Proudly representing -19 in the United States Congress | Official Press account

The United States Space Academy belongs right here in Florida.

For generations, the Space Coast has been America’s gateway to the stars.

Our Florida Delegation stands completely united, and we are ready to work with the administration, the presidential commission, and our colleagues in Congress to deliver this vital mission.

Thank you to all who attended today’s event, and an extra special thank you to our event host site, Blue Origin. Let’s get to work!

I am proud to stand alongside Senator Ashley Moody in leading the House companion to the STARS Act.

Establishing the Space Academy on Florida's Space Coast creates an unmatched competitive advantage—giving cadets daily exposure to NASA, the U.S. Space Force, and private industry.

To equip the next generation of aerospace leaders, the academy must be located where the action is.

America leads. Florida launches.

Tonight, I was a proud YES on H.R. 9340, the Ratepayer Protection Act, because growth and innovation should not come at the expense of hardworking American families.

We are making sure that ratepayers in Florida and across America do not pay more for data centers, and we will continue to protect Florida's vital water resources for the future of our state.

This morning, I spoke before the House Committee on Natural Resources in support of my bill, H.R. 9017, the Restore Florida Water Independence Act of 2026.

In 2024, a federal district court in Washington, D.C., stepped in and stripped Florida of its rightful, state-level authority to handle Section 404 wetland permits.

Since then, our state’s safety projects, habitat restoration, and critical infrastructure have been stuck in federal bureaucracy, burdened with delays of 18 months or longer.

My bill puts Florida back in charge and restores permitting authority to those best equipped to protect our state’s natural resources: Floridians.

It’s been 25 years. We will never forget.

We still mourn the 2,977 lives lost on that horrible day — families in New York and across America shattered by an act of cowardly, unthinkable violence.

We still remember the heroes — the first responders who ran towards danger, the patriots who rushed the cabin of United Flight 93.

We will never forget. Erika and I are praying for all of the 9/11 families today.

One year ago today, we lost a true American patriot.

Charlie Kirk’s legacy will live on through the millions of young people he inspired and the movement he built around defending faith, family, and freedom.

Miss you, brother. We’re still in the fight. 🇺🇸

Proud to sign on with fellow members of the Florida delegation to formally request that our state be the permanent home for the United States Space Academy.

To properly shape and equip the next generation of aerospace leaders, the academy must be located where the action is—in the shadow of our nation’s premier launch facilities.

America leads. Florida launches.

Promises made, promises kept! 🇺🇸

Thanks to President Donald J. Trump and Republicans, prescription drug prices are hitting their lowest levels in more than 60 years.

This is what America First policies look like in action.
