As Congress stood in recess last week, I had ample time to tour the district and meet and listen to the hardworking residents of Florida's 19th Congressional District.
If our nation has not endured enough troubles on the domestic front, the weakness of this administration has left us highly vulnerable on the world stage. Our biggest adversaries, China, Iran, North Korea, and Russia, smell blood in the water and are preparing to take advantage of American weakness at home and abroad. Under the previous administration, America experienced monumental achievements in international diplomacy that reaped from seeds of strength, peace, and the America First policies of the commander-in-chief. The incompetence of this White House and the appeasement of the CCP, the Iranians, and the Kremlin speaks to Biden's long history of failures when in control of international affairs.
This past week, the nation celebrated National School Choice Week recognizing the importance of expanding educational opportunities for students. It's because my mother demanded more out of my education that I'm serving as a United States Representative. School choice empowers parents, uplifts minority and lower-income communities, and offers every child access to a world-class education. As a former Florida State Legislator, I worked diligently in a bipartisan manner to expand school choice in our state to ensure that every child has the opportunity to succeed and flourish academically. It's time for parents to have priority in regards to American education—not bureaucrats.

By limiting access to this life-saving treatment, this administration is playing politics with the American people's lives. Thanks to the leadership of Governor DeSantis, Floridians have greatly benefitted from the wide accessibility of MAB's to combat COVID-19. To suddenly prohibit the emergency use of this treatment is haphazard, political recklessness, and jeopardizes the health of millions.
