House District 116

Mallea Endorsed by Associated Builders and Contractors

Posted on June 9, 2017

The construction industry trade group says Mallea’s support for free market
principles makes him the best choice in the race for House District 116.

The Jose Mallea Campaign today announced the endorsement of Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) of Florida, part of a national construction industry trade association that represents nearly 21,000 corporate members. Mallea is running in the special election to fill the District 116 seat in the Florida House of Representatives.
“We are very pleased to endorse Jose Mallea,” said Peter M. Dyga, President and CEO of the ABC Florida East Coast Chapter. “His commitment to the principles of free enterprise and free markets lines up very well with our values. We believe we can count on him to be the kind of advocate for economic growth and increased opportunity we need in Tallahassee.”
ABC represents every segment of commercial construction from general contractors to subcontractors and suppliers. The association promotes lower taxes, free enterprise, reasonable regulation, and is the largest provider in Florida for training in the industry. The Florida East Coast Chapter represents more than 450 member companies between Key West and the Space Coast region, making it the largest commercial construction association in Florida.
“I am honored to have the support of ABC,” said Mallea. “I appreciate their commitment to the principles of freedom and hard work that built this nation. I look forward to working with them to keep Florida’s economy strong and growing.”

Mallea Pre-Qualifies by Petition for House District 116

Posted on May 31, 2017

The Republican will run in the special election to replace Jose Felix Diaz

The Jose Mallea Campaign today announced that he has pre-qualified by petition to run in the special election for House District 116. Mallea, a Republican, originally planned to run for the seat in 2018, but will run in the special election this year to replace Jose Felix Diaz, who resigned to run for the Senate. With his petitions already verified, he will officially qualify during the qualifying period for the race June 5 and 6.
“Our campaign’s momentum is strong, and I am so encouraged by the support we are receiving all around the district,” said Mallea. “I plan to keep working hard to get our conservative message out, and I look forward to meeting and speaking with as many voters as I can.”
Mallea has been endorsed by a number of prominent South Florida Republicans, including former Governor Jeb Bush, Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, and Congressman Carlos Curbelo.
The special primary election will be Tuesday, July 25, with the general election following on Tuesday, September 26.
