This Session, Brodeur is returning to chair the same committee he has led since 2022.
In the 2025 Session, Sen. Jason Brodeur wants to invest in Florida’s citrus industry, prioritize how to spend casino money to help the environment and protect private property rights.
Brodeur, the influential Republican lawmaker from Seminole County who is Senate President Pro Tempore, is looking to make his mark as he continues to lead the Appropriations Committee on Agriculture, Environment and General Government.
Brodeur is a health care consultant by trade, but he says he understands the agriculture industry. He points to his bachelor’s degree at the University of Florida studying agriculture. Brodeur also owns a small timber farm in Jefferson County of the state’s Big Bend region.
“I am an actual farmer, although it’s not my main vocation,” Brodeur said.
This Session, Brodeur is returning to chair the same committee he has led since 2022.
Florida’s famous citrus industry is in a downward decline as growers battle pests, hurricanes and other problems that destroy their crops. Helping the industry remains a priority, Brodeur said in a conversation with Florida Politics.
