U.S. House Florida
Brian Mast
Brian Mast has spent nine years in elected office actively making life harder for his constituents. Since first running for Congress, Mast has been transparent about wanting to rip away health care from millions of Americans. He said he was “committed to repealing and replacing” the Affordable Care Act, which in 2025 provided 4.7 million Floridians with health insurance. In 2025, he voted with Republican leaders to support the “Big Beautiful Bill” to kick roughly 17 million Americans off their health insurance. He later voted to make health insurance more expensive for the millions of Americans who relied on ACA enhanced premium subsidies. The “Big Beautiful Bill” also made the largest SNAP cut in history, which more than 28,500 households in his district relied on to afford groceries. He has admitted to wanting to raise the age of retirement for seniors to collect Social Security benefits and joined the Republican Study Committee, which advocated for raising the retirement age. Mast has even caused controversy in the past after old social media posts resurfaced where he made jokes about sex with underage girls and rape. Ultimately, Mast has been at the forefront of an agenda that has raised costs and taken health care from the people of Florida’s 21st congressional district.
