Miami Mayor Francis Suarez Joins Crowded GOP Presidential Race for 2024.

Miami Mayor Francis Suarez has filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission to enter the 2024 presidential race as a Republican candidate. He plans to formally announce his candidacy on Thursday during a speech at the Reagan Library. Suarez, who is Cuban American, will be the only Latino GOP candidate in the growing 2024 field. He is the president of the bipartisan U.S. Conference of Mayors and is the 11th Republican presidential candidate in the race. Suarez believes climate change must be addressed and has been trying to turn Miami into a crypto hub and the next Silicon Valley.
