Margaret “Maggie” Chase Smith once said “moral cowardice that keeps us from speaking our minds is as dangerous to this country as irresponsible talk.” The landscape in politics is increasingly lacking in civil discourse, often keeping many quiet. How are you speaking up?

Thank you, FloridaPolitics, for covering the Maggie's List event we held last week in Tallahassee, Florida! It was great to be able to connect with many of our friends and allies, including former Senate President Kathleen Passidomo and state Rep. Jennifer Houghton Canady. And it was wonderful seeing our endorsed candidates including now-US Attorney General Pam Bondi, U.S. Sen. Ashley Moody, US Ambassador to the United Nations Elise Stefanik, U.S. Secretary of Labor nominee Lori Chavez-DeRemer and SBA Administrator nominee Kelly Loeffler.

This week, Maggie’s List Congressional Partner, U.S. Senator Deb Fischer (Neb.), a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, led her colleagues in reintroducing the Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act of 2025. Senator Fischer’s legislation is the only permanent, nationwide solution to unleash the power of year-round E15—fulfilling President Trump’s mandate for energy independence. By allowing the year-round, nationwide sale of E15, this legislation will finally end years of patchwork regulations and give both producers and consumers the certainty they deserve. Securing this permanent fix, coupled with Senator Fischer's work with the administration to ensure strong renewable volume obligations (RVOs), will enable biofuels to contribute to our nation's energy dominance.

Maggie's List congratulates one of our greatest statewide endorsed candidates on her new job as President of Florida International University. Lieutenant Governor Jeanette Nunez has done a fantastic job for the Great State of Florida.

The Senate has voted to confirm Pam Bondi to serve as attorney general, elevating a longtime defender of President Trump to lead the Justice Department and oversee the more than 100,000 who work for it and its component agencies — including the FBI. https://lnkd.in/dpeRYVRY
