Tim for the Villages
TIM WILKINS
FLORIDA FIRST. AMERICA FIRST
Back the Blue, Reform the Bench
Our law enforcement puts their lives on the line every single day. The least Washington can do is stop letting activist judges put violent criminals back on the street with 99 prior offenses. I'll fight for the badge and for accountability on the bench.
Keep Florida Growing
Florida's farmers and ranchers are fighting greening, canker, rising fuel costs, and suffocating regulation — all while feeding America. I've seen it firsthand. They need a fighter in Washington, not another suit who's never set foot on a farm.
One Price for Every Prescription
Why does the same pill cost $6 for one person and $600 for another? Our seniors on fixed incomes shouldn't have to choose between medicine and meals. I'll fight for one fair price — full stop.
Make Healthcare Affordable Again
Premiums skyrocketed. Doctors disappeared. And Congress did nothing. I co-founded a school and ran a business — I know what crushing healthcare costs do to families and employers. Real reform starts now. I will lead the charge to repeal and replace ObamaCare once and for all.
Close the Border and Lower the Cost of Living
An open border isn't just a security crisis — it's an economic one. Illegal immigration drives up your rent, your groceries, and your tax bill. I'll fight to keep the border closed and put American families first.
Cut Taxes, Grow the Economy
Washington keeps promising raises while quietly taking more out of your paycheck. I'll cut waste, fraud, and abuse to deliver a real 3–5% tax reduction — because keeping more of what you earn beats any government handout.
Parents Over Politicians
No school should have more say over your child than you do. I co-founded a school serving 160+ students built on strong values, real academics, and parental involvement. DEI indoctrination and political agendas have no place in our classrooms.
Honor Every Oath, Serve Every Veteran
I enlisted at 17. I've performed for troops in Afghanistan. I've spent 30 years supporting veterans' charities. These men and women gave everything — we owe them more than a wait list and a broken system.
WHY I'M RUNNING
CONSERVATIVE RESULTS FOR CENTRAL FLORIDA
The Villages has always held a
special place in my heart.
Long before I ever considered running for Congress, I spent time here visiting my uncle, who helped build part of this incredible community by wallpapering many of the recreation centers you enjoy today. He was so proud and challenged me every time - “I bet you can’t find a seam or a wallplate.” Every visit was memorable because The Villages has always been about more than beautiful neighborhoods—it has been about the people.
Today, my wife Amber and I are blessed to call so many Villagers our friends. We've shared meals, attended events, prayed together, laughed together, and heard your stories. This community isn't just another stop on the campaign trail. It's personal to us. That's one of the reasons I'm asking for your vote.
For the first time in 16 years, Republicans in Florida's 11th Congressional District have the opportunity to choose a new conservative representative in Congress—someone who brings the energy to fight, the vision to lead, the ability to communicate our values, and the real-world experience to get results. As a Marine, professional communicator, businessman, and lifelong conservative who actually lives in our district, I understand the challenges our families and seniors face because they're my challenges too.
This is an important decision—not only for our district, but for the future of our country.
The election on Tuesday, August 18 is one of the most important in our district's history. It won't just determine the Republican nominee—it will determine who represents us in Congress. In our strongly Republican district, the primary is the election that will decide our next Congressman.
That's why I encourage every eligible Republican to make your voice heard by voting in the primary.
I say "us" because I'm not just asking to represent this district—I'm proud to live here. In fact, I am the only candidate who actually lives in Florida's 11th Congressional District. This community is my home, and I will always put the people of our district first. We don’t need anyone “District shopping” or any more “career politicians.”
I hope you'll come, ask questions, and decide for yourself who has the experience, character, and conservative principles to represent you in Washington.
As your Congressman, I will fight to protect the promises made to America's seniors.
Protect Social Security
You paid into Social Security throughout your working life. Those benefits are a promise—not an entitlement—it’s your money! I will work to protect them for current retirees and future generations while fighting fraud, waste, and reckless spending that threaten their long-term future.
Protect Medicare and Improve Healthcare
Washington should be focused on lowering healthcare costs, increasing access to quality care, and ensuring seniors have the freedom to choose their doctors and treatment options. I'll work to reduce unnecessary government bureaucracy, increase transparency, and pursue policies that make healthcare more affordable.
Protect Your Freedom and Your Retirement
After a lifetime of hard work, you deserve to enjoy retirement with peace of mind. I'll fight to strengthen our economy, protect your retirement savings, defend your constitutional freedoms, and preserve the American values that made this country the greatest nation ever.
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter. Amber and I look forward to seeing many of you soon, and I would be honored to earn your vote on August 18.
God bless you, God bless The Villages, and God bless the United States of America!
