You may remember the IRS contractor Charles Littlejohn who stole and leaked federal income tax returns and was sentenced to 5 years in prison. Some thought that five years was too lenient while others thought he should not have been prosecuted at all since they believe that Mr. Littlejohn performed a valuable public service by showing how much the wealthiest Americans pay in taxes. The IRS said that 70,000 taxpayer returns were leaked but recently the IRS sent a letter to House Judiciary Committee Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, admitted that the true number was not 70,000 but actually 405,427 taxpayers, 89 percent were business entities.

So how can we prevent this from happening again? There is only one way – Repeal the income tax and abolish the IRS. If the government doesn’t HAVE your confidential data, they can’t LEAK your confidential data. Like an old car, there comes a point when it costs more to repair it than it is worth. Unfortunately, the system is so badly broken that no matter how much we spend to “fix” the IRS and income tax, it will remain a corrupt and broken system. Continue reading →

TALLAHASSEE, Fla.— Governor Ron DeSantis announced that Florida’s labor force exceeded 11.1 million in January 2025, reinforcing the state’s economic strength. Job growth continued across most major industries, including manufacturing, which reached 430,800 jobs.

“Florida continues to prove that leadership and conservative fiscal policies drive success,” said Governor Ron DeSantis. “We will keep the momentum going by insisting on reducing government spending, continuing to eliminate bureaucracy, and finding more tax reductions for Floridians.” Continue reading →

Florida is even more prepared for NASA to move its HQ to the Space Coast

TITUSVILLE, Fla.—Today, Governor Ron DeSantis announced the early completion of the NASA Causeway Bridge in Brevard County, delivering the second of two bridges six months ahead of schedule. The new bridge will officially open to traffic as soon as Wednesday, March 19.

The new, taller, and wider bridges stretch 4,025 feet over the Indian River and, as fixed spans, eliminate the need for drawbridge openings. This upgrade also supports the increasing volume and size of payloads and space industry vehicles traveling through the region’s growing high-tech aerospace corridor. With the opening of the new bridge, traffic will transition to its final configuration—westbound vehicles will utilize the newly completed bridge, while the existing bridge will be dedicated exclusively to eastbound traffic. This $128 million project was made possible through a strong partnership between FDOT, NASA, and Space Florida. Continue reading →

Lambert. “Governor DeSantis and the Legislature have made these investments a priority to provide needed resources for local leaders to take on infrastructure projects that will improve the environment for future generations.” Continue reading →

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Reps. Kat Cammack (R-FL), Kathy Castor (D-FL), Earl L. “Buddy” Carter (R-GA), Diana DeGette (D-CO), Robin Kelly (D-IL), and Ryan Mackenzie (R-PA) introduced the Preventing Maternal Deaths Reauthorization Act of 2025.

This bill would assist states in preserving maternal health throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum, addressing disparities in maternal health and finding solutions to enhance health care quality and outcomes for mothers.

“The maternal health crisis demands urgent action, and the Preventing Maternal Deaths Reauthorization Act is a necessary step toward protecting mothers and babies across the country,” said Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL). “This bipartisan legislation renews our commitment to addressing maternal mortality by supporting Maternal Mortality Review Committees, fostering better data collection, and equipping healthcare providers with evidence-based best practices. Every mother deserves access to safe, high-quality care throughout her pregnancy and beyond. I’m proud to join my colleagues in reintroducing this bill in the 119th Congress, and I urge swift passage to make meaningful progress in saving lives and strengthening families.” Continue reading →

WASHINGTON, D.C. — This week Rep. Kat Cammack and her colleagues reintroduced the bipartisan Fair Access to Agriculture Disaster Programs Act, aimed at removing barriers to agriculture disaster assistance for producers. This bill would provide farmers, ranchers, and other agriculture producers with improved access to federal disaster assistance following natural disasters, ensuring that basic safety net programs are available when they are needed most.  Reps. Jimmy Panetta (CA-19), Zoe Lofgren (CA-18), and Austin Scott (GA-08) co-led this legislation. A companion bill has been introduced in the Senate by Senators Alex Padilla (D-CA) and Thom Tillis (R-NC).

The Fair Access to Agriculture Disaster Programs Act would address outdated adjusted gross income (AGI) limitations that prevent many full-time farmers from accessing crucial USDA disaster programs. These limitations have not kept pace with inflation, and specialty crop producers, particularly those affected by disasters like flooding in California, have faced significant barriers to receiving aid.

Exciting news! We officially launched the Republican Women’s Caucus at the White House on Wednesday alongside President Trump. This new group, made up of female GOP members in the House and Senate, will ensure American issues are women’s issues as we fight to secure the border, restore our energy dominance, and strengthen our economy during the Golden Age of America. I’m thrilled to be the founder and co-chair of the caucus alongside Senator Katie Britt in its inaugural year.

You can watch the news and video from the White House announcement below, and see a bit more of my own personal news—my husband Matt and I are expecting our first baby later this year! I was thrilled to share this news alongside dozens of my fellow female conservative lawmakers who know just how important women and girls are to the future of our nation.  Continue reading →

TALLAHASSEE, Fla.—Attorney General James Uthmeier’s Office of Statewide Prosecution secured a guilty conviction of the owner of Olympus Pools who defrauded Floridians. James Ivan Staten, Jr., owner and operator of Olympus Pools, stole more than $1.5 million from Floridians and failed to complete customer pools. Staten was found guilty of 35 counts, including aggravated white-collar crime, organized scheme to defraud, grand theft, and contractor fraud. Staten accepted large down payments and left many customers in Hillsborough, Manatee, Pasco, and Polk counties with no pools and destroyed yards.

“I’m proud to announce that Prosecutors Stephanie Bergen and Panagiota Papakos secured a guilty conviction for this fraudster who turned many Floridians’ dreams of a backyard paradise into a nightmare, taking their money and digging holes to nowhere,” said Attorney General James Uthmeier. “Little did this fraudster know, he’d be digging himself into a 20-year minimum prison sentence.” Continue reading →

TALLAHASSEE, Fla.— Attorney General James Uthmeier directed an investigation into proxy advisors Glass Lewis & Co. and Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (ISS) for potential misrepresentations related to their Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) investing policies in violation of the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act and possible unlawful collusion in adopting and enforcing these policies in violation of the Florida Antitrust Act of 1980. Civil Investigative Demands will be forthcoming.

“We won’t allow ESG goals to handcuff Florida businesses and threaten Floridians investments,” said Attorney General James Uthmeier. “If these proxy advisors use their overwhelming market power to advance partisan political agendas rather than maximizing shareholder value, we will hold them accountable.”

Glass Lewis and ISS provide vote recommendations to institutional investors and control a large share of the proxy-advisory market, with some estimates as high as 97%. Institutional investors, such as those who manage the portfolios of many Americans’ retirement accounts, rely on proxy advisors to direct them on how to vote their shares. Thus, the decisions of proxy advisors have a substantial influence over how major American companies are run. Continue reading →
