That's a wrap! The 2022 Legislative Session is officially behind us. While many of our fights were hard this year, I’m proud of the work we accomplished for Florida’s Veterans, our local small businesses, and towards fixing our damn roads!
As the vice-chairman of the bipartisan Veterans’ Caucus, we passed game-changing legislation to help our Veterans fill critical shortages in our classrooms, take on the challenge of ending Veteran suicide statewide, and help military spouses find work by recognizing their out-of-state licenses here in Florida.
As one of the most pro-business members of the legislature from either party, I stood up for our small businesses against frivolous lawsuits. I fought against new data privacy lawsuits that would have cost the state’s Main Street businesses an estimated $80 BILLION in new compliance and litigation costs. And I helped pass sweeping workforce reforms to help with our ongoing staffing crisis across the state.
I promised I’d fix the damn roads, and I’m doing just that! The Bloomingdale and 301 intersection improvements are on schedule to be done in just a few more weeks, and work is beginning on the Big Bend/I-75 interchange and Boyette. Our Bipartisan Infrastructure deal, numerous local projects, and helping fix the All for Transportation debacle by rerouting the $500m back into Hillsborough's local road projects are all part of my ongoing effort to get us all moving again.
I couldn’t have done any of it without YOU helping get me here! It’s been the honor of a lifetime representing you these last two years. I’ve loved every minute of it and I hope to continue to serve in the years ahead. After all, we’re just getting started!

I’m the only Democrat running for reelection in a district where Trump beat President Biden, so I’m going to need each and every one of you. Our seat is going to be harder to win than it was last year, when we won it by just 1%.
Thank you for believing in me and staying in the fight. Let’s go win!
