Republican Congressional Candidate Dan Franzese Challenges Rep. Lois Frankel to a
Series of Debates
PALM BEACH, FL Sept. 4, 2024 – Republican Congressional Candidate Dan Franzese, who is running for Congress in former President Donald J. Trump’s home district in Florida (CD-22), has challenged incumbent Rep. Lois Frankel to a series of debates. “The people of Palm Beach County have a right to know where the candidates stand on the key issues,” Franzese said. “A debate allows voters to hear directly from the candidates what positions they support, and what their vision is for our great country.” Franzese has proposed two debates: the first would be primarily focused on economic issues, such as inflation and jobs, and the second debate would largely cover immigration and border- related issues. He is flexible on dates and will work around Rep. Frankel’s calendar. “I am looking forward to debating Lois Frankel and showing the voters of our district the starkly different positions Rep. Frankel and I have,” Franzese concluded. About Dan Franzese: Dan Franzese is the Republican nominee for Congress in Florida’s 22nd Congressional District. In August of this year, he decisively won the Republican primary with 53% of the vote in a three candidate race. This result was more than two times the votes won by a well-funded opponent who out-spent him on TV and radio by nearly 4 to 1. Dan was the 2022 Republican Nominee in this district, winning 45% of the vote in the general election. With the major changes that have occurred in this district over the last two years, Florida’s CD-22 is widely viewed as a seat that the Republicans can win this year. Dan has spent his life building things and giving back to the community. He’s a successful businessman, a family man and a community leader. He’s also a problem solver with a decades-long track record of success in a wide range of leadership roles in the business world and as a Church and community leader. Dan is a graduate of the Wharton School of Business, having earned his MBA from that school in 1989. You can learn more about Dan Franzese at DanForUSA.com.

U.S. Congressional Candidate Dan Franzese (FL-CD22) Promises to “Save the Seniors”
by Ending the Tax on Social Security Benefits
PALM BEACH, FL – June 25, 2024 - Dan Franzese, 2024 Republican candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in Palm Beach County, announced today that he is calling for the Federal government to stop taxing social security benefits. “My district is filled with retirees who are struggling financially because of the irresponsible and reckless fiscal policies implemented by Joe Biden and Lois Frankel,” Franzese said. “In fact, more than a million seniors nationwide have fallen below the poverty line due to Biden-flation. So it is more important than ever to eliminate the taxation of Social Security benefits. I want to provide seniors with the monetary relief they deserve.” Franzese added, “America’s retirees worked hard to earn the money that went into the Social Security system. For decades, they diligently made payroll contributions from every single paycheck. These contributions were made from income that has already been taxed. It is completely unreasonable that it should be taxed again when benefits are finally paid out.” “Ending this outrageous and unfair taxation of Social Security benefits is a major issue in my Congressional campaign. When I’m in Washington, I will make the fight to end all taxes on Social Security one of my top priorities. And I ask all elected officials and candidates for public office to join me in saving our seniors from this unjust and onerous Federal tax,” Franzese concluded. About Dan Franzese: Daniel J. Franzese was the 2022 Republican Nominee in Florida’s 22 nd Congressional District, winning 45% of the vote in the general election.

Republican Congressional Candidate Dan Franzese Calls for Deporting Foreign Nationals
Who Agitate for “Death to America”
PALM BEACH, FL April 22, 2024 – Dan Franzese, 2024 Republican candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in former President Donald J. Trump’s home district in Florida (CD-22), is calling for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to deport all individuals who publicly engage in activities such as proclaiming “Death to America” if those individuals are here on student visas or if they have entered our country illegally. “While I usually am in favor of free speech as protected by the First Amendment,” Franzese said, “calls for the violent eradication of America within our nation by foreign nationals falls outside of the free speech rubric and is dangerous and destructive. It cannot be tolerated.” “I believe that the United States of America is the greatest nation in the world,” Franzese continued. “Millions of people flock to our country for a better life because of the American values of freedom, tolerance, and equality of opportunity, and because our free markets system has created unrivaled prosperity.” “The U.S. has a long history of welcoming students and legal immigrants to take advantage of all the good things our country offers. But we must not permit people to stay here if they are openly advocating violence against America,” Franzese concluded. About Dan Franzese: Daniel J. Franzese has spent his life building things and giving back to the community. Dan is running on an America First platform and is the only candidate in his race who has endorsed Donald J. Trump to be America’s 47th President. He was the 2022 Republican Nominee in Florida’s 22nd Congressional District, winning 45% of the vote in the general election.

Congressional Candidate for FL-22 Announcement
PALM BEACH, FL - Monday, April 17, 2023 Businessman and former Republican Congressional Candidate for FL-22, Dan Franzese, has announced that he will again run against incumbent Congresswoman Lois Frankel in the 2024 election. In 2022, by winning 45% of the vote in the general election, Franzese outperformed all previous Republican contenders who previously ran against Frankel in the Democrat-leaning district, and the momentum for his candidacy has grown ever since. "I’m running again because Frankel continues to fail all of us and it’s only getting worse for Americans. The career politicians in charge right now don’t care about the concerns of ordinary Americans," Franzese said. "They don’t care that Americans are struggling to put food on the table. They don’t care about your safety and they fail to create opportunities for Americans to work hard and get ahead. We need to protect freedom of speech and equality of opportunity, secure our borders, balance our budgets, tackle inflation, and get back to energy independence; our national security depends on all of these things," Franzese explained. With a strong fundraising plan and a targeted ground game, Franzese will build on the successes of his previous campaign to flip FL-22 Republican. If elected, Franzese promises to bring a businessman’s perspective to Washington, stating "I will get our government to work for us, not AGAINST us." ### Contact: Jake Menges Phone: 347-266-9079 Email: jakemenges@gmail.com

Dan Franzese: Statement on Israel
The people of Israel should all be in our thoughts and prayers as they respond to this weekend’s absolutely horrific attack by Hamas. We should all join with world leaders in condemning Hamas and their supporters for this genocide. The news from Israel keeps getting worse and worse, with more than 1000 dead, including at least 20 Americans. They have tortured their victims, desecrated their bodies, beheaded infants, and taken civilian hostages. These are all war crimes that should be met with the harshest measures, and Israel has my full support as they respond. Equally troubling to me has been the support shown for Hamas’s actions by some Americans, including students at highly regarded colleges such as Harvard and New York University. This is appalling, and we must call them out for this hate. I have often said that when I am elected to Congress, Israel will have a friend in Washington. I stand unwavering in that support, and I hope that Israel can count on you as well. Regards, Dan Franzese
