congratulations on the record-setting fund-raising performance. i bring greetings from the free state of florida. [applause] i take credit for the nice warmth and sunshine that i brought with me or him down south today here in new hampshire. we are excited to be here. i'll tell you i was born and raised in florida and will we have seen seen recently as we develop a sense of state pride ourselves. we are proud to have stood up for freedom over these last few years especially when it wasn't easy. we did our own way and we we are proud of that but i must admit we draw inspiration from the people here in new hampshire because more than any other state you don't mince words when it comes to your stance regarding liberty. you say it very clearly, the live free or die. [applause]

with no income tax or no sales tax, you have choice in education.in you have protected students against covid shop mandates. i say when it comes to freedom in new england, new hampshire has no fear, so congratulations on doing what is right. [applause] butt the reality is throughout our country we are engaged in a battle to preserve the cause of liberty. ronald reagan used to say that freedom is only one generation away from distinction. that is not something that's passed along. must be cultivated and it must be protected. and i must say for most of my adult life i appreciated the sentiment. i thought it was a little bit of hyperbole. after all we are americans, right? isn't freedom in our dna?ed i got to tell you i don't thank you could have lived through the

last few years and think that president reagan was wrong. he was right. freedom is fragile. it can be squandered and we are very proud in florida earning the moniker of the free state of florida that was not preordained. .. i got elected governor in 2018 by 32,000 votes out of more than 8 million votes cast. at less than one half of 1% was my margin of victory and to be honest, that was not out of character for florida. the previous decade, if you looked at races, in 2010 and 12 and 16, 18 and yes,. [inaudible]. >> you might have a little

and so if you look at florida's history, the governor's race and presidents race, all one point races and we were swing states, with a very delicate political balance soon is getting ready to take office, people told me listen, this is a divided state, very close election, you didn't want to do anything that will upset the balance andgo maybe tp the scales that impress favor so keep your head down, don't make any waves, just by your time, and kind of late low. and i understood that advice, honestly, i was on crazy advice. but i rejected that advice. [applause] [applause]

>> my view was, and amanda arnold only 50 percent of the vote, but that entitled me to wield the 100 percent ofie the executive power, and i intended to use that to advance the cause of freedom and to advance conservative values in a state of florida and i understood the different leverages the power and i understood, the constitutional power and statutory power and i understood that you had an agenda that you gotta for through a constitutional with a check and balances but we were ready to dt and i also said you know what, when ien take office, i am not doing any polls, to tell me about different issues to this day, i have never taken a single pole as governor about any issues that have dealt with in the state of florida. leaders don't follows follow paul's a fight get ahead in the lead in the deliver results in the polls move in their direction. we also resolve that we were going to have an administration

is appalling in the same direction coming i told people that you can be great as governor making decisions you have ade great vision as an executive, if you don't have a cadre of people of working in your administration, the 20 carry out those policies effectively, and is not going to amount to very much we made very clear, that if you are bringing any other agenda, to this administration, other than what is the best best interest of the people of florida, in the best interest of supporting our cause, and pack your bags right now. the drop under doors right of their they do not have time for drama, i want to make sure that we are executing the agenda read you what is happened of the last four years, we don't have lakes, we don't have,we all we do is gt the job done and done the day we beat the left, day after day and

week after week and month after month and year after year. i also said i'm not going to get to office and be like some republicans where they get in their normal sica potted plant, they do not want to make decisions and they do want to do anything they don't want the media to criticize and they the left again the case in south sometimes, just a back and help the issues do not come to your desk. i said that is not working a boy on offense and i'm going to go going to make sure that i am dealing with any issuing of his son, that i think it can benefit the people of florida and i said at the desk in the governor's office my first day, four and half years ago and i looked around i said i don't know who this office,me in but they're not goinged to have anything to do n in getting allf the meat off the bone i am going to make sure that i am delivering results and here's theng thing, i don't care if the left likes it and i don't care if the media this matter to me, i am pressing forward.

