DeSantis is not the only GOP Florida lawmaker set to speak at CPAC. U.S. Sen. Rick Scott and U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz are also slated to speak during the four-day conference.
Other notable speakers include several members of former President Donald Trump’s cabinet including former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Ben Carson and former White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
Trump, who is now a Florida resident, is not currently among the list of speakers nor are any members of his family; however, a photo of Ivanka Trump does appear on the CPAC website under the agenda tab.
CPAC, which has been running since 1974, is normally held in the Washington, D.C. area. This will be the first time the convention will be held in Central Florida.
