Disaster in Surfside

As you may know, on Thursday, a horrible tragedy occurred in Surfside when a high-rise residential condo complex partially collapsed. According to local officials, there are five confirmed deaths, and 156 people are still missing. I am devastated for everyone impacted and thankful to our first responders working tirelessly on the front lines.

Governor Signs Aquaculture Bill

This week Governor DeSantis signed my aquaculture bill into law. The legislation supports our local clam farmers, allowing them to remain competitive in the marketplace and continue producing the best clams in the United States! I firmly believe in finding common ground to deliver good policy that benefits our community, and this bill accomplishes that goal. 

Ambassador for Change Award

On Friday, my colleague Rep. Toledo and I were awarded the Ambassador for Change award from 21 and Change Florida. They are a wonderful, nonprofit organization that promotes inclusion, education, and human rights for alternatively abled people. I'm proud to win this award and excited to continue working with our local nonprofit community. Click here to learn more about 21 and Change Florida.

Team Andrew Hosts Canvassing Kickoff

We also held our 2022 Re-Election Campaign Canvassing Kickoff event this weekend. Volunteers from all across the Brandon area showed up to knock on doors and connect with voters directly about the issues that matter to them. When running a grassroots campaign in a swing district, canvassing is essential to winning elections. Thank you to everyone who volunteered, and we will be scheduling more canvassing events soon!