[applause] [applause] i'm also mindful that being a governor, really any executiveor position, that is different than the typical elected office because it requires you to be a leader and you can be good policy, as an executive but if you are not a leader, your ultimately not going too be successful leadershipul is realy having the courage and to make difficult decisions in the teeth of opposition and criticism enemies that you must have the confidence to stand all alone if that's what the situation requires and so when i became governor and we got into the second year, covid-19 hit. i had a make a decision and i just going to go along with the crowd, am i going to subcontract out my office to help bureaucrats army going to take the bull by the form and make difficult decisions knowing i'm going to invite criticism and knowing that i'm going to invite

opposition and indeed, i was criticized during that time, governor in the country bar none but you know, my job is not to try to protect my own political hi, my job was to protect the jobs of the people that i represented in their likelihoods were at stake in their freedom was at stake and i was a guy needed to be there champion. it's hard to make a choice. i'm an old navy guide when you're capping the ship are you going to navigate the boisterous sea of liberty ore are you goig to cower in the docks, and many governors to the latter that we stood for freedom, and florida is better as a result is so that is how we can see the role being a leader and a governor and so fast forward, four years ofgo november of 2022, we do not would by just 32000 those, we won by more than 1.5 million votes we earned.

>> i met. [applause] >> we earned the highest percentage ofgh the vote then ay vrepublican governor candidate has ever received in the history of the state of florida we won 62 percent of hispanic voters, we won independence by 18 percent and we won very populist previously blue miami-dade county, by double digits. [applause] [applause] >> but it's not just about me, i was leaning the tickets that we were part of make sure that we have more people up and down the ballots that they would succeed because of those efforts we now have the largest super majority in the florida legislature than we've ever had we were able to elect, 29 conservative school board members throughout the state of florida when you have school board setting upper parents right inn curriculum transparency. we have for the first time since

the civil war, not a single solitary democrat elected to statewide office in the sunshine state sooner. [applause] [applause] >> when i took office, we had almost 300,000 more democrats register to vote in florida than republicans, and we had never in the history of florida and more registered republicans and imocrats and by the time that rented 2022, we had 300,000 more registered republicans and democrats. but it gets even better, since the election, we continue to dad republicans at a great pace and so even though we were 300,000 up in november of 22, today i stand here before you had there are 455,000 more registered republicans, in the state of florida, then registereda democrats.

[applause] >> so little of the dust settling, there was a headline where the legacy outlets the said this, there is no plan, there is nothing predict florida immigrants, it is fair for the future and that is what you call, winning as republicans. sue met. [applause] [applause] >> now we are proud voters have responded to her leadership and we are proud the people are looking to florida leadership but it's easy to see why, were leading the nation on a whole host of issues and we are number one in the country and have been for many years now and for net in migration and everyone fastest-growing state in the united states and for some florida has been number one since 1957, were number one in new business formations and never wanted tourism and we are number one, and economic freedom and by some measures, because governor say this well-adjusted

florida new have served are the top and were both proud of it. we are number one in education freedom, we are never wanted parental involvement in education, that of public higher education system is ranked number one in america like u.s. news and reports. so we need, not merely with words, but with deeds. politics is nothing to attainment, it is not about building a brand or virtue signaling on social media, ultimately it is about delivering results in a record of florida producing results has been second, to none. our success has shown leadership matters. and the boldness, is rewarded and if i had this into to the people that urge caution, i do not believe that we would what i 1.5 million votes, i think the only reason we were able to do have built such a big majority

is because people saw me willing to lead my conviction come they do not have to wonder where i stood on anyy issue they knew that i was out there fighting for what i believe in but here's the thing and i think what we have done in florida is off of the book to every state in this country. because money comes a vision, when it comes to civil send when it comes to policies, the people, not just in florida but throughout this country, they side with us u on the political left i just they want to see with fiscal and tax policies, they want sanity when it comes to tax they do not want inflationary odysseys they don't arwant crippling debt and they don't want taxation. and we imported like you, have no income tax and you new england neighbors should try it sometime it works out pretty well when youti don't have an income tax. my state of florida has millions of more people now in the state of new york does not some recent change.

and even that we have millions more people, new york state budget has over twice the size of a budget of the state of florida get a roadless are better in our services are better, and education system for and performs better and we doing with all of that money protecting people spending people with with, we have a record budget surplus. last year the budget surplus for florida was $23 billion and that is more than the budget of many states in this country and we have the second lowest per capita debt braided anywhere ina the country and i sure because i have a line item veto power which i think that all governor should have the president of the united states should happen we vetoed 3 percent of the budget, $3.3 billion of wasteful spending that we lined out to make sure that we have a strong surplus. so we are right on fiscal and they are wrongon on fiscal, you see americans have suffered as a resultha of the two into spendig

