“Joe Strada is a principled man with a refreshing approach to governing. He has built a business and created jobs right here in Central Florida for decades.

Joe Strada will never let us down and has my full endorsement. We need a conservative problem solver to take on the Swamp and stand with President Trump at all costs!”

Representative Nan Cobb, HD 26

Representative Richard Gentry, HD 27

“Florida needs a fighter like Joe Strada in Washington who will stand up to the swamp and stand with President Trump.

Lake County Tax Collector David W. Jordan

“I am proud to endorse Joe Strada for Congress. Central Floridians deserve a conservative champion in Washington who will stand with President Trump and put our families first. For too long, career politicians have put their own ambitions ahead of the needs of the American people.

I am confident Joe will bring the leadership and dedication our community deserves.”
