The men and women who served this country earned every benefit and every right they were promised. Mike will fight to ensure our veterans receive the care, resources, and respect they deserve. He supports a strong national defense and a military that is focused on protecting America, not advancing political agendas.

Parents know what is best for their children. Mike championed school choice in Tallahassee, giving families the freedom to choose the school and education that works for them. He'll bring that fight to Washington and stand against any effort to cut parents out of decisions about their children's education and values.

Mike stands 100% with President Trump on immigration. We need to finish the wall, deport the criminals and fraudsters, and restore law and order at our southern border. Florida's families deserve security, not an open-border disaster.

Mike has always fought to protect life. He believes Dobbs was correctly decided and that states, not Washington bureaucrats, judges, or politicians, should set their own policies that include exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother.

I am outraged that the Supreme Court has legalized anchor babies and birth tourism here in the United States. I will not allow this to stand. My first act in the Congress will be to introduce a Constitutional Amendment to clarify that birthright citizenship is only available to those who are permanently and lawfully present in the United States. “No person shall be a citizen of the United States by reason of having been born in the United States, unless at least one of their parents is 1) a citizen of the United States; 2) an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence in the United States whose residence is in the United States; or 3) an alien with lawful status under the immigration laws performing active service in the United States Armed Forces.” I will file a discharge petition as soon as possible and continuously urge my colleagues to sign it and will not relent. I sponsored four Florida Constitutional Amendments and placed one on the ballot during my Florida House career.

I have not seen such evidence. I am gratified that fossil fuel use has decreased due to more efficient cars and alternative energy. This makes us less dependent on events in unstable areas of the world, and ensures that consumers are not subject to fluctuating prices. Any move toward electric vehicles or energy efficiency should be based, as it largely has been, upon market forces or consumer demand, rather than government mandates or subsidies. Any government attempt to manipulate the economy usually fails. Immigration response continued: The first reform would be to complete the wall so that unauthorized persons and contraband cannot enter the country. Second, asylum must be limited and the procedures followed. Persons seeking asylum must do so in the first safe country, and must do so at the embassy or border, not claim “asylum” when they are captured in the United States. Further, asylum is only when somebody is singled out for improper treatment (e.g. political prisoners).

Balance the budget and limit spending and other legislation by Congress to its Article 1, Section 8 powers. Eliminate pork. Let government perform no function better served by nonprofits or the private sector. Ensure allies bear the cost of their own defense. Limit entitlement programs to the truly needy and infirm and create no new government programs.

The Constitution is written in plain English, not Hieroglyphics, Cuneiform, or Chinese. Neither I nor any Court must explain the plain language of the Constitution, which does not admit of any new exceptions, and is applied according to the common law in accordance with textualist/originalist principles. Other than the well-worn exceptions for defamation, specific incitement to imminent lawless action, and “shouting fire in a crowded theater,” there are no exceptions.

Both. The Congress may of course inquire into the conduct and the spending of any government agency, and Article II vests executive power with the President.

I reject the premise of the question that women or any other group lacks “easy and affordable access” to documents to prove citizenship. I introduced legislation in the Florida House to eliminate charges for identity documents, which are in any event affordable. (Because the charges are nominal, I deemed the costs of collecting them to be wasteful.) Surveys in supposedly “disadvantaged” communities show that proof of citizenship requirements pose no significant burden on eligible voters.

Other than operating the service academies, the GI bill, and any other education programs for federal employees, the federal government should play no role. Anything beyond training government employees is not within the legitimate exercise of Congress’ limited Article I, Section 8 powers, or any necessary and proper application thereof. Adventures outside Congress’ enumerated powers result in expansion of government, waste of recourse, and unwieldy mandates.
