AIF Endorses Governor Ron DeSantis in Re-Election Bid

Tallahassee, Fla. – The Associated Industries of Florida (AIF) today announced it has endorsed Republican Governor Ron DeSantis in his re-election bid to continue serving as Governor for the state of Florida.

“AIF is pleased to endorse Governor Ron DeSantis in his re-election bid to continue serving as Governor for the great and free state of Florida,” said AIF President and CEO Brewster Bevis. “Governor DeSantis has been a leader in ensuring that Florida remains a top state in the nation – to do business in, to work in and to live in. From Day One of becoming Governor, he has fought to keep this pro-business state moving forward, something that he will no doubt continue into a second term as Governor.”

In addition to endorsing Governor Ron DeSantis, AIF has also announced its support of CFO Jimmy Patronis in his re-election bid and of Wilton Simpson in his bid to serve as Florida’s Commissioner of Agriculture and Consumer Services.

Known as “The Voice of Florida Business” in the Sunshine State, AIF has represented the principles of prosperity and free enterprise before the three branches of state government since 1920. A voluntary association of diversified businesses, AIF was created to foster an economic climate in Florida conducive to the growth, development, and welfare of industry and business and the people of the state.
