My thoughts about Lt. Gov. Jay Collins’ press conference today:

A new generation of Floridians is speaking up and ready for better. They’re tired of division, culture wars, and politics that leaves people behind. They want dignity, opportunity, and real results. The message is simple: Florida can be better, and together we’ll build it.
This is a generational moment for our state. What we do now matters more than ever. Let's go all in and build Florida's next chapter together.
I’m honored to have the support of Senator Brian Nathan.
He understands what this campaign is about: showing up, listening to Floridians, and delivering real results for working families. Together, we’re building a coalition ready to move Florida forward.
A pleasure to be in Lakeland tonight. Change doesn’t start in Tallahassee, it starts with people showing up in communities across Florida. Join us!
Laura and the kids provide the personal strength behind this campaign. I'm blessed and grateful everyday.
New statewide polling shows the race for Florida governor is a dead heat.
David Jolly: 40.5%
Byron Donalds: 41.2%
18.3% still undecided.
This race is wide open. It’s clear Floridians are ready for a real conversation about leadership and the future of our state.
Laura and I continue to tell our kids, "when you have a chance to change the world, you take it." That's what this race for Governor is all about.
Thank you for your continued support of our family throughout this campaign.

A great night in Broward County with the Wynmoor Democratic Club surrounded by voters focused on where Florida goes next.
There's going to be one story this November: that Florida Democrats built a coalition the state has not seen in a generation - big enough to include independents and Republicans, strong enough to fight for all Floridians. This is a coalition of change-makers.
Proud to have the support of Janet Cruz, a leader who knows Florida’s strength lies in its diversity and the need for real change in Tallahassee. Together, we’re fighting for our environment, our communities, and a future that works for everyone.
I speak often on the trail about my faith. Not to evangelize, but because its central to who I am.
Happy Easter to those who celebrate. To those of other faiths, or no faith at all, our diversity and shared values are the heartbeat of this campaign. Thank you for your kindness.
A packed house tonight in Hillsborough County. The momentum continues to build, proving that Florida is ready for change.
We can choose a cleaner future, or double down on risk. Expanding drilling threatens our coasts, our economy, and our way of life. The smarter path is protecting what makes Florida, Florida.
For years, Florida agreed: protect our coast. Now that line is being pushed, hard. More drilling. Closer to shore. We know exactly what that leads to. And once it’s gone, it’s gone. This isn’t just bad policy. It’s a risk Florida cannot afford.
Tonight, the Jewish community across Florida will begin celebrating freedom from tyranny and oppression, celebrating a deep faith and love of family. Wishing everyone a joyful and meaningful Passover.
Chip in now to help us build our coalition and deliver a brighter future for our state.

I wanted to take a moment before tonight’s fundraising deadline to explain why it’s so important.
Democrats just won two special elections here in Florida, and momentum continues to grow. Together, we can win the Governorship in November and lead Florida with courage. But I need your help.
Enough ideologues. More science. Fire the Surgeon General. It's that simple.
Thank you, Congressman Raskin, for inspiring Florida. And my friend is right, we’re going to win this governor’s race in November.
Incredible day in Ft. Myers and Estero, where thousands turned out defending democracy and demanding change!
Great to be in Sarasota with so many friends from Lakewood Ranch and beyond. This is how we build real momentum. Join us on the trail!
Hernando County was electrifying last night! Every town hall we go to it becomes more and more clear, Floridians are ready for change!
Grateful to have the support of leaders who know Florida is ready for something better. Thank you, Senator Shevrin Jones.
Just a HUGE night in Florida politics with Democrats winning previously 'safe' Republican seats in two critical special elections.
Congratulations to Sen. Elect Brian Nathan and Rep. Elect Emily Gregory!
November's coming! Be a part of this!
One of the best parts of this campaign is having real conversations with Floridians about the challenges we face. Our leaders have abandoned public education. Voters across the state know it’s wrong. Time for a 10 year renaissance in public education.
Great to be with community leaders in Miami's Little Haiti, talking healthcare, housing, education, and immigration. We're blessed with incredible visionaries impacting lives each and every day. Florida’s next chapter is within reach.
