SALUTE TO HISTORY: December 13 marks the birthday of the U.S. National Guard, founded 389 years ago by the colony of Massachusetts.
Today, the 181st Infantry, 182nd Infantry, 101st Field Artillery, and 101st Engineer Battalion of the Massachusetts Army National Guard carry on the legacy as the oldest units in the U.S. military.
Press team for @GovRonDeSantis out with a statement on @WhiteHouse plan to expand offshore drilling near Florida coast. Statement from @MsMollyBest urging the Department of Interior to reconsider:
Through Florida Forever, DEP has acquired 21,600 acres in Levy County which will expand Goethe State Forest by 39% and permanently protect a vital tract of land in the Florida Wildlife Corridor.
As part of the Waccasassa Watershed Florida Forever Project, the property will:
✔️ Provide new opportunities for public recreation, including hiking, hunting, fishing and wildlife viewing.
✔️ Protect the water quality of the Waccasassa River and Big Bend Seagrasses Aquatic Preserve
✔️ Provide a protected habitat for nesting bald eagles, gopher tortoises and swallow-tailed kites.
✔️ Fill in critical gaps between existing conservation lands.

From preserving our river of grass to protecting parental rights — serving the Sunshine State has been humbling. Onward to sharing new stories with ADELE.
Thank you to those who helped me get here!
It’s a sad day when Gator Nation was disappointed UF won their homecoming game because we knew it would secure the removal of Napier. Now, today is a great day !
Sources: Florida is firing coach Billy Napier. He’s gone 22-23 in four seasons there, and Florida is 3-4 this year. Florida has a bye week before playing Georgia on Nov. 1.
Major announcements today for Hillsborough and Polk County that will bring quick relief & travel reliability along the I-4 corridor.
New express lane in each direction on I-4 to reduce congestion: ✅
Additional Truck Parking to strengthen our supply chain: ✅
Launch a new mode of transportation that will revolutionize air travel: ✅
In addition to announcing that construction has commenced on two R&D AAM vertiports at FDOT’s SunTrax testing facility, @MyFDOT will also be releasing plans for a statewide network of interconnected commercial vertiports.
Congratulations to @DassaultFalcon on the opening of their new facility at the Melbourne Orlando International Airport, bringing 400 new jobs to the area. While in Paris in June, Governor Ron DeSantis met with the company to discuss this win for Florida.
‼️TUNE IN at 4:00PM ET‼️
@GovRonDeSantis, joined by @FDOT_Secretary, will hold a press conference in Bartow. Watch on Governor DeSantis’ X, Rumble, and/or FB.
Today, I had the opportunity to share Florida’s success story with business and community leaders at the Forum Club of the Palm Beaches. We have run surpluses, reduced the state’s legacy debts by 50%, cut taxes, and expanded school choice. The result: Florida’s economy is ranked #1 in the nation for the third consecutive year.
Did you know FL has one of the nation’s largest systems of state-managed wildlife lands?
They’re called Wildlife Management Areas & they contain over 6.1 million acres of quality habitat & wildlife-based recreation!
