Michael Carbonara is running for Congress to put families and communities back at the center of American life. With rising crime, unaffordable healthcare, and failing schools, Michael is stepping away from his business career to protect what matters most: your children, neighborhoods, and future.
Who Is Michael? Crime and Safety Congressional Candidate
Michael is a serial entrepreneur and innovator who has founded and managed successful companies in fintech, cryptocurrency, genomics, and sports media. However, he believes so strongly in the need for change that he is stepping away from those ventures to become the Republican candidate for the 2026 mid-term elections against incumbent Democrat Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
Michael’s experience comes from innovation, management, leading many companies accurately and expediently, and applying knowledge and ability to get things done. His experience as a founder gives him firsthand insight into economic issues and expertise in understanding the market and what people want or need. To this end, Michael is a Washington outsider and not a career politician.
Community Safety Comes First
Above all else, Michael is a family man first and foremost, intent on creating a safer, more secure community for his family and yours. Years ago, his family fled the tyranny of Cuba to find freedom and an opportunity to pursue the American dream. Since then, however, Michael feels he has been watching those freedoms be eroded. Taxes and living costs have increased, while healthcare, education, and quality of life have decreased.
Michael says, “We need a return of common sense. We need to restore our freedoms, our safety, and our prosperity. Now, I have children of my own, I want to step away from my businesses and focus on restoring the freedoms and opportunities in this country for my children and all Americans.”
As such, Michael advocates for increased support and funding for local law enforcement and crime prevention policies that protect families while respecting civil liberties.
Family-Focused Policies
As a family man himself, Michael supports parental rights in education, school choice, and restoring academic excellence.
Furthermore, he proposes lowering healthcare costs and expanding local health access for families, children, and seniors.
In addition to these beneficial policies, Michael is pledging to cut inflationary spending, reduce federal taxes, and support the creation of small businesses in South Florida.
He also supports expanding childcare tax credits and reducing regulatory burdens on local employers.
Local Roots, Global Vision
Though Michael has built companies with global reach, he’s deeply connected to the needs of his district.
He says, “I’ve built companies all over the world, but I’ve never lost sight of what matters most, my family and my home. I’m running to make South Florida safer, stronger, and more affordable for every parent, every child, and every neighbor.”
What truly sets Michael apart from his competitors is his purpose. He’s not building just for today; he’s building for his children, your children, and the next generation of young people in your district.
Michael’s work extends beyond the crypto trend in modern finance: he’s shaping a movement. He has become a thought leader in the blockchain world, creating not just technology but an ideology grounded in transparency, opportunity, and economic freedom.
Where many see crypto as a speculative asset, Michael sees it as a tool to unlock financial access, create jobs, and empower communities. His focus is not on hype but on real-world solutions that can transform lives here and now.
Contrast With the Status Quo
Michael Carbonara is ready to be the bold new voice South Florida needs. While his competitor is grossly out of touch with the actual needs of the communities she hopes to represent, Michael is a man of the people who is acutely attuned to what you and your family are asking for.
He’s clear. He’s fearless. He’s committed to doing what’s right. It’s time to bring common sense back to Washington and build a future that works for all Americans, and Michael Carbonara is the man for the job.