and that policy. when you print trillions of dollars, when you spend and borrow trillions of dollars, of course you're going to have inflation. of course that was going to happen. that has been a visible tax that is hammered middle-income and working-class people for the entirety of joe biden presidency if youyo want to inflation about hundred votes joe biden out of office. [applause] [applause] >> the people want to see a civil law and order and they reject what happens in life jurisdictions, the right thing and disorder, and we the state ofwe florida, said no to defundg the police and we said no to the blm riots and we make sure that if you right after you lived you engage in violet andr we do not get a slap on the risk i think it would portland community inside of a general cell these

you are held accountable. we also understand that the district attorney's that are getting elected, usually with massive contributions from people like george soros represent a threat to the robot and they will pick and choose which laws to enforce anyone weapon eyes the power of their offices to target people they do not like it, and we had an attorney like that, district attorney in tampa, they have been funded by sorensen said that he would not uphold the laws of thela state, i removed m from his post and he is gone. [applause] [applause] >> the people also stand with us in supporting the concept up our schools are about education, not political indoctrination and we want to have the rights of the parents upheld. we want tot do like we did in

florida, and critical race theory in our k-12 schools we should not be using tax dollars to teacher kids, to hate our country to hate each other, and we also above the nic the education issues through the lens, not just of a governor, but also have a dad we have a six and a five and a three -year-old at home and my wife and i are very concerned about what goes on in the school system and i think parents should be able to syndicate to second grade that them watch cartoons just let them be kids, not having 70s agenda shall better for it is wrong to tell a second-grader, that they were more in her own body and it is wrong to tell students, they can change their gender. and i don't care if disney does not like that, i'm setting up for the truth and standing up for what is right. [applause] [applause]

[background sounds]. >> we also need to have a higher education system that is rooted in the pursuit of truth, academic integrity, and giving students a foundation so that they can think for themselves and be citizens of our republic, not to have the system used for political activism, or p to promote social justice and part of that effort in florida, were to be the first state to eliminate from our state university, so-called der initiatives, they say. [applause] [applause] >> they say that its diversity and equity and inclusion but in rsreality, that's a trojan horse for leftist ideology to be imposed on the student body for the guise of the administration and no, i think that the eye, has a practice more properly stands for, discrimination exclusion and indoctrination and has no part in public institutions and in florida, he

will be history soon. [applause] [applause] >> the people side with us, upholding the rule of law enter national sovereignty and they reject open borders. do you want see with open borders has gotten us, millions and millions of people pouring across the border illegally, record amounts of fencing all the drug cartels are bringing into our country and the media say it when we talk about a you're not a border state fentanyl is every community in this country and we are seeking i'm in florida, and i affixed a source a lot of people, you have mothers, losing kids because there they maybe think about decision but when it's laced with fentanyl, they could die as a result of this and it's all been letting across the southern border because of a biden agenda any of criminal aliens, coming across the border you even have

people that are on the terror watch list, coming across the border i can tell you the, proud that we have been tough on illegal immigration and waveband cities in ourla state. and wee have worked with the coast guard there airtime interjection because the those coming from any other places, trying to come illegally and since august alone, we have reprieved over 11000 illegal aliens back to haiti and back to you about the neck to other the places where they were comingg illegally, and, as much as these issues are very important, there has not been a lot of attention apaid to them by media and certainly by the left, the only time the really got interested in this issue, was when 50 illegal aliens shut up, martha's vineyard the night really got upset about that. [applause] [applause] >> and i believe we need to see

the construction of a wall across the southern border if you really want to deal with the drug issues in the immigration issues and here is what i can say, some of you have property down there and you told me the southwest florida got hit by a major hurricane in september, guinean and did a lot of damage with some of the most stuffing damageth was actually at the branch at thekn pine island severed the dashboard a single island in three different places and these were not see bridges, they were not roads and local officials were telling the residence, would be six-month before you going to be able to go back and forth by land and bridge on the island and a lot e residents came to be in this islands are going to die if it takes six months and can you help us and i said yes, i would help without about it, very and without know we need to bridge together and i said listen, i don't want any bureaucracy unit when any of the red tape no pleadings and no anything, just

build the bridges and we do not have six months and so we took it on a task them with it in pine island bridges that are taking six muscles reopening threee days. [applause] [applause] >> i raised that, i raised that just because these guys are good in florida that we use and i will send them to the southern border to build the wall, come on joe, but as incomes, we will do it and we will get it done. the people off though and also us morning to see an economy businesses focus on their core mission. rather than indulging in woke political activism and what you see happening, and look, some of it is annoying and some of it, there virtue signaling and it's degrading and honestly i think about what is going on here you see bud light is doing all of this stuff some of the stuff i thank you so really insidious and when you look at the movements like yesterday and

