Great to have you in St. Johns County, @SenRickScott!
With hurricane season quickly approaching, Floridians need to be prepared.
I’m in Ponte Vedra Beach this afternoon with @TeamSJSO and @RepRutherfordFL because there is nothing more important than making a plan to keep yourself and your family safe. The most important thing in a storm is YOU!

An incredible honor to join President @realDonaldTrump for dinner at the Rose Garden earlier this week.
CFO @GovGoneWild- appreciate you, my friend! Thank you for spending the evening with us!
Thank you LG @JayCollinsFL for attending the ‘St. Johns County Day’ reception in Tallahassee! I am grateful for your friendship and for all you do for
our veterans, law enforcement personnel, and first responders.
Thank you CFO @GovGoneWild for stopping by the ‘St. Johns County Day’ reception earlier this week in Tallahassee. You have truly set a different tone as Florida’s CFO
and always have your foot on the gas. Thank you for your friendship and steadfast support of law enforcement.

You can always count on me to support law enforcement and to fight illegal immigration.
Today, in St. John’s County I had the pleasure of doing both as I awarded more than $1.8M to support five of our incredible Sheriffs participating in the 287g program.
Our Sheriffs are on the front lines keeping our communities safe and I’m proud to deliver the resources they need!

It’s an honor to have the early support of so many Florida Sheriffs as we head towards next year’s election.
Florida is the safest big state in the country to raise a family because of their tough-on-crime approach to law enforcement. We have the best sheriffs in the country!

Last week, St. Johns County Sheriff's Office (@TeamSJSO) Sheriff Rob Hardwick (@Rob_HardwickFL) stood alongside Immigration And Customs Enforcement (@ICEgov) Deputy Director Madison Sheehan (@ICEDeputy), @GovRonDeSantis, @AGJamesUthmeier, @FLHSMV Director Dave Kerner, and other Florida leaders to announce historic 287(g) funding for Task Force partners.
This funding is more than a ceremonial check—it’s an investment in stronger partnerships between local, state, and federal agencies. These resources will directly support the men and women of Florida law enforcement agencies and enhance the mission to protect Florida families from drug dealers, human traffickers, and criminals who target our children.
We are grateful for the leadership of Governor DeSantis, our Cabinet, and the Florida Legislature, including @FLSenate President Ben Albritton (@Sen_Albritton) and @myflhouse House Speaker (@Daniel_PerezFL), whose support ensures law enforcement has the tools needed to keep communities safe.
Immigration enforcement is a complex challenge that has been decades in the making, but sheriffs will always uphold the law and work with our federal and state partners to defend our communities.
When law enforcement stands united, criminals don’t stand a chance.

Happy Birthday Commissioner of Agriculture @WiltonSimpson! Kendell and I appreciate your friendship and your unwavering support of law enforcement.
Happy Birthday to First Lady @CaseyDeSantis! Thank you for your steadfast support of law enforcement and all you do for our great state.
Appreciate your support and friendship, Senator @leek_tj!
Thank you, Senator @leek_tj, for your unwavering support of law enforcement and public safety across our state. From standing strong against drug trafficking to protecting our deputies and holding animal abusers accountable — your leadership continues to make Florida safer for all. You were a public safety champion during the 2025 legislative session!

Thank you @AGJamesUthmeier for visiting St. Johns County yesterday to present a ‘Back The Blue’ Award to Kiersten Bridegan and the Bridegan Foundation.

By turning tragedy into a source of compassion, Kirsten Bridegan is making a lasting impact on law enforcement and our communities.
It was an honor to present a Back the Blue Award to Kirsten for her efforts to help others with the Bexley Boxes program—where essential childcare items are provided to law enforcement officers to help them comfort children who find themselves in traumatic situations.
Thank you for your support, @SenRickScott!
Thank you @NewsNation for having me on this morning to discuss how @TeamSJSO is leveraging partnerships and using technology based policing to combat crime.
It was great to welcome @GovRonDeSantis back home to St. Johns County last week where he announced that his ‘Focus on Fiscal Responsibility Budget’ recommends significant pay raises for law enforcement and first responders— including a 20% pay increase for state entry-level (1/2)
His dream inspired the nation. Let us honor the legacy of Dr. King through serving our communities and a commitment to never stop dreaming. #MLKDay
