A Message from Senator Martinez

Senator Mel Martinez

Greetings,

Welcome to the online home for my offices in Washington and Florida. I hope you will take advantage of all of the resources here to help you learn more about the United States Senate and the government of our great country. I am very proud to be a United States Senator. My father always told me if you worked hard and paid attention to your education, anything was possible. I'm glad I listened to him. Make sure to listen to your parents too!

Maybe you're wondering what my job is like. As a Senator, I spend my week in Washington working on legislation with other lawmakers and trying to help my constituents in Florida. On the weekends, I go back to Florida and meet with folks around the state and see how I can help them. I want to make sure Florida is a great place for people to live, work, and raise their families.

I love the state of Florida. I think it's a great place to live - I know you do too.

I encourage you to visit my office on your next trip to Washington. I love to see fellow Floridians in our nation's capitol. It is a great place to learn about the history of our country and our democracy.

Thank you for visiting my Web site. If you ever have any questions, please write me a letter or send me an email through my Web site and I'll write you a letter back.

Sincerely,

""

Senator Mel Martinez
