Abortion and reproductive policy

This bill allows a property owner to file a complaint with the sheriff to remove a person from unlawfully occupying their property and allows the sheriff to serve notice to vacate. It also strengthens the criminal penalties for trespassing, fraudulent documents and sales. This addressed the so-called “squatters” issue we’re seeing around the country. We will not have that problem here in Florida.

Firearms policy

D.C. v. Heller clearly settled the second amendment debate on the individual rights to bear arms. I support the constitutional carry initiative. The narrative from the left suggesting that will open us up to higher crime rates and increased violence is based simply on an outplayed narrative, not the facts. It is past time for Florida to join the 21 other states by passing this constitutional legislation.

Healthcare

Healthcare is a commodity and a service! And much like every other commodity and service, the free market system is the best and most efficient means of producing the highest quality and most affordable outcome. History is repeat with the failures of government-led programs. Market-driven, patient-centered policies are the most effective and proven means of ensuring high quality and affordable healthcare for our families and seniors.
