Sen. Rick Scott Visits Ft. Myers on ‘Keeping Our Kids Safe Tour’
Last Friday, August 11th, Senator Rick Scott visited Ft. Myers for a roundtable as part of his ‘Keeping Our Kids Safe Tour’ to highlight his legislative priorities and actions to protect Florida kids and families. Throughout last week, Senator Scott also visited Miami, West Palm Beach, DeLand, Fleming Island and Ruskin to hear from families and local leaders about making Washington work to keep families safe and ensure Florida is the best state to work, go to school, visit and raise a family. Senator Scott will continue his tour across the Sunshine State and visit with Floridians in Pensacola and Lecanto.
Senator Rick Scott said, “Parents know what is best for their children and keeping them safe is my top priority. I am thankful for the opportunity to travel to Ft. Myers and hear from parents and their community leaders about what they are most focused on when it comes to raising their families. Unfortunately, the fentanyl crisis continues to rage, AI has started to creep into our kids’ lives, the border is wide open and I hear from parents that they’re constantly worried about their children—it is time to act. That is why I have introduced extensive legislation such as my Upholding the Law at our Border Act to secure the border and ensure all laws regarding immigration are being followed, my RADAR Act to combat the fentanyl crisis, and my School Guardian Act and Luke and Alex School Safety Act to bolster school safety measures. We need to build a world that they are safe to grow up and go to school in, and I am fighting to give parents the comfort of waking up, dropping their kids off at school and feeling reassured that they will return home every single day. We can all agree we must do everything we can to keep our kids safe at school, home and online. We’ve made progress, but I won’t stop fighting until we get this all done.”
