Voter guide

Background, stated goals, record, and money

Goals come from the campaign's own platform. Record lines are official actions.

How this guide is built

Background comes from official records, and from the campaign's own biography where the bullet says so; goals are summarized from the campaign's own platform and stay attributed; the record lines are official actions with the government source attached; money is shown as filed, with the filings it covers in the note under the table, and is not evidence of why any position was taken.

Mike Beltran

Background

  • Served in the Florida House from November 2018 to November 2024, first for District 57 and then District 70, both in the Tampa Bay area.
  • An attorney with degrees from the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard Law School, the Florida House records.
  • His campaign says he grew up in Brooklyn and lives in southeast Hillsborough with his wife and two sons.

What they say they want to do

  • Cut federal spending he says drives prices up, and keep taxes low.
  • Make it easier to open clinics and use telehealth.
  • Require local approval for data centers, and a guarantee they won't raise power bills.
  • Ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks.
  • Finish the border wall and pass the SAVE America Act.

What the official record shows

  • Voted Y as the House passed the hospital licensure bill that ended certificate-of-need review for general hospitals, 81-34.
  • Voted Y on carrying a concealed handgun without a license, which passed 76-32 and became law.
  • Voted Y on the 2023 tax package, which passed 112-0; staff put its first-year cost at $1.16 billion.
  • Cast the only No vote as the House passed the Senate's health care access package, 117-1.
  • A surrendered-infants bill he co-introduced became law, chapter 2024-213.

Campaign money from other committees, by type

No table, because his filings through July 29, 2026 show no money from political committees. Lines 11B, 11C and 12 are all zero. Most of his money is a $2,014,000 loan from himself.

What they say

His campaign says he helped deliver the largest tax cut in Florida history, and tax holidays on gas and everyday purchases.

“helped deliver the largest tax cut in Florida history”

What the record shows ·

He voted Y on all three yearly tax packages of his last three years. The 2022 package, passed 107-0, created a one-month gas tax holiday for October 2022. The 2023 package, passed 112-0, carried sales tax holidays and a first-year cost of $1.16 billion. The 2024 package passed 110-0, and it includes word for word a change from his own 2024 tax bill: voters must approve the county indigent care surtax.

Limit: He was not the sponsor of the three packages, which passed with no votes against, and his own tax bill died in committee. Whether 2023's was the largest tax cut in state history is not tested here.

Matches stated direction

What they say

His campaign says he broke up health care bureaucracies that blocked new clinics from opening, and expanded telehealth access.

What the record shows ·

He voted for 2019 laws ending certificate-of-need review for hospitals and expanding telehealth, but cast the only No on two 2024 Senate health care bills.

“Mike broke up healthcare bureaucracies that blocked new clinics from opening and expanded telehealth access”

What the record shows ·

In 2019 he voted Y on the bill that ended certificate-of-need review for general hospitals, 81-34, and on the telehealth law, 113-0. In 2024 he cast the only No vote, 117-1, on the Senate's health care access package, which funded loan repayment and residencies, set rules for advanced birth centers and joined Florida to the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact. The same day he was the only No on a second Senate health bill, for health care innovation loans.

Limit: He voted for both 2019 laws but did not sponsor them. The 2019 repeal covered hospitals, not clinics. His 2024 No votes cut the other way, and no recorded reason for them was found.

Limit: Four votes on two days are shown; this desk did not count every vote he broke with his party. No recorded reason for his two 2024 No votes was found, and whether his party was wrong is his judgment.

Gun rights

Matches stated direction

What they say

His campaign says he has a perfect pro-gun record: no red flag laws, no magazine bans, no compromise.

“Mike has a perfect pro-gun record. No red flag laws, no magazine bans, no compromise.”

What the record shows ·

He voted Y in 2023 on carrying a concealed handgun without a license, which passed 76-32 and became law. In 2024 he co-introduced two gun bills that passed the House with his vote and died in the Senate: one lowering the age to buy a gun, 76-35, and one ending automatic gun limits during emergencies, 86-23. He also filed his own bill to allow open carry and delete Florida's emergency red flag orders; it died in subcommittee.

Limit: "Perfect" is a rating claim; this desk did not read every gun vote of his six years. None of his 2024 gun bills became law.

Mike Beltran

Abortion limits

Matches stated direction

What they say

His campaign says he has always fought to protect life.

What the record shows ·

He co-introduced and voted for Florida's 15-week and six-week abortion limits, and was second sponsor of a 2024 bill allowing abortion only to save a woman's life, which died.

“Mike has always fought to protect life.”

What the record shows ·

He co-introduced the 15-week limit in 2022 and the House version of the six-week limit in 2023, and voted Y on both laws, 78-39 and 70-40. In 2024 he co-introduced the law creating a state pregnancy and parenting resources website, and was second sponsor of a bill to bar abortion except to save a woman's life. That bill died in subcommittee.

Limit: The 2024 abortion bill did not pass.

No assessment

What they say

His platform says states should set their own abortion policies, including exceptions for rape, incest and the life of the mother.

What the record shows ·

He voted against adding rape and incest exceptions in 2022, voted for the 2023 law that has them, and in 2024 was second sponsor of a bill allowing abortion only to save a woman's life.

“should set their own policies that include exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother”

What the record shows ·

In 2022 he co-introduced the 15-week law, which has no rape or incest exception, and voted No on two failed amendments to add one, 38-74 and 37-74. In 2023 he co-introduced the House's six-week bill, which allows abortion for rape or incest up to 15 weeks, voted for the Senate version that became law, and was the only Republican to vote for an amendment letting a woman's sworn statement prove rape or incest. In 2024 he was second sponsor of HB 1519, which allows abortion only to save the woman's life.

Why there is no assessment here

The record points both ways. His 2022 votes and his 2024 bill went against rape and incest exceptions; his 2023 bill and votes went for them.

Limit: His campaign does not say when he came to this view. HB 1519 never got a vote.

In 2023 he voted for a law that voids some out-of-state licenses held by unauthorized immigrants and has some hospitals collect patients' immigration status, 83-36.

Limit: These were state laws. A state lawmaker has no vote on the border wall or deportations.
