Exclusive video: Governor Ron DeSantis visits TFL, talks national issues

URBANDALE, Iowa – Florida Governor Ron DeSantis visited the Iowa headquarters of The FAMiLY Leader on Friday, November 10, to discuss some of the key issues that will define America’s future as we approach the 2024 presidential election.


The event was organized by TFL’s #ChooseWell2024 campaign – an effort to educate voters toward making an informed choice in the 2024 Iowa Caucuses and General Election – and attended by representatives from the cornerstone partners of the #ChooseWell2024 campaign, including Family Policy Alliance, First Liberty Institute, The Heritage Foundation, and Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America.


Governor DeSantis spoke of his faith: "I think our spirit has been beaten down. We need a spiritual revival. We need people to understand that there’s a higher power here. Our freedoms ultimately come from God."


The FAMiLY Leader President and CEO Bob Vander Plaats also spoke with Governor DeSantis about national issues:

  • The qualities needed in our next chief executive

  • The nomination of federal judges

  • The sanctity of human life

  • Religious liberty

  • ESG investment dictates

  • Protecting minors from life-altering transgender procedures

  • And more
