A New Generation of Leadership for Tampa

Dan Weldon is a Tampa native who learned early that fighting for what’s right often means taking on powerful people. That instinct followed him to the University of Florida, where he walked on to the football team and played linebacker for the Gators — learning what discipline, loyalty, and toughness really mean.

On campus, Dan stepped into the fight for conservative values. He founded a conservative student organization and built it into one of the largest chapters in the country, then was elected statewide chairman of the College Republicans of Florida with more than two-thirds of the vote. In 2019, he was recognized at the White House for his work defending free speech on college campuses.

He graduated with honors from the University of Florida Levin College of Law, began his career as a prosecutor, and today works as a litigation attorney representing people who are too often outmatched by powerful systems. Dan and his wife, Theresa, live in Tampa.

Where Dan Stands

The Issues

A direct, honest campaign built on real conversations with voters — here’s what Dan is fighting for.

  • 01

    Independence Over Career Politics

    Dan’s generation has watched career politicians promise change and deliver nothing. He believes leadership means independence — telling the truth, challenging the system, and refusing to trade convictions for a seat at the table.

  • 02

    Affordability Is the Breaking Point

    Housing, groceries, insurance, and energy costs are squeezing families and shutting young people out of the life they were promised. Fixing it means standing up to the special interests that profit from higher prices and fewer choices.

  • 03

    A Campaign Built for This Moment

    This campaign won’t run on political theater or talking points. It will be direct, honest, and consistent — built around real conversations with voters, and trust earned by showing up and standing your ground.

  • 04

    Take Back the Ship

    Dan’s vision is simple: put people first by returning power to those who work, build, and raise families here. Government should serve the people, not itself — starting right here in Tampa.

I’m Dan Weldon, and I’m running for Florida’s State House because the American Dream is under attack. For generations, that dream meant something real — if you worked hard and took responsibility for your family, you could build a life you were proud of. To save the American Dream, a new generation must rise.
