Faith, Family, and the Fight for Florida
The Issues That Matter
Lateresa Jones is committed to fighting for the values that make our families and communities strong.
Public Safety
Every family deserves to feel safe in their neighborhood. Lateresa will fight for strong law enforcement, community policing, and accountability to keep our streets secure.
- Back the blue with full funding and resources for law enforcement
- Combat gun violence with enforcement-first strategies that respect Second Amendment rights
- Crack down on human trafficking and child exploitation with federal task force expansion
- Support community policing programs that build trust between officers and residents
Education & Workforce
Parents know what is best for their children. Lateresa believes in school choice, curriculum transparency, and preparing students for both college and careers.
- Expand school choice so every child has access to quality education regardless of zip code
- Guarantee curriculum transparency and protect parental involvement in education decisions
- Invest in vocational training, trade programs, and apprenticeships for career-ready graduates
- Support teachers with competitive pay and the freedom to teach, not indoctrinate
Housing Affordability
South Florida families are being priced out of their own communities. Lateresa will fight to make homeownership attainable again for working families.
- Reduce regulatory barriers that drive up housing construction costs
- Expand first-time homebuyer assistance and down-payment programs
- Combat corporate bulk-buying of residential properties that inflates prices
- Protect renters from predatory practices while encouraging new housing development
Veterans & Military Families
Those who served our nation deserve our full support when they return home. Lateresa will fight to ensure no veteran is left behind.
- Expand VA healthcare access and reduce wait times for appointments and mental health services
- Combat veteran homelessness with housing-first programs and job placement assistance
- Support military family benefits including childcare, education, and spouse employment
- Strengthen transition programs that help service members build successful civilian careers
Small Business & Economy
Florida families are feeling the squeeze of rising costs. Lateresa will fight for policies that lower costs, create jobs, and let families keep more of what they earn.
- Lower taxes for working families and small businesses to spur job creation
- Cut excessive regulations that stifle entrepreneurship and economic growth
- Fight inflation by reining in reckless government spending
- Promote homeownership and small business ownership as paths to the American Dream
Border Security & Community Safety
A nation without secure borders is not a nation at all. Lateresa supports common-sense immigration reform that is firm, fair, and lawful.
- Secure the southern border with physical barriers, technology, and adequate personnel
- End catch-and-release policies and enforce existing immigration laws
- Support legal immigration pathways that prioritize merit, skills, and family reunification
- Crack down on fentanyl trafficking and cartels that are poisoning American communities
Cultural Exploration Zones
After-school programs protect our children. Cultural Exploration Zones protect who they become. Lateresa will fight for community hubs that give 18-30 year olds aspirational spaces — not just bars and clubs. It extends Grandmas for the Generations upward, from the children we raise to the adults they grow into.
- Entrepreneurship incubation to build the next generation of small business owners, not lifelong employees
- Cultural exploration through arts, music, technology, and civic engagement in every neighborhood
- Mentorship pairing established community leaders with rising young adults ready to contribute
- Financial literacy and digital empowerment to break the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle and build family wealth
"I believe in an America where parents have a say, children are protected, and hardworking families can achieve the American Dream. That's the Florida I'm fighting for."
