Alligator Alcatraz = internment camp.
This broke me…
“32 individuals inside a cage. It was 81° where we were standing…inside it was probably even hotter. How do I know? Because there was individuals sweating with their shirt off, while they chanted libertad, libertad, libertad.” - State Sen Jones

What we’re seeing at the so-called “Alligator Alcatraz” internment camp is a litmus test, a blueprint for what they want to replicate across the country. I shared what I witnessed on @msnbc.com’s The Weeknight.

Juneteenth tells a simple truth: freedom was never just given—it awas fought for. And that fight didn’t end in 1865.
It lives on in every policy we write, every barrier we break, and every voice we raise. This day isn’t just about history—it’s about responsibility.
✊🏾Honor it. Live it. Be about it.

President Trump’s recent decision to pause all federal grants and loans will have significant impact nationwide, affecting your family and friends. People’s livelihoods will be disrupted. When you play silly games, you win silly prizes. Many are about to get what they voted for!

I thank Senate President Albritton for trusting me to hold the Vice Chair position on the Rules Committee.
The people of Florida deserve results, not partisan games. I look forward to digging in this session and continuing to put families first.
