Robert Prater on the campaign trail
The Priorities

A StrongerCentral Florida.

Six priorities driving Robert's campaign for Florida House District 37 — grounded in 20+ years of service to Orange County families.

Tallahassee should work for the families of District 37 — not the other way around. These are the fights Robert is running to win for every neighbor across Seminole and Orange counties.

An Affordable Central Florida
Cost of Living

An Affordable Central Florida

Families across District 37 are being squeezed on every side — rising housing costs, sky-high property insurance, tolls that keep climbing, and a tax burden that hits working families hardest. Robert will fight to bring real relief back to Central Florida.

  • Housing affordability and expanding responsible home ownership
  • Property insurance reform — cracking down on carrier abuse
  • Toll relief for daily commuters
  • Tax relief that puts money back in family budgets
Quality Schools for Every Student
Education

Quality Schools for Every Student

As a 20-year Orange County educator, Robert has been in the trenches. He knows what our teachers, students, and parents need — and it's not another one-size-fits-all mandate from Tallahassee. He'll fight for schools that work for families.

  • Real support and competitive pay for teachers
  • Expanded vocational and career-tech pathways
  • Focus on student achievement and literacy
  • Educational choice that empowers parents
Mental Health & Recovery Support
Mental Health

Mental Health & Recovery Support

Mental health is the crisis behind almost every other crisis — from schools to public safety to homelessness. Robert has spent his career walking beside students and families through it, and he'll bring that experience to the Florida House.

  • Expanding access to mental health care
  • Substance abuse prevention and recovery support
  • Stronger family and youth services
  • Coordinated crisis response for our communities
Protecting Our Communities
Community & Growth

Protecting Our Communities

Seminole and Orange aren't just addresses — they're neighborhoods, ranches, parks, lakes and small towns that generations of families call home. Robert will fight to keep this place worth calling home.

  • Defend Orange County's Rural Boundary
  • Environmental and water conservation
  • Smart growth that respects the community
  • Infrastructure that keeps up with growth
Safer Streets. Backed Blue.
Public Safety

Safer Streets. Backed Blue.

Robert has stood alongside law enforcement, firefighters, and EMS for decades. He believes public safety starts with respecting the people who run toward danger, and giving them the tools and training they need to keep us all safe.

  • Back the Blue — real support for law enforcement
  • Fully fund firefighters and EMS
  • Tougher penalties for fentanyl trafficking
  • Safer schools, safer neighborhoods
Family, Faith & Community
Values

Family, Faith & Community

The strongest communities are built on strong families. Robert will stand for the parents, the seniors, the small-business owners and the church volunteers who are the real backbone of District 37.

  • Standing for parents and parental rights
  • Defending family values in law and policy
  • Honoring seniors and veterans
  • Community-first, servant leadership

Stand with Robert for a
Stronger District 37.
