Our annual Back the Blue BBQ is an opportunity for Kathy and I to thank Florida’s Sheriffs, FDLE and our Ag Law Team for all they do to keep our state safe. It’s hard to imagine a group of men and women more dedicated to serving the people of Florida.

Today, our community will have more opportunities for research, education, high wage jobs. It was an honor to be at the opening of the Science and Innovation Center at PHSC, especially as an alum and a resident of this area for most of my life. I look forward to the great things that are in store for our students and families.

As a farmer himself, Wilton understands the challenges Florida’s agriculture community faces and stands shoulder to shoulder with producers to address them head-on. His proven track record, from protecting farmland through the Rural and Family Lands Protection Program, to championing the honest labeling of real milk products and protecting Florida livestock and the state’s food supply, shows he’s equipped to help Florida dairy and agriculture thrive in the years to come.”
