James, before we get started, why don't you take a minute and tell everybody, 31 years old,

you can enjoy life, you can travel, you can work hard, you can build a business. Why are you

running for the governor of Florida at 31 years old? Patrick, I'm running for Florida

governor because my family has been here for four generations and Florida is the best state

in the country, hands down,

that's why we all live here. I was born right here in Broward County, raised here my entire life.

But if we're the greatest state in the country, why is it so hard for the families who made

it the greatest state in the country to afford to live here? I meet people every single day,

including just last night in Sumter County where we held a rally of 100 people.

I can no longer afford my property tax bill, my homeowners insurance, my HOA, whatever it may be, I can't get a great paying job.

I can't buy a home. That's a real fight. And so I'm in this race to deliver a real plan to make Florida affordable, to make life a little bit easier. I believe we are the best state in the country, but that has to mean something for the families, the young people, and the seniors who made it the best state in the country. How do you do that? Right off the bat, you end the H-1B scam. No more H-1B workers will be allowed in Florida. those jobs will go to our recent grads. We're going to ban Blackstone, Private Equity, and foreign nationals from buying up single-family homes hoarding and cornering the market. So you and your kids and your grandkids, Patrick, they can buy a home. You know why? Because a home is not a nice to have. It is a need to have. If you can't buy a home,

can you get married, Pat? If you can't get married, can you have kids? And if you can't have

kids, what's the point? We know that as Christians. It's a precondition. And then let's talk

about overdevelopment and sprawl in our state. You look at a Google map over the last 15, 20 years, a satellite map,

entire communities where citrus groves once stood, where cattle ranchers once herded their

lots. Guess what? Those are now becoming AI data centers, become Section 8 style housing.

I believe this is a choice between old Florida and New Florida. If you want Florida to become the AI

data center capital of the world, you can vote for Congressman Byron Donalds. If you want us to

become the financial capital, the concrete jungle, vote for Byron Donalds genuinely. But if you

want citrus, ag, tourism, space, if you want a state that we all can be proud of, if you want to protect our

Everglades, if you believe that our jobs belong to us, if you believe that we should be able

to buy single family homes, not Chinese nationals, if you believe that Washington, D.C. should send
