AFP-FL Announces ‘Five for Florida’ Plan Endorsers Supporters show commitment to limited, accountable and transparent government

BOCA RATON – Americans for Prosperity’s Florida State Director Slade O’Brien announced today that the following candidates and elected officials have endorsed Five for Florida:

“The candidates and elected officials who have endorsed Five for Florida are providing proof that they are dedicated to a better Florida and that they will support the principles of limited government and economic freedom. By endorsing Five for Florida elected officials and candidates are sending a strong signal to Floridians that they are committed to a more economically competitive Florida, to eliminating political cronyism, to expanding educational opportunities for our youth, and to making government more transparent and accountable to its citizens,” said Mr. O’Brien.

He continued, “If the Five for Florida policy agenda is implemented in Tallahassee during the next legislative session Florida will unquestionably become the most attractive State in the nation for families, businesses and entrepreneurs, and that’s is exactly where we want to be.”
