Florida GOP Chairman Evan Power Calls for Immediate Passage of New Congressional Map

Tallahassee, FL – Republican Party of Florida Chairman Evan Power issued the following statement:

“Florida has earned fair representation – and this new congressional map delivers it.”

After being shortchanged in the 2020 Census under the failed leadership of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, and after years of continued population growth driven by Americans fleeing failed blue states, it is long past time for our congressional map to reflect reality.

Republicans now hold a more than 1.5 million voter registration advantage in Florida. And our congressional map should reflect the will of the voters who are shaping the future of this state.

The current map still carries the fingerprints of a court-imposed, Democrat-driven design that distorts representation and ignores the dramatic changes Florida has experienced. That era should be over.

The Republican Party of Florida strongly support this new map and thanks Governor Ron DeSantis for his leadership for bringing it forward. It is fair, it is justified, and it is long overdue.

I call on the Legislature to pass the proposed congressional map without delay. Floridians deserve accurate representation, and there is no justification for keeping an outdated map in place any longer.”
