U.S. Senator Rick Scott today endorsed Wilton Simpson for Commissioner of Agriculture. Simpson is also endorsed by 61 Florida Sheriffs, Florida FarmPAC (the political action committee for the Florida Farm Bureau Federation), The Associated Industries of Florida, Senator Ashley Moody and President Donald J. Trump.
“Wilton Simpson and I have worked together for many years and his proven commitment to Florida’s families is evident in his track record of fighting for a stronger economy, safer communities and education opportunities for our students,” said Senator Scott. “As a farmer, he knows first hand how critical it is that we protect our precious natural resources for future generations of Floridians, and to ensure a safe food supply. Because of the work we achieved together that began over a decade ago when I was Governor and he was in the Florida Senate, Florida is the envy of the nation. I am proud to endorse Wilton Simpson for Agriculture Commissioner because Floridians deserve leaders who will put them first.”
