U.S. Representative Cory Mills

June is a time to celebrate the nation we call home and the freedoms that makes America exceptional.

We honor the generations of patriots, service members, first responders, and hardworking Americans who built and defended this great country. From sea to shining sea, we are blessed to live in the land of opportunity, liberty, and self-government.

This month, let’s proudly fly the Stars and Stripes, celebrate our shared heritage, and remember that despite our differences, we are all Americans.

My team had the incredible opportunity to attend Marine Day 2026 at Quantico and experience firsthand what it means to earn the title United States Marine.

From riding in an MV-22 Osprey to watching the unmatched power and precision of the F-35 in action, the day was a powerful reminder of the discipline, sacrifice, and excellence demonstrated by our Marines every day.

Thank you to the United States Marine Corps for putting on an incredible event and for your unwavering dedication to protecting America.

As hurricane season begins, preparation is key for families across Florida’s 7th District. Now is the time to review your emergency plans, build or restock your supply kits, and stay informed through official weather and emergency management updates.

Every household should have:
• A family communication and evacuation plan
• Emergency supplies to last 3–7 days
• Important documents secured in waterproof containers
• Backup chargers, medications, food, and water ready to go

Residents should also take steps to secure their homes by reinforcing windows and doors, clearing gutters, and reviewing insurance coverage before storms develop.

Prepared communities recover stronger and faster. Please check in on neighbors, seniors, and those who may need extra assistance during emergencies.

This Memorial Day, we honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation. Their courage, service, and love of country will never be forgotten.

As we gather with family and friends, let us remember the heroes who gave everything to protect the freedoms we enjoy every day.

God bless our fallen warriors, their families, and the United States of America 🇺🇸

Our office was proud to attend the Volusia and Flagler Counties Law Enforcement Memorial Ceremony to honor the courageous officers who gave their lives in service to their communities.

Their sacrifice will never be forgotten, and their dedication to protecting the people of Florida serves as an enduring example of courage, duty, and selflessness.

I remain an unwavering support for the men and women in law enforcement and will always stand with those who put on the badge to keep our communities safe🇺🇸

My office had the privilege of attending the Seminole County Law Enforcement Memorial Ceremony to pay tribute to the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.

We will never forget the heroes who gave their lives protecting Florida’s 7th District, and we stand with the families, friends, and fellow officers who continue to carry their legacy forward.

I will always Back the Blue and fight to ensure our law enforcement officers have the support, resources, and respect they deserve.

Early detection of Alzheimer’s and related dementias saves families precious time together. That’s why I’m proud to co-sponsor the ASAP Act, a bipartisan bill expanding Medicare coverage for blood-based and other validated early detection tests.

In Florida’s 7th District, we see firsthand how deeply Alzheimer’s impacts families and caregivers. This bill helps ensure seniors get answers sooner, when it matters most.

It’s always an honor to support commonsense solutions that improve care, planning, and quality of life for our seniors.

Today I had a productive meeting with the Mayor of Ponce Inlet, the Mayor Daytona Beach Shores, the Mayor of Winter Springs, and the Mayor of St. Augustine Beach to discuss the needs of Florida’s 7th District.

We focused on one of the most pressing challenges facing our coastal and inland communities and the importance of advancing common-sense, locally driven solutions to better protect homes, infrastructure, and public safety.

I appreciate these local leaders for their commitment to serving their communities and for working collaboratively to address real-world problems affecting families across our district.

This summer, I’m encouraging students across Florida’s 7th District to pick up a book and join the Mills Summer Story Quest!

Elementary and middle school students who read and log at least 5 books over summer break will receive a Congressional Certificate of Recognition and a free book from the Library of Congress Surplus Books Program.

The top 3 students who read the most grade-level books will also receive a special recognition award from my office.

Summer is the perfect time to grow your imagination, strengthen your skills, and discover a love of learning. I hope students across FL-07 will join the challenge and make reading part of their summer adventure!
