Miami Mayor Francis Suarez announces 2024 presidential bid.

Miami Mayor Francis Suarez has filed paperwork to enter the 2024 presidential race as a Republican candidate. He is the first Hispanic candidate to enter the Republican primary field this cycle. Suarez is running on a record of attracting tech businesses to Florida, reducing crime, and capturing the Hispanic vote. He argues that he can help the party chart a positive path forward and appeal to moderates with his focus on climate change. However, he faces the challenge of running against two Republicans from Florida with far more name recognition: former President Donald Trump and Gov. Ron DeSantis.
