As costs continue to climb and paying for the basics is becoming more and more difficult for Florida families, I hear every day about the heartbreaking struggles folks in our state are facing just to make ends meet right now. It makes me think about what my mom went through when I was growing up, and we lived in public housing. She had to work odd jobs to make ends meet, and there were plenty of days when we didn't have much food on our table. Today, too many Floridians are facing the same hardships my family did when I was growing up. Inflation has been up for 37 straight months, and Floridians are sick and tired of the failed Bidenomics agenda that is stealing their paychecks—costing them $24,000 more since President Biden took office.
Look at where our country is today: PPI inflation is up 19.4% and CPI inflation is up 19.9% since Biden took office, more Americans are working multiple jobs to make ends meet, businesses are closing and the American Dream is being traded in for more reckless spending in Washington. With Biden at the helm, Democrats have made it clear that they want more government, more spending, more debt, higher taxes and they don't care one bit if that means less freedom and opportunity for you. I won't accept that, and I'm fighting every day to turn us back in the direction of fiscal sanity to stop this inflation nightmare.
My mom raised me to believe that I was the luckiest kid in the world because I got to grow up in America, where anything is possible if you work hard enough. We have to protect that dream for our kids. I won't stop fighting against Democrats' tax-and-spend agenda and to protect our American Dream before it is destroyed.

One more thing…This week, we learned that five Americans, including one Floridian, have been detained in Turks and Caicos. Over the last three days, I have spoken with British Ambassador to the U.S. Karen Pierce and the U.S. State Department about these Americans, and demanded that every action be taken to bring them home. I am also urging the State Department to update its travel advisory for Turks and Caicos with a warning about these arrests so that other Americans are informed of this serious issue. Please take the time to read this and share it with anyone you know who might be traveling to the area soon!
