RON DESANTIS FOR PRESIDENT

Governor Ron DeSantis

(The Theme Song for Ron DeSantis "Never Back Down" and video was written and sung by Floridan Billy Dean)

Govenor Ron DeSantis is a native Floridian with blue-collar roots, Ron was raised in Dunedin by his mother, a nurse, and father, who installed cable boxes. He attended Dunedin High School and worked his way through Yale University, where he was the captain of the varsity baseball team. He also graduated with honors from Harvard Law School, where he earned a commission in the U.S. Navy as a JAG officer.

During his active-duty service, Ron deployed to Iraq in support of the SEAL mission in Fallujah, Ramadi and the rest of the Al Anbar province. His military decorations include the Bronze Star Medal for Meritorious Service and the Iraq Campaign Medal.

Ron also served as a prosecutor in Florida, where he put child predators behind bars. He was elected to Congress in 2012 on a platform of government accountability, advocating for term limits and a balanced budget amendment.

In Congress, DeSantis spearheaded the fight to expose the weaponization of the IRS against conservatives. He also fought to hold accountable the rogue federal agencies involved in manufacturing the "Russia collusion" conspiracy theory. As a veteran, DeSantis was a champion for those who have served our country, pushing for reforms to the VA to better serve veterans and expand support for mental health.

In 2018, Ron DeSantis was elected the 46th Governor of Florida. As governor, he has fought for what's right and taken the arrows for the people he represents. During the darkest days of 2020, when the corrupt establishment, bureaucracy, and corporate media united to force lockdowns and mandates on Americans, DeSantis stood up for freedom -- even when it wasn't popular.

Grounded in his unshakeable belief in America's founding principles, Governor DeSantis has enacted a bold agenda to transform Florida into a blueprint for the Nation's revival. Governor DeSantis has delivered win after win on conservative priorities:

Saving livelihoods from job-killing lockdowns and vaccine mandates

Protecting citizens from the harmful impacts of Biden's border crisis by enacting E-Verify and other bold policies against illegal immigration, such as banning sanctuary cities

Defending parental rights and eliminating CRT

Defunding DEI bureaucracy in higher ed and holding tenured professors accountable

Waging war on woke power-grabs like ESG and central bank digital currency

Enacting the strongest medical freedom laws in the nation

Turning Florida into a model for election integrity

Protecting the unborn

Standing up for the 2nd Amendment by making Florida a constitutional carry state

...and so much more

After leading Florida with common sense and conviction throughout his first term, DeSantis delivered a record-setting victory of nearly 20 points in 2022. He earned his second term by the largest raw vote margin in state history, winning by more than 1.5 million votes.

But history didn't stop there:

Governor DeSantis flipped Miami-Dade County red, winning the majority-Hispanic urban county by double digits. Conventional wisdom assumed this was impossible for a Republican -- as recently as 2016, Hillary Clinton won Miami-Dade County by nearly 30 points.

Governor DeSantis flipped several other blue counties red, including Palm Beach County. He won 62 out of 67 counties overall.

Compared to his first statewide election in 2018, Governor DeSantis was up +19% with Independents, up +30% with Hispanics, and up +9% with women.

Governor DeSantis has ensured that Florida is a free and safe place to raise a family. Thanks to the governor's leadership, Floridians enjoy a low tax burden, quality education opportunities, and a bulwark in place against the Biden Administration's overreach and various elite power grabs that seek to force people to adopt a particular ideology. Thanks to the governor's vision, this year's legislative session delivered the most ambitious conservative policy victories in Florida's history.

This year, Governor DeSantis signed:

Record tax relief

ESG prohibitions

Measures counteracting the influence of the CCP

The strongest medical freedom protections in the nation

Reforms reducing the costs of medications

Bold higher education reforms defunding DEI

Improvements to our state's infrastructure

Tough-on-crime, law and order measures, including the death penalty for child rapists

The strongest measures protecting Florida from Biden's border crisis

Reforms for paycheck protection, holding accountable wayward school unions

Prohibitions on centralized digital currencies in Florida

No leader has accomplished more for his state than Governor DeSantis. He is now sharing his bold vision with the country, leading a movement to deliver the Great American Comeback.
