I was born in Puerto Rico in 1963. I came to Orlando Florida in 1995 with my wife a suitcase, a Television, and a Nintendo gaming console. I have lived in District 43 for about 6 years now and my family encouraged me to run. I come from a middle-class family and from day to day I see how the economy is getting worse and worse. I believe that I have a strategy to create higher-paying jobs. make the district a leader in the research and manufacturing of biodiesel fuels and other innovations that can help make Florida Fuel independent by 2050. I believe that we need to eliminate old regulations and laws that have been on the books for too long. I believe that we need to pay teachers more money and suspend all application fees for six months to recruit new teachers. parents need more control over their children's education. I am pro-life as my faith, Catholic, dictates I protect life from inception to natural death. I do believe in Statehood for the territory of Puerto Rico and that due to the rich history our great state of Florida and Puerto Rico share. It would make sense to create a strong and lasting relationship with the territory to create jobs not only in Florida but in Puerto Rico too. I am the owner of a small business called Bilingual Broadcasting Network and I know what it takes to defend small businesses.
Small businesses.

Farming.
Parental Rights.
Protection of private property rights.

Creation of a new division of law enforcement to take care of our schools.
