Question 1

In 2018, Florida Republicans stripped young adults of their right to legally purchase firearms. If elected Governor, would you sign legislation like HB 133 / HB 759 into law, which reduces the minimum age to purchase all firearms from 21 to 18, fully restoring Second Amendment rights to young adult Floridians?

Question 1 Answer(Required)

Yes

Question 2

Following the September 2025 First District Court of Appeal ruling in McDaniels v. State which struck down the open carry ban, Florida became a de facto open carry state. If elected Governor, would you sign legislation to formally codify unrestricted Constitutional Open Carry into the Florida Statutes, ensuring no future anti-gun administration can weaponize the law against gun owners?

Question 2 Answer(Required)

Yes

Question 3

If elected Governor, would you sign Second Amendment Preservation Act (SAPA) legislation, similar to past HB 1205, which prohibits Florida state and local law enforcement from being commandeered to enforce unconstitutional federal gun control laws, executive orders, or unilateral ATF agency "rules," backed by strict civil penalties for violations?

Question 3 Answer(Required)

Yes

Question 4

If elected Governor, would you pledge to veto any and all legislation that seeks to limit the sale, manufacture, importation, or possession of semi-automatic rifles (such as AR-15s), shotguns, handguns, or magazines of any arbitrary capacity?

Question 4 Answer(Required)

Yes

Question 5

While Florida recently expanded school guardians to college campuses via HB 757, ordinary citizens with a Concealed Weapon License (CWL) are still banned from carrying on campus. If elected Governor, would you sign legislation to eliminate restrictions on law-abiding gun owners carrying firearms on public college and university campuses (true Campus Carry), turning these "Criminal Safe Zones" into safe zones for self-defense?

Question 5 Answer(Required)

Yes

Question 6

In 2018, Florida enacted a "Risk Protection Order" (RPO) law (s. 790.401, F.S.) .

Question 6 Answer(Required)

Yes

Question 7

Florida currently maintains one of the strongest preemption laws in the nation (s. 790.33, F.S.), which penalizes local politicians who enact rogue local gun control.

Question 7 Answer(Required)

Yes

Question 8

If elected governor, would you veto legislation that bans private firearm sales or transfers between law-abiding citizens by requiring government background checks, otherwise known as Bloomberg’s “Universal Gun Registration” scheme?

Question 8 Answer(Required)
