As @GunOwners FL Director & @Fuerza2A Co-Chair, I’m proud to endorse @ByronDonalds for Florida Governor.
He's got solid 2A record & wants to repeal Parkland gun control, including:
❌Red Flag Orders
❌Bump Stock/FRT Bans
❌Waiting Periods
❌Under-21 Purchase Ban
Vote Donalds!

What a wonderful celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month at the Florida Governor’s Mansion yesterday!
I want to extend my sincere appreciation to @GovRonDeSantis and First Lady Casey DeSantis for hosting such a special celebration honoring the countless contributions of the Hispanic community to our great state and the United States of America!
As someone who proudly embraces my Cuban and Mexican heritage, it is always meaningful to see our culture, traditions, history, and accomplishments celebrated at this level. While I take tremendous pride in my heritage and the roots that have helped shape who I am, I am beyond blessed and incredibly proud to be an American FIRST! I am grateful to live in a nation where people from so many different backgrounds can come together, pursue the American Dream, and contribute to making the greatest country in the world even greater!
I especially enjoyed the many conversations with individuals from across our great state. Every opportunity to build relationships, exchange ideas, and strengthen connections is an opportunity to create new possibilities for our community.
It was also AWESOME to see one of my BEST friends, @AbeLopezFL , President of the Florida Debate Initiative! One of the greatest blessings along this journey has been the friendships I’ve built, and getting to spend time with a great friend like Abraham made this special occasion even better!
And even as my time as Mayor of Deltona comes to an end, my commitment to our city remains unchanged. One of my priorities during these final days is to continue opening doors and building relationships so that whoever becomes our next Mayor has a foundation to build upon with the next administration in Tallahassee.
Leadership is not just about what we accomplish while holding office. It is also about the opportunities we leave behind for those who come after us.
Another highlight of the celebration was seeing the talented students and dedicated teachers recognized for their incredible artwork and essays celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month! What a wonderful reminder of the importance of educating our children about the history, culture, and contributions that have helped shape our nation. Congratulations to all the award recipients!
@maelenaavila and I are always grateful for the opportunity to represent our beautiful @CityofDeltonaFL at these special events.
Thank you again, Governor DeSantis and First Lady Casey DeSantis, for the gracious invitation, the warm hospitality, and a memorable celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month!
Our heritage is part of our story, our children are our future, and our commitment to serving others is what brings it all together!
God Bless Deltona, God Bless Florida, and God Bless America! 🇺🇸

@MarshallRawson is going to be 🐐 in the State Legislature working aside with our Patriot Governor Byron Donalds.
Florida, make Nov. 3 count!
Vote for @GunOwners-endorsed @MarshallRawson to send GOA's Parkland repeal bill to Donalds' desk in 2027!
Rawson pledged to scrap Parkland gun control—the same anti-gun law @ByronDonalds voted against in 2018 and wants repealed.
Let's repeal it!

James Comey reinvestigated, final Midterm blitz: Good Tuesday morning, folks! @MarcCox971 and @StOnge_Kim welcome @RealFLGunLobby @MOTaxReliefNow @DGanahl & more w/ @punkmc and @Susan6768 nitter.gq/i/broadcasts/1RJZzBawv…
This training works for a Communist regime all about executing unarmed people who simply believe in things like freedom of speech and private property.
.@GunOwners beat the NFA registry in court.
@SA18PIO State Attorney William Scheiner confirms Florida requires no separate NFA registration under §790.221.
Lawful ownership of SBRs, SBSs & suppressors need no NFA form 4s or form 1s.
.@GunOwners fought the NFA, beat its registry in court, and pushed for nationwide relief. ATF now makes registration voluntary for suppressors, SBRs, SBSs & AOWs.
Florida adds no separate NFA registration requirement under 790.221. You can legally own them with no NFA forms.

1 full minute of David Jolly calling for strict gun control and calling for Democrats to flip the House to do it (he was a Republican at the time in 2018).
Jolly is a Phony.
.@JonMartinEsq, thank you for standing up for WE THE PEOPLE & supporting Amendment 3.
From your steadfast defense of the Second Amendment to your fight for our private property rights.
WE THE PEOPLE are tired of government thugs stealing our rights, wealth, & freedom from us.
These counties are already on life support - the State of Florida created a special designation for 29 of the 67 counties and refers to them as “Fiscally Constrained.” I’ve only been in the legislature for 4 years but I’m committed to making our tax system make sense for ALL Floridians and Amendment 3 is a HUGE step in the right direction!
All the people who are against Amendment 3 are anti-liberty officials who love gun control.
Grady Judd loves Red Flags and was against Open Carry.
Not surprising to see him be against Amendment 3.
Anything that empowers the people, the establishment is afraid of it.

Albritton gave you the Red Flag Laws you love so much. He's a Dem with an (R) by his name. Anyone that would sell out his oath is not worth listening to. VOTE YES on Amendment #3
Florida Senate President Ben Albritton has consistently demonstrated strong support for law enforcement and the men and women who work every day to keep Florida’s communities safe. A fourth-generation farmer born and raised in Florida’s Heartland, President Albritton brings a firsthand understanding of the needs, challenges, and values of rural Florida and has made supporting those communities a priority.

When things go bad, leadership matters.
In Florida, Ron DeSantis stood up to Covid and things like gender insanity in schools.
Byron Donalds stood up to mask mandates and 2A red flag laws.
David Jolly ran to Pennsylvania during Covid.
His Lt Gov Gwen Graham has called for schools to have no standardized testing, no grading individual success, and $89 BILLION to be given to public schools with 0 oversight.
Do you think Jolly/Graham will protect Florida during the next crisis?
This isn't shocking.
@Sen_Albritton is a back-stabber and always goes against the will of the people and even the Governor.
As Senate President, he blocked open carry being passed legislatively.
WE THE PEOPLE had to fight for our 2A rights in court because he blocked it.

Another week, another round of Second Amendment news.
From GOA's Midterm Election Guide to the latest developments in Washington and across the country, GOA is breaking down what gun owners need to know.
Watch this week's recap! 🇺🇸
An armed father in Oregon stepped up to save lives.
As a father and former school resource officer, I told @NEWSMAX why @GunOwners is fighting to repeal gun-free zones and pass campus carry. Our children deserve real protection.
Gun-free zones cost lives; it doesn't save them.
.@RepMaxwellFrost, it isn't "gun violence." It is a problem with criminals and making our schools soft targets.
Gun-free zones don't work. Criminals are criminals because they break the law.
We need proper campus carry.
Teachers, staff, and parents should be armed.
I’m devastated to hear about the senseless mass shooting at Silver Rail Elementary in Bend, Oregon.
My heart is completely broken for the victims, their families, & the entire community. Our students deserve to feel safe in their classrooms — and we cannot afford to wait any longer to make that a reality.
We need to end gun violence and pass meaningful legislation now.
