Rep. Darren Soto

FL will be HARDEST HIT by Obamacare cuts in the nation on Nov 1st. 4.6 Million Floridians will see HUGE healthcare hikes of 75% or more unless Congress fixes it. The clock is ticking! ⏰ My ⁦@orlandosentinel⁩ Op-Ed: orlandosentinel.com/2025/10/12/com…

Rep. Soto statement on indictment of Raúl Castro.

We strongly condemn this hate crime in San Diego and mourn the three lives lost bravely protecting those inside the mosque. Islamophobia has no place in our communities. bbc.com/news/videos/cy…

This is my idea. I actually wrote the first Sunshine Protection Act and filed it in the FL Senate back in 2013.

Honored to celebrate #ArmedForcesDay at the Grand Army of the Republic Building in St. Cloud this weekend. We are thankful for the brave individuals who answered the call to serve across all branches of our military.

In @NRDems, we discussed proposed cuts to the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the importance of the agency as we see rising unemployment in the Native American community, including the Seminole Tribe in Florida.

This is great news! Researchers have been working on greening resistant citrus varieties for years. 🇺🇸 🍊 Now we must step up to get these new varieties to nurseries across the state, and onto the growers.

In the @EnergyCommerce Environment Subcommittee, we discussed the importance of local and government partnerships to ensure brownfields are able to be safely redeveloped. In Central Florida, many of these sites are now our theme parks, airport, and flourishing local communities.

In @NRDems, I asked @Interior @SecretaryBurgum about plans to work with @USFWS to protect manatees in key areas of our state. After the major mortality event a few years ago, it is critical that proper funding is allocated to prioritize conservation and recreation.

DeSantis presented a blatantly partisan map that clearly violates Florida’s Constitution. Then bragged about it to the nation. At the injunction today, they’re arguing the exact OPPOSITE to Judge Hawkes. It’s understandably not going well for them…

In @NRDems, I spoke to @Interior @SecretaryBurgum about collaborations between the Department & @USACEHQ to move major water projects forward, including the restorations of the Kissimmee Chain of Lakes & Indian River Lagoon. Proud of our work to protect FL's natural resources.

Grateful for the opportunity to connect with @RepDarrenSoto today at #AACROnTheHill and #AACIOnTheHill to share the impact of cancer research and the importance of cancer funding. Thank you for your support for Floridians facing cancer! #FundNCI #FundNIH

The FL Constitution is clear. The map is illegal and it tears Central Florida apart. Tomorrow is the injunction hearing. The court can either defend justice or live in infamy. ⚖️

I had the opportunity to visit the @USArmy SFC Paul Ray Smith, Simulation & Training Technology Center to learn more about their military readiness programs. Proud to see the STTC developing innovations through strong partnerships with @UCF and others in Central Florida.

This map is a blatant partisan gerrymander. The ‘signs’ are flashing like a neon sign. DeSantis literally presented a red and blue district map on Fox News, bragged about adding 4 GOP seats and his own map drawer admitted using partisan data.

In honor of #NationalPoliceWeek, we met with @OrangeCoSheriff to discuss COPS and SAFER grants, as well as other federal funds to increase resources for local law enforcement. We are proud of our collaborations to ensure that those in charge of public safety have the support they need to succeed.

Inflation surged to 3.8% in April crushing Floridians with rising prices and stagnant wages. Tariffs, rising gas prices and mass deportations are to blame. We must work together to do better.

In honor of #NationalPoliceWeek, we visited @CityofKissimmee PD to recognize Chief Broadway and his team for all they do to keep #FL9 safe. We also received updates on their six new drones, which are helping with missing people and potentially dangerous situations.

DeSantis has declared war on all 1.3M Puerto Ricans in Florida. He cracked our community into 4 different districts. We are American citizens. Our people died serving this country. And we will fight this in court and the ballot box. ⚖️ 🗳️

This 400-million-gallon reservoir will capture and treat stormwater, strengthen water resiliency, and help protect vital waterbodies like Lake Toho.

Last week, we had the opportunity to visit the construction site of the Toho Reservoir Water Treatment Facility, a WIFIA-funded project near NeoCity aimed at providing a sufficient water supply to this growing tech hub.
