Issue Position: Israel

Issue Position

Those who know me are familiar with my passion for a safe and secure state of Israel, America's most consistent ally in the Middle East on Democracy and the fight against international terrorism.

In June, the United Nations voted for economic sanctions to encourage Iran from building nuclear arms and missiles that could be used against Israel. But more can be done, and I am firm believer in using our economic arsenal here in Florida.

This spring I sponsored legislation to prohibit Florida's government from creating or renewing contracts with companies that do business with Iran. (HB 743 http://myfloridahouse.com/Sections/Bills/billsdetail.aspx?BillId=43148&SessionId=64)

I will never stop my efforts to hinder Iranian leaders who deny the Holocaust and call for wiping Israel off the map.
