida. This week, Congressman Patronis met with people across the district, from health care providers to defense industry leaders, to hear directly about their needs and bring their priorities back to Congress. He also spoke out in support of Dalilah’s Law as we marked one year since three innocent Floridians were tragically killed on Florida roads. Congressman Patronis will continue fighting for Northwest Florida and the people who call it home.

SHALL NOT INFRINGE

Congressman Patronis joined nearly 50 of his Republican colleagues in Congress in signing a bicameral letter led by Congressman Andrew Clyde and Senator Steve Daines urging Attorney General Todd Blanche and the Department of Justice (DOJ) to defend a landmark victory for the Second Amendment.

KEEPING MORE OF WHAT YOU EARN

Okaloosa County is keeping more of what they earn! For 2026, the average taxpayer will see an estimated $3,998 in tax savings, providing real relief for hard working families. I’ve always believed you spend your money better than Washington does.
