Congressman Byron Donalds

On January 4, 2025, my bill, HR 5103 – "The FISHES Act" was signed into law by the President.

HR 5103 expedites the delivery of much-needed fishery disaster relief to coastal communities.

Today, we received the pen & signed copy of this monumental win for the people of Florida.

A few years ago, I was proud to nominate Charles “Charlie” Ferrante from Southwest Florida to attend @WestPoint_USMA.

Today I learned that Charlie has received the Lt. Gen. Harold "Hal" G. Moore Warrior Athlete of Excellence Award — this means he is the number one cadet at West Point.

Floridian excellence on full display. Congratulations to Charlie and his family, and thank you for your service!

A major Victory for the Sunshine State.

The Trump administration and CMS are delivering real, measurable results for Florida.

This historic $193 million investment modernizes our rural infrastructure, empowers local healthcare providers, and ensures top-tier medical care is accessible in every corner of our state.

The United States Space Academy belongs right here in Florida.

For generations, the Space Coast has been America’s gateway to the stars.

Our Florida Delegation stands completely united, and we are ready to work with the administration, the presidential commission, and our colleagues in Congress to deliver this vital mission.

Thank you to all who attended today’s event, and an extra-special thank you to our event host site, @blueorigin. Let’s get to work!

I am proud to stand alongside @SenAshleyMoody in leading the House companion to the STARS Act.

Establishing the Space Academy on Florida's Space Coast creates an unmatched competitive advantage—giving cadets daily exposure to NASA, the U.S. Space Force, and private industry.

To equip the next generation of aerospace leaders, the academy must be located where the action is.

America leads. Florida launches.
