It has been one of the great honors of my life to serve as your 10th District Representative in Congress. I will be keeping America’s newly elected leaders in my prayers as they fight for the safety of our communities and the restoration of the American Dream.

I believe in the promise of America because I have seen the promise of America. We can do anything if we honor our common values and treat every person with dignity and respect.

Housing is simply too expensive for too many Floridians. I fought hard to lower middle class taxes and increase funding for affordable housing in the federal budget. I will never stop championing this basic human right.

Everyone counts and everyone is accountable, up to and including the President of the United States. The January 6th attacks were provoked by the former President. There is no doubt about this. We watched the tragedy of the day unfold right before our very eyes.

America is a great nation and we never have to settle for those who lie, steal, and cheat, or those poor timid souls who lack the courage to hold them accountable. I am grateful for the members of the committee who put patriotism before politics.

A safe community should be the right of every American. I introduced the VICTIM Act to help solve unsolved murders and shootings and get violent criminals off the streets. The Senate should pass it.

10 years since #Newtown. The #SandyHook shooting took 27 lives, including 20 children. Today we remember them. Today we recommit to honor their memory by pushing for commonsense gun laws.
