Former U.S. Representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL), who was President Trump’s first choice for U.S. Attorney General, announced today on social media that he’s “returning to public service” in Florida.
As seen below in a letter written by Daniel Perez, Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives, Gaetz has been appointed to serve as a member of the Triumph Gulf Coast, Inc. Board of Directors.

[NOTE: Gaetz’s father, Florida State Senator Don Gaetz, was an original member and Chair of Triumph Gulf Coast’s Board from 2018-2022.]

Matt Gaetz will join the current members of the board, which includes two real estate developers, an owner of a small container vessels trading company, an owner of several Culligan Water franchises, and an owner of a construction/engineering company. His term begins July 1, 2026 and ends June 30, 2030.