environment social governance and what they're trying to do, is are trying to hijack corporate power in order to advance ann ideological agenda and this is an agenda, is hostile to domestic energy production and also the people living in second amendment rights and hostile to traditional conservative americans in many respects and that is bad enough, but it makes it even worse is that they are doing this outside of the traditional constitutional process and are trying to change policy in this country without ever having to put those ideas up for a vote and you know i've been trying to do it that way, because they know if there is never any wayhe that they can wn at the ballot box with this type of an agenda. so in florida, we are outline est intervention investments and we are providing protections for citizens against woke banking. we need to make sure that our economy is not politicizing not

only is that bad for conservative policy, is also bad for optimal economic growth and finally, the people are with us, they want to see constitutional government held as the founders intended to cover they do not want to see a weapon eyes and accountable bureaucracy and president of reagan used to say most terrifying words in the english slangng words or from te government and i am here to help and now, when he said that, it was true that i think the most of the impulse of that government, mismanagement overreach, essential planning run amok and they said that they could in poverty in the 1960s, and they did all of these programs and ended up thinking poverty making it worse than ever so a lot of it was ideology from the book, but also you that i think theou difference between then is weak government wields the power is more sharp and it is targeted i to people the government does not like and don't believe me, just look at the owner remember the irs targeting scanner where they were going after conservative

groups of the obama administration and remember the cms attorney shot mandate of the nurses. these were nurses that were on the frontlines during covid-19 and everybody was saying including me that they work he rose and then the next year rose around and bidens administration through no action of congress, was never legislated this, unilaterally, they impose a a regulation saying the nurses and other healthcare people, you either take the mrna shock, or you lose your job government they can unilaterally prevent you from putting food on the table, is a government that is outside of the traditional constitutionalth structure. when is all the fbi tardy mothers going to school board meetings and virginians of this is a big problem. here's the thing, people are with us on these major issues

the last few years is represented a great test of governing philosophies through outhi our country we saw much different paths and for civil we pursued in florida, the policies pursued by the cities and states has sparked a mass exodus a productive americans from jurisdictions governed by leftist politicians trying to impose a leftist agenda and florida has been the most desired destination for people seeking greener pastures, and we have beend a promised land of sanity, and freedom. no did you just see the chicago mayor results that happened. in the city going down the tubes so they let somebody that's going to put it down the tubes even more are faster than it has already gone and i can tell you this, enables property values are going to be going up in the state of florida. now many of the cities in the states, have elevated ideology

over and during principles. the part of the public safety by coddling criminals and attacking the men and women of on enforcement and they've impose unreasonable burdens on taxpayers, to finance unreasonable levels of public spending predict and they formed education by subordinating the rights of parents and students had a special interest groups into ideological indoctrination and they have impose medical authoritarianism, under the guise of mandates and anrestrictions and none of which were about your health and it is about them being able to control your behavior and so what is motivating this, and this i submit to you, is the woke mind virus in action and walk is a form of cultural marxism seeks to divide us based on identity politics and it represents an attack on merits and achievement and it constitutes a war on

reason and truth and it don't tell me thatrn babies are born racist and tell me and can get pregnant, that is not true and i will not accept it. [applause] >> so we reject broke ideology were not going to allow reality and facts and truth to become optional and we will fight the woke in the schools, we will either woke in the house of the legislature and we will fight the woke inn corporate america, we will never ever surrender to the woke mob in florida, woke goes to die. [applause] [applause] >> now, here is why this is all important and by this debate needs to be resolved properly throughout our country to the left is playing for keeps in this country, if the democrats are able to sleep in 2024, with

the presidency and the senate in the house, they will try to tax the supreme court and they will try to abolish the electoral college and will try to make washington dc, a state so that they can up to that point democrat senators right and they will try to mandate valid harvesting nationwide and they will eliminate all voter id in all 50 states. i now say what you want about that, nine of us support that but that's just in fact is not an agenda that the typical american family are sitting over theal dinner table, talking abot in their talking about inflation, talking about making ends meet in talking about crime and their talking about education and no, that is an agenda, that is not seeking to ido good policy for her countr, that's an agenda that is seeking to render the conservatives out of the country second-class citizens and they do not want us to have a voice generations affairs they want to - themselves in power and so in times likee these, there is no

