Dear friends,

I hope you are enjoying our sunny Florida weather this summer. We are so fortunate to be living in a free, open state, which just happens to have great weather too! We have seen reports that there are one-thousand people a day moving in to Florida. They have seen how prosperous we are and how many opportunities that we have here that may not exist anywhere else in the country. We have one of the best, most affordable education systems in America. We continue to expand school choice and allow families the freedom to determine how and where their students will learn. We continue to invest in our beautiful, natural resources and this fiscal year alone, funding from the legislature totals nearly $300 million, which go in to the Resilient Florida Trust Fund and the Water Protection and Sustainability Trust Fund. Our cost of living is nearly half of that of California’s or New York’s. We do not suffocate our businesses with burdensome taxes and regulation and our citizens can earn a paycheck, free of state income taxes. We are not following the failed, authoritarian policies of mask ordinances or vaccine passports. We do not tolerate rioting, looting, or the destruction of private property by lawless groups of Marxists. Our houses of worship are open and we maintain that the State has no authority to order their closure under the first amendment of the constitution.

We have much to be grateful, indeed, but we must be vigilant. All of this ends if the Democratic Party is able to get control of any branch of our government. Our Governor, Ron DeSantis, will need our help in November of 2022. We hold a slim majority in the Florida Senate and one or two lost seats can put us jeopardy. If you love faith, family, freedom, opportunity and life itself, then now this time to be engaged. Talk with your friends and neighbors and explain to them what is at stake. Yelling on social media may help us blow off steam, but it is the personal contact and the involvement in clubs and organizations that help us focus our energy and efforts that can make the difference. Let’s make America Florida.

Onward & Upward,

Senator Dennis Baxley
