Congressman Scott Franklin, representing Florida’s 18th district since 2021, has shared a series of tweets addressing key issues. The tweets highlight his stance on border security, military infrastructure, and bipartisan legislative efforts.

On March 12, 2025, Congressman Franklin tweeted about border security, emphasizing the importance of law enforcement over legislative measures proposed by Democrats. He stated: "Promises made - Promises kept! And remember when Dems were insisting it was impossible to secure the border unless we passed their immigration bill? We just needed to enforce the law."

Later that day, Franklin discussed discussions in the House Appropriations Committee regarding military infrastructure. In his tweet from March 12, 2025, he wrote: "Yesterday, in @HouseAppropsGOP, we focused on innovative solutions to provide our warfighters with the infrastructure they need to defend our nation. Exploring new technologies to streamline timelines, reduce costs and improve facilities is key to military readiness."

In another tweet posted on March 12, 2025, Franklin expressed gratitude towards colleagues for their collaborative legislative efforts. He acknowledged fellow lawmakers by stating: (2/2) Thank you to co-lead: @RepDarrenSoto and co-sponsors: @RepMariaSalazar, @VernBuchanan, @RepGusBilirakis & @RepRutherfordFL. Thank you to @SenRickScott for introducing the Senate companion with @SenAshleyMoody as an original cosponsor.
