Jay Collins, a Florida state senator and political candidate, used his Twitter account on May 13, 2026 to share updates about his campaign and policy positions. The posts focused on topics including energy, transportation infrastructure, and tort reform in Florida.
In a tweet published at 12:57 UTC, Collins promoted an upcoming media appearance: “Tune in this morning to the David Webb Show at 10:30am. I’ll be sharing a campaign update and how we’re going to keep Florida great.”
Later that day, at 14:03 UTC, Collins highlighted priorities for the state’s future development: “Florida’s future depends on two things: energy and transportation. We need reliable energy on demand and infrastructure that keeps people and commerce moving. That’s why we’re already looking at the future, including small modular reactors. If Florida is going to keep leading,” Small modular reactors are being considered by some policymakers as part of efforts to diversify the state’s energy sources and support grid reliability.
At 15:09 UTC, Collins addressed economic concerns related to legal reforms in Florida: “Affordability matters, and Florida families should not bear the weight of a hidden “tort tax.” Thanks to Governor DeSantis pushing legislation that I supported in 2023, tort reform is helping crack down on lawsuit abuse, reduce insurance costs, and strengthen Florida’s economy.” Tort reform has been a significant legislative issue in recent years; supporters argue it reduces excessive litigation costs for businesses and consumers.
Jay Collins serves as a member of the Florida Senate representing District 14. His public communications often focus on infrastructure modernization and regulatory changes affecting economic growth.
