Ben Butler for Congress @BenButlerFL

2 weeks ago

Washington has plenty of politicians. What it needs is more people who have actually built something, produced something, and worked for a living. I'm a dairy farmer, cattle rancher, and 9th-generation Floridian who understands the challenges facing working families because I live them every day. Before sunrise, the cows still need feeding. The fences still need fixing. The bills still need paying. That’s the kind of real-world experience Congress is missing. We need to raise another $10,000 before the end of the week, so if you’re ready to help send a farmer to Congress, please chip in today and help us keep building momentum.

Ben Butler for Congress @BenButlerFL

Today was a special day. I officially qualified to appear on the ballot for Florida’s 9th Congressional District, and I was honored to have my grandmother, Mildred Butler, by my side as I signed the paperwork. At 97 years young, she has seen nearly a century of American history, and she has always been an example of faith, hard work, family, and perseverance. Those values helped shape who I am and why I’m running for Congress. As a ninth-generation Floridian, I understand that we don’t inherit this state from our ancestors—we borrow it from our children and grandchildren. That’s why I’m running: to protect our way of life, strengthen our communities, and ensure the next generation has even greater opportunities than the ones we’ve been blessed with. I’m grateful for my family, grateful for the support we’ve received across District 9, and grateful for the opportunity to earn your vote. Let’s get to work. Let's send a farmer to Congress. 🇺🇸

I’m officially launching my campaign for Congress in Florida’s 9th District. I’m running because Florida needs leaders who understand the real impact government has on us all. I’m ready to get to work. Let’s do this together.

FL's new CD9 is ready for @GovDeSantis sig. I’m seriously considering a run to represent it. I'm grateful for the leadership of @GovRonDeSantis and @POTUS as we continue moving Florida forward. I’ll be listening and learning across the district in the weeks ahead.

LOOK WHAT YOU MADE ME DO! 🐍 Last night I joined a python hunt in the Florida Everglades! Got hands-on with Florida’s invasive species problem. Learned how to wrangle those slithery giants like a pro, joined a heart-pounding hunt under the swamp’s moonlight, & saw up close how these pythons disrupt the ecosystem. Who’s ready to join the hunt?

While the Florida budget passed last night looks to secure our food supply chain and to support the millions of Americans here at home and across the country who’ve dedicated their lives to agriculture, it is an absolute honor to be with thousands of students, advisors, alumni,

I want to thank Shawn Hamilton for his service to our state. I will miss his leadership in Everglades restoration. He has been a strong partner for a strong environment. Look forward to working with Sec. Lambert and keeping our foot on the gas as we continue to make progress.

Without regard to your political scars or stripes, your preferences in any of today’s election contests, or the level of your election analysis fatigue, I hope you emerge feeling GRATEFUL, OPTIMISTIC, and SATISFIED. May it be so.
