“One clearly stands out” Proud to earn the endorsement of the Palm Beach Post Editorial Board. I grew up reading the Post and would read these endorsements while stationed all around the world, so this one is extra special.
James Martin for Congress
@jamesmartinforfl.bsky.social
Fourth generation Floridian, dad, husband, national security expert, and proud U.S. Coast Guard veteran. Democrat running to flip FL-21.
I know what Real Threats look like. Up on all the screens you use today 🇺🇸
I am honored that Vice President Kamala Harris has endorsed my campaign for Congress and our movement to bring real leadership to the Treasure Coast and this great country.
Happy Birthday to the @usarmy.bsky.social ! My family has served in the U.S. Army since it was the Continental Army in the War for Independence and I’m proud to have served with soldiers all over the world.
Since the Callais ruling, southern legislatures are racing to draw maps designed to strip Black Americans of their political power — and the path forward is murky while lawsuits run their course.
Where did the Money Go? As Palm Beach County Public School teachers fight for a livable wage—it’s important to look at how Washington sold them down the river. As the son of a public school teacher, you will find no greater advocate for public education than me in the halls of Congress.
The Refund Con Brian Mast traded your healthcare for a headline so he can tout bigger tax refunds ahead of election season. The problem? He didn’t tell you what he charged you for it.
Proud to be joining End Citizens United’s “Unrig Washington” campaign, which calls for banning Congressional stock trading, refusing corporate PAC money, and cracking down on dark money. Until we get big money out of our politics, we can’t make tackle the “big ideas” this moment demands.
Public events for April! Can’t wait to meet you and share my vision for bringing real leadership to this district and this great country. Note: please reach out for any private events scheduled in your area.
MeidasTouch contributor Bobby Jones speaks with congressional candidate and Coast Guard veteran James Martin, who warns the U.S. has “no plan, no strategy” in the Iran conflict, calling it unacceptable to send troops into harm’s way like this.
Always great to spend time with my friends at FL Alliance for Retired Americans to share my vision to bring real leadership to this great country The elderly, the disabled, and our children don’t have a lobbyist I’m running to make sure the little guys of society have real representation in DC
🐊 Florida Woman Friday🐊 A love of the water and wild Florida is a family affair! Grateful to have a partner who likes being outside as much as I do! These aren’t just campaign slogans for us, they’re a way of life. I’m prepared to go all the way to Washington to defend them for my family and yours
Throwback to one of the many international trips I helped plan and execute for Vice President Harris—here I am somewhere over Tokyo, Japan! These trips strengthened U.S. alliances and advanced diplomacy that made Americans safer and more prosperous.
Do. Your. Job. In the war of choice in Iran, Americans are dying, gas prices are up, and there is no plan. But, Brian Mast won’t do his job as chair of the foreign affairs committee to hold hearings and ask the tough questions Americans deserve answers to.
I’m proud to be an American every day, but on St. Patrick’s day, I’m proud to honor my Irish heritage. A culture that gave the world its poets, its rebels, its union organizers, and its civil rights voices, the Irish have always stood up for the little guy and up to the bold deceivers of the world
🐊 Florida Man Friday 🐊 Some folks discover wild Florida when they run for office—I never left!
Running for office isn’t the first time I worked the phones! I grew up around my family’s business. I know firsthand how hard small business owners work for their families and their community. I’ll always be a fighter for them in Washington.
10 Days In. What’s the plan? Doesn’t seem like there is one and that’s the problem.
Time and place to be critical of this Admin and DOD, but this probably isn’t one. I’ve been the recipient of many “steak and lobster” meals myself—which signal a deployment is getting extended.
$6.9 million of lobster tail in a month????? What would you even do with that much lobster
Here’s to strong women. May we know them, may we be them, may we raise them. Happy International Women’s Day to the strong women who shaped us, served beside us, and inspire us every day.
Reflecting on my time serving in the Middle East. Thinking of all of our service members serving in harms way.
This morning my thoughts are with the six fallen service members and their families.
My statement on the U.S. military operations in Iran.
In the Coast Guard, command comes with absolute responsibility—for your crew, your mission, and your ship No excuses, no passing the buck. That’s the standard I carried as a commanding officer, and it’s exactly the standard I’ll bring to Congress. FL-21 deserves a rep who owns the outcome
Today marks the four year anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Critical to remember that helping Ukraine is in the United States’ strategic interest—but Brian Mast doesn’t think so. We need leaders in Congress who understand the stakes and won’t abdicate America’s role in the world.
Something is in the water! This movement to bring real leadership to the Treasure Coast and this great country is powered by friends, neighbors, and regular folks and they’re all hungry for change!
Hard to overstate Reverend Jackson’s legacy A trailblazer, a civil rights giant, and in many ways one of the principal architects of modern Democratic politics. More importantly, he was a man of deep faith who dedicated his life to lifting up the voiceless Thinking of his family today
The SAVE Act is a solution in search of a problem. I’m running for Congress to pass laws that makes Americans lives better and safer, not to make it more difficult for millions of Americans to vote on a flimsy pretext.
Data Center Blues Just came from the largest of the proposed data centers in our Congressional District. I did not like what I saw You need to be calling Mast’s office to ask why he is okay with 3 of these data centers ruining our environment and flouting bedrock federal environmental laws
