And then also activists on the ground, many Republicans were on the ground fighting for civil rights. So it was really an honor to be there and commemorate something that is a part of American history.

Well, look, I'm going to vote for the bill. And it's very simple. We got to give Donald Trump the breathing room he needs to get the agenda done. I hate CRs. I don't even want to be in this position. In my view, we should have took care of this back in December, but that didn't happen. So we are where we are. The real game up here is budget reconciliation.

If we can get the budget reconciliation bill done, that's the president's agenda. mirrored with spending cuts that are going to be important to get our debt and deficits to begin to get them under control. I mean, we're not even fully getting them under control, but that's the starting place. That's going to be the best that we can achieve out of the current environment.

I think as frustrated as people are, understand Democrats in the Senate, if we need six or seven of them to vote for anything when it comes to spending, they want to be able to still carve out a lot of these spending monstrosities. which is why I think the leadership couldn't negotiate the appropriations bill.

Frankly, the second the election was over, but that's not what happened. And so unfortunately, we're in this place where the president has asked for us to support it. I'm going to support it. That way we can get to budget reconciliation, cut mandatory spending and reform mandatory spending while passing his agenda.

And then when we do appropriations over the summer, then you can bring in the stuff that Doge has been doing, those cuts that they've been bringing. You can cut that stuff out. You can do all the other additional reforms and begin to stabilize the federal budget.

Well, first of all, yeah, my candidacy went official yesterday. We filed the papers in Tallahassee. And so I'm in the race and I'm running. And for me personally, We have a great state.

Rates are going up.
