About

Elected: 2020 (3rd term)

  • Background: Former financial advisor and state legislator; rising media figure in conservative politics. Freedom Caucus (conservative group within House Republicans) member with significant Fox News presence.
  • Committees: Financial Services, Oversight
  • District: Southwest Florida including Naples, Fort Myers, and wealthy retiree communities.
  • Ukrainian American community: Southwest Florida has a growing Ukrainian American community, including recent wartime arrivals.

Bio Donalds is a media-savvy Freedom Caucus Republican whose public profile gives him outsized influence on conservative Ukraine discourse. Unlike many Freedom Caucus colleagues, he has generally voted for Ukraine aid, creating an opportunity to use him as a counter-voice to isolationists.

Ukraine Record

  • Has voted for Ukraine aid, mixed on recent bills.
  • Has not been vocally opposed to Ukraine aid unlike some Freedom Caucus peers.
  • His Financial Services seat gives him authority over the REPO Act and sanctions.

Advocacy Insight

  • Ask them to: Publicly defend Russia sanctions and the REPO Act as conservative positions. Sign onto the REPO Act (S. 2918 / H.R. 5835), which uses frozen Russian assets to rebuild Ukraine.
  • Why it works with them: Freedom Caucus credibility as a counter-voice to isolationists. Fiscal conservatism paired with making Russia pay through seized assets. Anti-authoritarian hard power.
  • Your connection: Southwest Florida Ukrainian community, especially recent war refugees. Wealthy retirees in Naples and Fort Myers who follow national security closely.
  • Avoid: Assuming Freedom Caucus uniformity. Engage him as an individual who has broken from the isolationist wing on this issue.

Without this bill, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who fled the war and built lives in the U.S. face deportation back to an active war zone. This is the single most urgent protection for Ukrainians in America.

Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], a constituent from [YOUR CITY/ZIP].

I'm calling to urge Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] to cosponsor H.R. 3104, the Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025.

Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians fled Russia's invasion and are now living in the U.S. on temporary status. They cannot safely return to an active war zone. H.R. 3104 gives them a path to permanent residency. It's bipartisan, it's targeted, and it's the right thing to do.

Will Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] cosponsor H.R. 3104?

Thank you.
