David Jolly

Florida spent $600m of our own money on this, with no real prospect of refund by feds For comparison, it’s almost 3x what state allocated to affordable housing last year. It’s also the annual cost of extending our free PreK to all day (instead of only 3hr/day)

New: Florida intends to shut down Alligator Alcatraz, the high-profile immigration detention center that it opened last summer in the Everglades, according to a federal official and three people familiar with the facility’s operations.

Another great night in Sarasota. Many thanks to the good folks with Florida Veterans for Common Sense. Just a remarkable night. Join us!

From our family to yours, we wish you a wonderful Mother's Day filled with much love and many warm memories.

Sarasota Peeps: David Jolly, former republican and moderate candidate for Florida governor, will speak Monday night at Unity Church on Proctor at 7 pm. Event hosted by Veterans Group. Please come!

NEW: Gov. Ron DeSantis is now backing plans to shutter Florida’s state-run immigration detention facility in the Everglades, 10 months after the state opened it and after spending hundreds of millions of dollars on its construction and operation. miamiherald.com/news/local/imm…

Unfortunately, this morning’s jobs numbers confirm what I have been sounding the alarm on for months, and what many Florida families are already feeling — Florida is falling behind on jobs. We’re losing tens of thousands of jobs every month and our unemployment is behind the national average AGAIN. Something needs to change. There needs to be a relentless focus on growing our economy, recruiting more job creators, and getting Florida BACK TO WORK.

Florida deserves leadership that lifts people up. This campaign is about hope, unity, and believing in what our state can become again. A Florida that leads in education and opportunity. A Florida where everyone is respected, welcomed, and heard. A Florida for all. Many thanks to Pastor R.B. Holmes for his leadership and kindness.

If Andrew Gillum had won in 2018, Florida’s COVID response would have looked very different. I stood with the Governor to defend medical freedom—and I’ll keep fighting to protect it. We can’t afford to put those freedoms at risk by electing David Jolly. Stand with us. Support medical freedom and our campaign at voterenner.com

Join me in celebrating a very special birthday for @laurajollyfl. If you've met her, you know. If you haven't, I wish you the opportunity. For me, our family - and yes for our campaign - we're stronger because of her grace and strength. Thank you for being a part of our lives.

Great to be in beautiful Miami for the @f1miami Grand Prix! 😎🌴

Incredible day organizing and canvassing throughout South Florida, and ending the night at the SAVE Champions of Equality Gala. Change is here, folks. Change is here.

Out in Pembroke Pines with Vice Mayor Michael Hernandez and our incredible volunteers. Knocking on every door, connecting on the issues that matter.

Florida’s next governor gets massive shoutout from President Trump! “A man who NEVER stops fighting for the state of Florida, I know him, he is a FIGHTER, @ByronDonalds!”

President Trump - at his event this p.m. in The Villages - is praising Florida GOP candidates on the 2026 ballot. Says of @ByronDonalds "this guy is going to be a great governor ... Byron, you're going to be fantastic."

This is concerning. Florida’s jobs numbers continue to get worse. Unemployment shot up to 4.7% — higher than the national average. Florida lost almost 38k jobs year over year in March.

Florida’s ⁦@GovRonDeSantis⁩ offers an ⁦@RepJeffries⁩ impression— touting new congressional map passed by the FL Legislature, yesterday. DeSantis is expected to sign it, likely triggering a court battle over the constitutionality of the proposed districts.

Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) says Donald Trump has delivered on his promise to lower prices and gets an “A” on the economy. @PabloReports: Do you think Donald Trump has delivered on his promise to lower prices? Donalds: Yeah, he actually has. I remember where we were with the Biden administration. PabloReports: What grade would you give him on the economy? Donalds: He gets an “A.”

Florida is the Freedom State—not New York. If David Jolly wants big-government control over healthcare, he’s in the wrong place. I stand with @GovRonDeSantis to protect medical freedom and keep the government out of your personal decisions. The legislature should’ve done the same.
