Rep. Vern Buchanan
@VernBuchanan
Vice Chairman @WaysandMeansGOP. Member @JCTgov. Serving Florida’s 16th Congressional District, including Manatee and Hillsborough Counties.
Seventy-seven million Americans made their voices clear in November. They voted for tax cuts for working families, seniors and small businesses and an economy that works for them. Today, @HouseGOP delivered. The “One Big, Beautiful Bill” is putting America first. 🇺🇸
.@POTUS ended the Tomato Suspension Agreement, stopping unfair Mexican dumping that hurt Florida growers. I am proud to have led the fight to protect Florida jobs and farmers. 🍅🇺🇸 floridapolitics.com/archives/73223…
As a small business owner for 30 years, I know firsthand how hard it is to start and grow a business. That’s why I voted for the Improving Access to Small Business Information Act to cut red tape and make it easier for the SEC’s small business advocate to support Main Street.
Great points, @SBA_Kelly! The “One Big, Beautiful Bill” is a Main Street-first, pro-growth bill. Everyone wins: small businesses, manufacturers and working families. Our bill is strengthening the economy and putting America back on track.
Small nonprofits should have access to the same tools as for-profits to offer retirement plans to their employees. I introduced the Small Nonprofit Retirement Security Act to expand access to retirement plans and help employees secure peace of mind. buchanan.house.gov/2025/7/buchana…
Six months in and America is back. @POTUS has delivered the most secure border in history, record job growth, a strong economy, no taxes on tips or overtime and the “One Big, Beautiful Bill”. Promises made, promises kept. 🇺🇸 whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/…
Florida is winning, and we’re just getting started. 🇺🇸 The “One Big, Beautiful Bill” puts Florida first. In our state, we'll see : ✅ $3,700–$6,800 wage boost ✅ 408,000 jobs protected ✅ No tax on tips or overtime
CMS found 2.8 million individuals improperly enrolled in multiple Medicaid and ACA plans, costing taxpayers $14B annually. The “One Big, Beautiful Bill” cracks down on fraud, strengthens benefits and restores integrity to our health care system. cms.gov/newsroom/press…
Animal cruelty must be met with real consequences. As Co-Chair of the Animal Protection Caucus, I’m proud to cosponsor the Better CARE for Animals Act to crack down on animal abuse and support the @TheJusticeDept’s effort to hold offenders accountable.
An ICE agent was dragged nearly a block by an illegal immigrant evading arrest—just the latest example of violent attacks on law enforcement. Congress must pass my Thin Blue Line Act and send a clear message: assaults on officers will never be tolerated. foxnews.com/us/ice-agent-d…
Great to meet with Steven Williams, CEO of @PepsiCo North America, to discuss nutrition reform. We discussed how the “One Big, Beautiful Bill” includes key provisions that support hardworking Americans and promote healthier communities.
Proud that six of my proposals were included in the @DeptofDefense funding bill to support our troops and ensure our military remains the world’s preeminent fighting force. In the words of General MacArthur, “There is no substitute for victory.” 🇺🇸 buchanan.house.gov/2025/7/u-s-hou…
With nearly 200K seniors in my district, I’m proud to deliver real relief for our senior community. Seniors are being taxed twice on the benefits they’ve earned. Under the “One Big, Beautiful Bill,” 88% of seniors who receive Social Security will pay no taxes on their benefits.
The county is offering a chance tomorrow to pick up sandbags that you may need during hurricane season. Pick up from 10 AM - 7 PM at 2101 47th Terrace E., Bradenton, FL 34203. Prepare now before a storm is on its way. heraldtribune.com/story/news/loc…
The HALT Fentanyl Act has been signed into law! Fentanyl killed over 48,000 Americans in 2024. This legislation mirrors my FIGHT Fentanyl Act and will save lives by classifying fentanyl-related substances as Schedule I drugs to save lives and make our communities safer.
President Donald J. Trump officially signs the HALT Fentanyl Act into law — permanently classifying fentanyl-related substances as a Schedule I drug under the Controlled Substances Act. This bill will save lives.
The “One Big, Beautiful Bill” delivers major wins for small businesses, the backbone of our economy. Our bill ensures: ✅ 100% expensing for equipment ✅ Permanent 20% small business deduction (199A) ✅ Millions of new jobs are created annually
A clear, commonsense framework is essential to drive digital asset innovation. That’s why I supported the GENIUS Act, which stabilizes regulations for dollar-backed stablecoins—promoting transparency, protecting consumers and strengthening the U.S. dollar globally.
It was a pleasure to join @KellieMeyerNews at the #HillNationSummit to discuss tax reform in the “One Big, Beautiful Bill,” trade and the importance of bipartisanship. Grateful to share my perspective on how @HouseGOP is fighting for all Americans. buchanan.house.gov/2025/7/icymi-b…
Small businesses are the backbone of our economy. Before Congress, I built two companies from the ground up. Those experiences drive everything I do in Congress. I will always support small businesses and work to create the same opportunities I once had as an entrepreneur.
Great to join leaders from across the banking industry to discuss tax policy, innovation and driving investment in our economy. I’ve been proud to work alongside Florida’s banking community throughout my career and to champion pro-growth reforms like the “One Big, Beautiful…
