It’s a glorious day for the beginning of a new golden age in America. Congratulations, President @realDonaldTrump, on being sworn in as our next Commander-in-Chief. The American people wanted real change, and I look forward to supporting your agenda in getting our country back on track and undoing the damage done, both domestically and abroad, by the previous administration.

¡Libertad para Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara! ¡Libertad para todos los presos políticos!
🔴La campaña por la liberación del artista cubano Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara entra en su fase final con un llamado internacional a creadores para acompañar, día a día, la cuenta regresiva hasta el 9 de julio de 2026, fecha prevista para el fin de su condena. La iniciativa busca mantener presión pública mediante obras y publicaciones que visibilicen su caso. ⭕Otero Alcántara lleva casi cinco años en prisión tras su arresto durante las protestas del 11J en 2021, enfrentando denuncias de violaciones a sus derechos, incomunicación y negación de beneficios legales. Intentos jurídicos para adelantar su liberación han sido rechazados, mientras crece el temor de que se le fabriquen nuevos cargos para prolongar su encarcelamiento. CUBALEX

Miami-Dade County will not be a safe haven for businesses that ignore federal sanctions or engage in commercial activities involving entities controlled by the Cuban communist dictatorship. Following reports that Vanguard Energy entered into contractual arrangements involving CUPET, Cuba’s state-owned oil company, my office revoked the company’s Local Business Tax Receipt. This action comes after the U.S. Department of State publicly stated that Vanguard Energy had not received a U.S. license for the reported transaction and reaffirmed that U.S. sanctions remain fully in effect. It also follows the announcement by Secretary of State Marco Rubio that CUPET has been sanctioned under President Trump’s Executive Order 14404. When the U.S. Department of State speaks clearly on sanctions compliance, local governments have a responsibility to take notice. Businesses operating in Miami-Dade County must comply with federal sanctions, state law, and local requirements. This is about the rule of law, accountability, and protecting the integrity of our business community. Miami-Dade County will not serve as a base of operations for activities that undermine U.S. foreign policy, violate federal law, or provide support to a regime that has denied freedom to the Cuban people for more than six decades. We stand with the rule of law. We stand with the Cuban people. We stand with the efforts of President Trump and Secretary Marco Rubio to deny the Cuban dictatorship the resources it uses to control and repress its own people. #DarielFernandezTaxCollector #thepeopleguy #mdctaxcollector #MiamiDade #RuleOfLaw FreedomForCuba StandWithTheCubanPeople HumanRights Accountability CubaLibre CommunityFirst

The leader of the Foreign Terrorist Organization Tren de Aragua has been eliminated. TdA is a violent criminal organization that has partnered with transnational terrorist and criminal networks, spreading violence and instability across the United States, Venezuela, and beyond. President @realDonaldTrump has made it clear: the United States will not tolerate threats in our hemisphere that endanger American lives. 💥 ISIS – destroyed 💥 Qasem Soleimani – eliminated 💥 Nicolás Maduro – captured 💥 Ali Khamenei – eliminated 💥 TdA leader “Niño Guerrero” – eliminated No hesitation. No weakness. Just results. God bless our troops and President Trump. 🇺🇸
🚨 IT'S OFFICIAL: President Trump has INFURIATED the Democrats by killing a leader of Tren de Aragua in Venezuela The strike was DIRECTLY coordinated with the government of Venezuela — the "experts" are stunned! "We will find these vicious murderers and drugs lords anytime, anyplace, and send them to the depths of hell where they belong!"

June 12th commemorates the 1948 signing of the Women's Armed Services Integration Act, which allowed women to serve as full members of the U.S. military. Today, we thank all the courageous and brave women who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces.

