“While the Beltway crowd may not like his style, it’s his record that will become his legacy,” Bush added.
On Monday, DeSantis rolled out another new initiative called the Florida Hometown Heroes Housing Program, which gives public service first responders and teachers financial assistance to purchase their first home....
