“Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the Charlotte County Emergency Operations Center has been a leader in public safety and their team has worked around the clock to keep us all safe and informed. As we prepare for the rest of this hurricane season, it is reassuring to know that Charlotte County is in capable hands.”

“During an unprecedented crisis like COVID-19, we stepped in to ensure the millions of Americans filing for unemployment benefits were covered as the government urged businesses to shut down. However, this was intended to be short-term solution, and as our economy slowly opens and jobs return, we should now incentivize Americans to help jumpstart our economy by going back to work.”

“Agriculture is the lifeblood of Florida and a crucial component of our economy, bringing food to the tables of millions of families across America. At a time when producers and growers are already suffering, we should not be giving foreign producers an unfair advantage over American producers. This will only exacerbate the challenges our farmers are facing during the COVID-19 pandemic.”

“As our small businesses and economy get back on track, Congress and the federal government need to do everything possible to empower American businesses and set our workers up for success.

If the Democratic majority truly wants to reform our police departments and If they truly want to fix the problems, then the focus should be on the agencies with the problems and their leadership. Not passing a progressive messaging bill in an election year that you know has no chance at becoming law.”

“The market volatility and losses for the meat industry have been unprecedented and devastating. As we continue to watch the long-term effects on agriculture, we will respond appropriately to our farmers and ranchers here in Florida.”

“House Democrats’ radical approach on public safety reforms would have dangerous real-life consequences for our communities and law enforcement officers across the United States. Nobody hates bad cops more than good cops and the input of our dedicated public servants is essential for any meaningful legislation.”

“We all pray for justice for George Floyd but demands to defund the police spring from an outburst of political emotion, not a thoughtful discussion of public safety reforms. Law enforcement is here to protect and serve all Americans – defunding public safety won’t solve any problems and only poses an extraordinary risk to our citizens who depend on society’s most basic governmental service of protecting life and property.”