With President Trump and Secretary Rubio, there is no confusion or doubt about the nature of the regime in Cuba. They know exactly what they're dealing with. I commend them for once again demonstrating true American leadership and using every tool at our disposal to hold the Castro regime accountable for its crimes. The days of these murderous dictatorships in our hemisphere are numbered.
Today, I am sanctioning Cuba’s state-owned energy company, Unión Cuba-Petróleo (CUPET), under President Trump’s EO 14404. Cuba’s Communist elites have weaponized energy as a tool of social control and kleptocratic profit. For decades, the regime has stolen and hoarded available fuel — using it for the Castros’ private jet, the security services forces used to repress the Cuban people, to keep empty tourist hotels lit up, and to bus people in for fake protests and political stunts — all while the Cuban people have suffered blackouts and waited weeks to fill their cars. President Trump wants a new future for the Cuban people with greater economic and political freedom and opportunity. Until then, we will continue to target the Communist regime’s ability to leverage its energy trade to further its corrupt agenda and violently repress the Cuban people.

⚠️⚠️El Congresista Mario Díaz-Balart pidió al Departamento de Estado y al Departamento de Seguridad Nacional revisar el estatus migratorio de familiares de Alejandro Castro Espín que residen en Estados Unidos. “Los esbirros del régimen castrista y quienes se hayan beneficiado a costa del pueblo cubano oprimido no tienen cabida en Estados Unidos”, afirmó el congresista. La solicitud incluye la posibilidad de revocar beneficios migratorios si se determina que fueron obtenidos en violación de la ley estadounidense. @MarioDB

¡Los esbirros del régimen castrista y quienes se hayan beneficiado a costa del pueblo cubano oprimido no tienen cabida en Estados Unidos! ¡Que se larguen de aquí o enfrenten la justicia y la rendición de cuentas, como hemos visto recientemente con la hija de un general castrista! La era del apaciguamiento bajo Biden se acabó.

🇻🇪¡Un placer conocer a @williamsdavila en libertad! Williams fue capturado violentamente en agosto de 2024 y encarcelado injustamente en El Helicoide, una de las peores cárceles del mundo, por defender la democracia y la libertad. Hoy está libre. Pero cientos de presos políticos siguen secuestrados por la tiranía. No descansaremos hasta que todos sean liberados y Venezuela recupere su democracia. ¡Hasta el final!

Congratulations to Cameron Hamilton from Naples on being awarded the Congressional Gold Medalist Class of 2026! It was a pleasure meeting Cameron and his mom during the Congressional Award Gold Medalist fly‑in in Washington, D.C. Cameron completed more than 400 hours of voluntary public service across animal sanctuaries, rehabilitation centers, and conservancies; more than 200 hours of personal development and leadership training; and more than 200 hours of physical fitness. His commitment, hard work, and dedication truly stand out. I’m continually inspired by the exceptional young people of Florida’s 26th District. Keep up the great work, Cameron — we’re proud of you! @theaward

I commend @TomColeOK04 and @CongMikeSimpson for advancing the FY27 Interior funding bill. Next stop➡️ House floor. As co-chair and co-founder of the Congressional Everglades Caucus, I'm proud to continue supporting major Everglades preservation and restoration through critical funding and through the codification of the Clean Water Act's Section 404 program to streamline processes so that important work can move faster and more effectively. Additionally, I'm proud to deliver critical water infrastructure upgrades in Hialeah and Medley, through funding that aims to replace aging pipes, reduce leaks, and improve reliability.
My FY27 Interior & Environment Bill PASSED out of @HouseAppropsGOP Committee! ✅ As Chairman, I promised to write a fiscally responsible bill that rightsizes federal agencies, supports the Trump Admin's policy goals, and reduces regulatory burdens. Next stop, the House floor!

I'm pleased to have voted in support of @RepAndyHarrisMD's FY27 Agriculture funding legislation, which puts farmers, ranchers, and rural communities first. Among its many wins, it supports Florida's citrus industry by providing over $72M for citrus health response, including $11M to combat citrus greening disease.🍊 @HouseAppropsGOP
From sunup to sundown, American agriculture never stops. Our FY27 Agriculture bill backs our farmers and ranchers, strengthens vital supply chains, and helps keep America fed, secure, and strong.
