 Good Friday morning.

A top of Sunburn birthday shoutout to our friend, the great, if not downright legendary, Carol Dover of the Florida Restaurant and Lodging Association.

Landon Hoffman is taking over as Florida Citrus Mutual’s director of government affairs on Jan. 9.

Faith Based Events

Hoffman brings experience managing policy and politics on both the federal and state level to the citrus grower group. As the director, he will oversee advancing the policy priorities of Florida citrus growers and navigating the regulatory environment.

Congratulations to Landon Hoffman, soon to bring firsthand legislative experience to the Florida Citrus Mutual.

“Landon Hoffman has been a strong advocate for Florida farmers in the state Capitol, and he brings firsthand experience working for Florida members of Congress in our nation’s Capital,” said Florida Citrus Mutual CEO Matt Joyner.

“With research, new treatments and new disease-tolerant trees, Florida’s iconic citrus industry is on the verge of an upswing. But we need the support of our lawmakers as we recover and rebuild. Florida’s citrus growers are glad to have Landon Hoffman on the team, advocating for our priorities and tackling the challenges that come our way.”

Hoffman comes to Florida Citrus Mutual from the office of U.S. Rep. Neal Dunn, where he served as campaign manager for the Panhandle Republican’s 2022 re-election bid and previously served as his district director, where he oversaw district operations and staffed the Congressman on the House Agriculture Committee, House Energy and Commerce Committee and the House Science, Space and Technology Committee.

“This opportunity to advocate for Florida citrus growers combines my professional experience with my passion for agriculture,” Hoffman said. “I’m excited to be a part of the industry’s comeback.”

—@GovRonDeSantis: Today, I signed legislation that will cut tolls in half for an estimated 1.2 million Florida commuters. This will save commuters $500 million during 2023. Individual commuters can save up to $1,500, depending on the amount of tolls incurred.

—@jeffschweers: We’ve heard the rumors and now here’s the proof. (David) Altmaier is leaving after six years of running the @FLOIR_comm right after the Legislature handed the insurance industry a bill that makes it harder for policyholders to sue over disputed claims.

—@DrewSav: (Ron) DeSantis being the preferred candidate of college-educated Republicans is very funny because his message is decidedly not aimed at that group.
