Florida Senator Rick Scott was honored with the “Pioneers for Prosperity” award.
According to Americans for Prosperity, the award honors distinguished lawmakers who were policy champions during the 118th Congress. According to AFP, these leaders are on the frontlines in Congress advancing principles and policies that drive the conservative movement, while proactively opposing harmful ideas that grow the size of government and take money out of taxpayers’ paychecks.
The “Pioneers for Prosperity” stood firm against what they labeled ill-advised legislation that would have deepened the hardships felt by working families and worked closely with AFP in Washington as well as with grassroots communities in their home states.
“I’m proud to be recognized by Americans for Prosperity, a great organization that advocates for the success of our nation’s families and businesses,” Republican Senator Rick Scott said. “For too long, families have seen their tax dollars wasted as they struggle to make ends meet under the Biden-Harris administration’s big government, big spending and inflation-fueling policies. I’m fighting every day to keep the American dream alive by bringing fiscal sanity and common sense back to Washington so it truly works for the American people.”
U.S. Representatives Byron Donalds and Laurel Lee were also honored as “Pioneers for Prosperity.”
Lawmakers earned recognition for supporting bills such as the Employee Rights Act, Strategic Production Response Act, Lower Energy Costs Act, Health Care Fairness for All Act, and other pieces of legislation that the groups said offer common-sense solutions that would improve Americans’ lives – although Democrats would disagree.
“Florida is fortunate to have leaders in Washington who stand for policies that put hardworking Americans first,” AFP-FL State Legislative Affairs Director Chris Stranburg said. “We are thankful for these individuals who have voted for sensible reforms to keep our economy strong and government limited. Next year, we look forward to overcoming fiscal deadlines with the help of their voices.”
AFP-FL recently met with congressional members in Washington to discuss major tax policies, including the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, that are set to expire at the end of 2025 which are commonly referred to as the “fiscal cliff.”
