Congressman Gus Bilirakis

 

“No one will do more to assist Florida's veterans, protect Florida's seniors, and make our area proud in Tallahassee, than Chris Sprowls. I've known Chris, personally, for years as a tireless advocate for those who wore the uniform. From establishing free Veterans legal assistance programs in law school to pioneering Veterans courts locally, Chris has a special place in his heart for those suffering from PTSD and substance abuse. Chris' time as a prosecutor also demonstrates his commitment to defending seniors from abuse and violent crime, as well as going after pill mills that are destroying families right here in west Florida. Chris is my friend and I can think of no one better to represent us in Tallahassee.”

 

Florida CFO, Jeff Atwater

 

“Chris Sprowls is a true consumer advocate.  Chris knows firsthand how fraud can hurt consumers and overburden those who are already paying their fair share. Chris has worked to combat fraud up close and personal, and he will use his experience to demand the truth from industry leaders and policy-makers alike.”

 

Attorney General, Pam Bondi

 

“I am pleased to support my friend, and fellow prosecutor Chris Sprowls for Florida House District 65. Chris has served on the front lines seeking justice, working to put criminals behind bars where they belong and keeping the citizens and families of Pinellas and Pasco counties safe. His experience will be a tremendous benefit to District 65, and he would be a valuable addition to the Florida House of Representatives.”

 

State Attorney Bernie McCabe

 

“Chris Sprowls is the kind of leader that Pinellas County needs.” Said McCabe, “He is a fierce advocate, has a common sense approach to solving problems, and has a deep understanding of what it is our community needs to be safe, secure, and prosperous.”Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri “No one can match Chris Sprowls’ dedication to the health, safety and wellbeing of the most vulnerable among us. From protecting kids in school to defending our seniors and veterans from abuse, I trust Chris Sprowls to always put our residents first. As a prosecutor Chris knows what it takes to keep our community safe. Having Chris Sprowls in the Florida House will ensure that Pinellas County has the tools it needs to keep our families safe.”

 

Pinellas Sheriff Bob Gualtieri

 

"As a prosecutor, Chris knows what it takes to keep our community safe.  Having Chris Sprowls in th Florida House will ensure that Pinellas County has the tools it needs to keep our families safe."

 

Pasco Sheriff Chris Nocco

 

"Chris Sprowls has worked side by side with our deputies and detectives to put criminals in prison and bring justice to victims. We need leaders, like Chris, who will continue to support law enforcement and our good citizens who deserve a strong voice in the legislature.  Chris Sprowls has my full support and the support of those I serve with."

 

Former State Senator and Pasco Tax Collector, Mike Fasano

 

"For a decade I served as your State Senator. During that time we have band together to stop huge increases to our homeowners insurance, stop special interest groups from directing the agenda in Tallahassee and provided a voice of reason when there seemed to be none. To continue these fights we must elect individuals who have a proven record as common sense, compassionate leaders. Today I ask you to join me in supporting my good friend, Chris Sprowls for State Representative. He is one of those leaders. I have known Chris since he was a young man. He is a lifelong Republican and a great public servant. He has spent the last few years as a prosecutor in the Pasco/Pinellas State Attorney’s Office where he has ensured that those who prey on our most vulnerable citizens are brought to justice. He has garnered the respect of law enforcement officers and the gratitude of our community.

 

When Chris sees problems arise in our neighborhoods he does not wait on the sidelines to lead, he rises to the challenge. When veterans throughout the country needed legal representation to ensure they got the benefits they deserve- Chris met that challenge by creating a national program to assist them. When establishments that were a danger to children moved next to schools and churches- Chris fought to stop it. And when we needed an individual to crusade against predators- Chris was there to advocate for us in the courtroom. Now we must call on Chris again by sending him from the courtroom to the capital.

 

In the years to come, our state will face many challenges and we need principled policymakers like Chris in the Florida House of Representatives. I endorse his candidacy for the Florida House without reservation and I encourage you to the same. He will make us proud!"State Senator Jeff Brandes“Today, I am proud to endorse Chris Sprowls for the Florida House of Representatives. His selfless dedication to those who wore the uniform demonstrates the kind of character and service needed in the Florida House. His career of public service at the State Attorney’s Office speaks for itself.”

 

Pinellas Property Appraiser, Pam Dubov

 

"Chris Sprowls' leadership and interest in the issues that affect our community were apparent to me when news of our skyrocketing flood insurance rates hit homeowners across Pinellas County. Chris was one of the first people to ask what he could do to help fix a severe problem for Pinellas County homeowners. He has personally taken the initiative to address issues affecting veterans who have special needs or problems as well. It's that type of leadership style, eagerness to learn and readiness to act, that we need in Tallahassee."

 

Pinellas Clerk of the Court, Ken Burke

 

“Chris Sprowls has served our community for years as a prosecutor in our courtrooms. During that time I've witnessed firsthand his willingness to lead and his devotion to serving our community. The Florida House of Representatives could use more homegrown leaders like Chris Sprowls to help restore faith in our government.”

 

General Richard I. Neal, U.S.M.C. (Ret.), former Assistant Commandant of the Marine Corps

 

“I have known Chris Sprowls almost his whole life, I know who he is, and what he is made of. Chris Sprowls is a true leader, and a strong advocate for veterans. He will make us proud."
