Sen. Rick Scott attended the Florida Sheriffs Association's Winter Conference to express his unwavering support and commitment to law enforcement officers in Florida. He emphasized the importance of their work in keeping families safe and expressed gratitude for their dedication.

"I'm always proud to join our state's brave law enforcement officers and thank them for their incredible work to keep our families safe," said Senator Rick Scott. "Every day, our sheriffs and their deputies are placed in dangerous situations—and we owe them our gratitude for risking their lives to protect our neighborhoods and communities throughout the Sunshine State."

Senator Scott further reiterated his commitment to addressing the pressing issues of drug trafficking and illegal immigration. He emphasized the need to secure the border and stand with law enforcement officers who are at the forefront of safeguarding communities.

"Up in Washington as Florida's U.S. Senator, I'm committed to stopping the flow of deadly drugs and illegal immigration at our border, which means forcing the Biden administration to secure the border and stand with our law enforcement officers who are fighting to keep families safe," Senator Scott asserted.

He also highlighted his determination to advocate for the necessary resources and support for law enforcement officers. He pledged to fight in Congress to ensure that they have everything they need to protect communities.

"I will always stand with Florida's law enforcement and fight in Congress to make sure they have everything they need to protect our communities," Senator Scott stated. "Under the Trump administration, we had a real partner in the White House who cared about our safety, and our country desperately needs that commitment to law enforcement again."

Senator Rick Scott's presence at the Florida Sheriffs Association's Winter Conference and his reaffirmation of support for law enforcement officers underscored his dedication to the safety and well-being of the state's communities.
