Securing Our Nation’s Borders

Upon taking office, President Biden went to work repealing successful Trump-era policies to secure and control the border. Biden’s actions sent a clear message to the rest of the world that his administration would not enforce our border laws, thus paving the way for an invasion by nearly ten million illegal immigrants, emboldening drug cartels, terrorists, and human traffickers, and creating a fentanyl crisis which kills tens of thousands of Americans every year.

Refusing to enforce the law and then standing idly by while a dangerous crisis ensues does not constitute a policy difference. It’s reckless endangerment of the American people and is why I have fought to secure our border and hold President Biden and Secretary Mayorkas accountable for their dereliction of duty.

  • Voted for the Secure Border Act of 2023

  • Introduced legislation to repeal the controversial VISA lottery program
  • Earned the top grade from NumbersUSA for efforts in Congress to secure our border – ranked above 98% of other Members of Congress when it comes to border security.

Bill Posey Announces Retirement, Endorses Mike Haridopolos

“It has been the greatest honor of Katie’s and my life to represent you in Congress. And, polls suggest that because of YOUR support, I could remain in the job forever, and we were looking forward to another spirited campaign for a final term in office. However, earlier this week circumstances beyond my control now require me to suspend my re-election campaign.

I will continue to devote all possible resources to continue representing you through the end of my current term, helping President Donald Trump return to the oval office, and supporting former Florida Senate President Mike Haridopolos, in whom I have the greatest trust and confidence, to take up my battles against the swamp and replace me as your Congressman.

There are many people qualified to replace me. Unfortunately, until Mike Haridopolos committed to run, the other declared candidates were not among them.

For many years, Mike has served as my Congressional Finance Committee Chairman, while I have mentored him to replace me. Mike was, and remains, my first choice to represent you, me, and our district in Congress.

Without going into a lot of personal details, stars aligned during the past week and Mike decided he was ready for Congress. I enthusiastically endorse him and will do everything I can to help him get elected.

Mike’s conservative values and work ethic are superior and unlike others who have filed to run against me, Mike has never lied to me or tried to undermine efforts to represent our district. Mike knows our district and has stayed involved at local, state, and federal levels. He is clearly the kind of representative we need in Congress, and I have no doubt he will excel in the job.

May God bless you, and may God continue to bless the United States of America!”
