Florida's Storm Recovery Team's 'Wonder Woman'
She has been criticized by Democrats and some Republicans as being too "right-wing," with some of those same Republicans rooting for her defeat in the upcoming November general election, but Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R) has shut down the contrarian talking heads by tackling the ongoing Hurricane Milton recovery efforts.
Even before Milton made landfall, Rep. Luna was neck-deep in Hurricane Helene's recovery efforts.
Rep. Luna has even taken President Joe Biden's call (Kamala hasn't dropped a dime that we know of) and surveyed areas impacted by the storm with the President, Rep. Kathy Castor (D)., and Senator Rick Scott (R).
"Today, I joined @POTUS, @FEMA_Deanne, and @SenRickScott
in St. Pete Beach to assess Hurricane Milton and Helene's impact. I discussed increasing NFIP coverage limits with @POTUSand thanked him for FEMA's assistance. Together, we’ll ensure every American gets the help they need," stated Luna on social media.
Luna has also stood alongside Governor Ron DeSantis during a recent briefing in her district.

Ron DeSantis-SeaPort Manatee is Southwest Florida’s primary deep-water port and an essential link in our supply chain. Though the port sustained serious damage from Hurricane Milton, we’ve worked with the port to resume partial operations. Still, SeaPort Manatee must be completely repaired and restored to full operating capacity. Necessities like fuel, produce, appliances, and construction materials come through this port—and Floridians rebuilding from major hurricanes need these goods now more than ever.
That’s why I have awarded $9.5 million in state funding for SeaPort Manatee to make a full recovery following Hurricane Milton. These funds will support:
Emergency berth repairs and dredging in state waters,
Immediate security needs and access control, and
Plans to harden port infrastructure ahead of potential future storms.
I’ve also directed state agencies to assist the port with expedited permitting and additional personnel, and I’ve directed the Florida national guard to help rebuild the perimeter fence.