substitute for victory and ripping up in federal applicant seem to take take a culture of losing that is developed throughout a party in recent years. the time foror he excuses is ov. we must get it done, once and for all read. [applause] [applause] >> and here is the streets truth, the election of 2024 is a referendum on joe biden and his faileden policies, and if weid provided fresh vision for american renewal, republicans will. win the white house, the house and in the u.s. senate so we cannott get this distracted and we cannot afford to lose because freedom is hanging in the balance and no nobody appreciated the fragility of the freedom more than our nations founding fathers when they met in philadelphia in 1787 across the constitution, and they came after having studied the history

of every republican, never existed on god's green earth and they wanted to identify lessons that they could take with them, as they were trying to crack the constitution here for our republic is and what they noticed was that if you look at all of these examples of republics throughout history, there was really only one thing, that every one of them had in common and it was this. every one of them had failed and so they really believed that it fell to the united states of america to determine once and for all, could people really governop themselves, could you have a society based on the idea that our rights come from god, not from government and could you have a government arrested the idea of the rule of law rather than the whims of individual men. or was mankind destined to the various forms and they believed that it was us as americans come that would finally answer that question.

... florida is proof positive tht we the people are not destined for failure. i believe that decline is a choice. i believe success is attainable and i believe freedom is worth fighting for. fighting for freedom is not easy in this day and age, because the threats to freedom are more complex and widespread than they have been in the past. yes the threats can come from bureaucrats and d.c. but even a corporation, but fight for freedom we must. we must embrace our founding creed that our rights come as not a gift from the government by h thelmighty. we must reject the idea that self-government can be subcontracted out to technocratic elites, who reduce our existence to mere data points. we must we must insist on the restoration of timeless constitutional principles so thatns government of by and for the peelnm shall not perish from

the earth. florida has ledle the way in preserving what the father of our country referred to as the sacredth fire of liberty. thes fire that burned the inindependent hall in 1776 when 56 men pled lives and fortune and sacred honor to establish a new nation conceived in liberty. a fire that burned at a cemetery iner gettysburg when our nations first republican president plemged this nation tobl a new birth of freedom. a fire that burned amongst band of brother who is storm beaches of normandy to liberate a continent and preserve freedom for the world it is a fire that burned at the foot of the berlin wall in the 1980s when a resolute president stood before dmiewnist and said tear down this wall. so it is our responsibility to

carry this torch we don't run from this responsibility. we welcome it. but it wongt be easy. leadership is not cause free. the left will come loaded for bare we're all going to have to sacrifice whether you're running for governor or parent going a school board. you're going to face tax you're going face blowback but you know i think about what it will take to turn our country around and effort to do significant pails in comparison throughout our country history when i used to fly up to washington, d.c., therery was one rout that you could take going into reagan airport that was it flush to the right of the national mall. and so if you looked out the left side of the plane you would see beautiful panoramic view of the reflecting pool of the washington monument and then up perched on top of capitol hill, the beautiful u.s. capitol building and you would think to yourself, you know, it makes you

proud to be an american when you see that and you see what that represents and the tourist would love it and look at it. but i figured out after doing that trip that as important as it was to look out at the left side of theas plain the best monument our country has were out the right side of the plain because out the left you look over the potomac river and monuments nice and evenly over arlington national cemetery and it occurred to me i think this is true -- that you could have the best declaration of independence in the world and best constitution in the world, if you don't have people that areon willing to std up, put on a uniform, risk their lives and indeed give that last full measure of devotion for those ideals, they ain't going to amount to very much so we're not called upon to give sacrifices at that level. we're called upon merely to

stand our ground to be firm in thean fight. to be courageous, and to be strong. i am very proud of what we have accomplished in the state of florida but i can tell you this, i have only begun to fight. thank you all. [applause] god bless the great state of new hampshire live free or die. thank you. thank you, thank you very much. congratulations on a very successful dinner. thank you all. you want me to stay up here, right? [inaudible conversations] [applause] i'm going to give a little gift first. [applause] >> that was great. that was great. >> okay thank you all.

governor, thank you for those inspiring words. maybe instead of people moving to florida maybe you could move up here. [laughter] but -- shall return. [laughter] great. just as a small token of appreciation, we have from -- pearl and sons farm he's a state senator i think he's sitting over here somewhere. thankk you howard. great one of our great state senators. put together a gift package of maple syrup products i venture to say the best in new hampshire so we'll give this to your team to take back for you and thank you. > i've got three kids that le waffles and pancakes so -- [inaudible conversations]
