WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce announced its endorsement of Representative María Elvira Salazar to represent Florida’s Twenty-Seventh Congressional District. The Chamber endorses pro-business candidates for federal office who will vigorously support public policy that will advance economic growth, support jobs, and promote fiscal responsibility. 

“Representative María Elvira Salazar has a proven track record of leadership and delivering results for the residents and local businesses of South Florida,” said U.S. Chamber of Commerce Senior Political Strategist Ashlee Rich Stephenson. “Rep. Salazar is committed to free enterprise solutions that will move Florida and our nation forward. She understands the economic challenges facing families, job creators, and the workforce in her district. The U.S. Chamber is proud to endorse Congresswoman Salazar in her re-election.”  

"I was born and raised in Miami — the daughter of Cuban political refugees. From Calle Ocho in Little Havana to Miracle Mile in Coral Gables, it's the honor of my lifetime to represent so many hardworking men and women," said Congresswoman María Elvira Salazar. "I'm proud to be endorsed by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce because I'll never stop fighting for our nation's job creators and look forward to continuing working in a bipartisan way to empower our small business owners." 

“The Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce thanks Congresswoman María Elvira Salazar for her committed partnership with Miami’s business community,” said Alfred Sanchez, Greater Miami Chamber President and CEO. “We look forward to working with the Congresswoman to address key legislative priorities, including local infrastructure initiatives.”
