Conservative Businessman and lifelong Republican Bill Conerly Files for House District 72.
Lakewood Ranch, FL– Today, Lifelong Republican, Veteran, and Conservative Engineer Bill Conerly filed for the Florida House of Representatives. Conerly is an engineer by trade and a shareholder with Kimley-Horn, who has deep roots in Manatee County. The Conerly campaign plans to focus on an America First agenda for Florida which includes a renewed focus on securing our borders and prohibiting illegals from receiving taxpayer-funded benefits.
“Florida is at a crossroads. We can continue to kick the can down the road, year after year, on issues like immigration, insurance and our quality of life or we can act. I am running to take quick action, just like President Trump,” Conerly said.
“The politicians in Tallahassee should be on notice: I won’t be making excuses or empty promises on insurance rates, I will be lowering them come hell or highwater. Floridians can’t and shouldn’t be struggling to pay insurance premiums. That must change, starting now,” Conerly said.

“Florida needs to secure its beaches, just like Texas is securing its border with Mexico. Floridians want their local law enforcement to act, as Joe Biden’s federal government sits idly by. Giving local law enforcement the means to deport illegal aliens and cutting off funding for taxpayer programs that benefit illegals are among my top priorities,” Conerly said.
“Finally, we need an engineer in the house to help rebuild and repair our crumbling infrastructure but also reprioritize spending to get Floridians out of traffic,” Conerly said.
