About Mike
Tampa Bay's Fighter for Opportunity and Lower Costs
Meet Mike Beltran
Mike Beltran grew up in Brooklyn, New York. After graduating from Harvard Law at the height of the Great Recession, Mike moved to Florida like so many others looking for opportunity. He built a career as an attorney fighting for everyday people and small businesses against powerful interests. After years of serving his community as a lawyer, Mike felt called to public service.
What Mike Delivered for Tampa Bay
In just six years as a state legislator, Mike helped deliver the largest tax cut in Florida history, putting money back in the pockets of Tampa Bay families dealing with historic inflation. He cut healthcare bureaucracies blocking new clinics from opening and expanded telehealth access, making affordable healthcare available to more families and seniors across Tampa Bay. He cut the red tape that blocked qualified workers from starting careers and small businesses from growing.
Why Mike is Running for Congress
After six years in the legislature, Mike stepped away from public office to focus on his law practice and his family. But watching Kathy Castor spend 18 years in Washington while Tampa Bay families struggled with skyrocketing costs, Mike decided it was time to come back.
Mike’s Family
Mike lives in Southeast Hillsborough with his wife and their two sons. He is an attorney licensed in Florida and New York, with a practice focused on fighting for individuals and small businesses against powerful opponents.
