About Thomas Witkop

Candidate for Congress in Florida's 21st District

Why i'm running

I am taking on the establishment. I have refused all donations from national political parties and corporations. We need our leaders to represent the voters of the Treasure Coast, not special interests.

Development is destroying our state. My opponent, Brian Mast, has taken almost a million dollars from developers, including the Jack Nicklaus family. I hunt wild boar, spearfish for snapper, and birdwatch for the Scrub Jay. I believe we need to protect the real Florida. I have been endorsed by the Sierra Club and pledge to support legislation that protects our coastline and natural resources for generations to come.

I am a renter and I worry that I will never be able to afford a home. We need to take on the affordability crisis, and that starts with lowering home insurance. Home insurance has increased by 300% since Brian Mast took office, and it’s making it difficult for people like me to afford rent and save for a home.

I live in Florida with my fiancée, who teaches at a public high school. Before running for office, I worked at a Neighborhood Resource Center in Jupiter that helps people find jobs. I believe in hard work and the American Dream. If we can help people find good high-paying jobs and provide for their family, we can rebuild our country.

I’m running for office to stop developers, defend freedom, and make life affordable again.
