"I’m warning socialists and communists not to travel to Florida. They are not welcome in the Sunshine State," Scott tweeted.
Scott attached a video to the tweet, saying, "Senator Rick Scott here. Let me give you a travel warning. If you are a socialist, communist, someone who believes in big government -- I would think twice, twink twice, if you are thinking of taking a vacation or moving to Florida."

"We're the free state of Florida. We actually don't believe in socialism; we actually know people; we know some people in our state lived under it, and we know people that lived under socialism," Scott added. "It is not good. It is not good for anybody. So if you are thinking about, it, thinking of coming to Florida and you are a socialist or communist, think twice. We like freedom, liberty, capitalism, things like that."
Rick Scott was responding to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), which issued a travel advisory for Florida, reading, "Florida is openly hostile toward African Americans, people of color and LGBTQ+ individuals. Before traveling to Florida, please understand that the state of Florida devalues and marginalizes the contributions of, and the challenges faced by African Americans and other communities of color."
This is not the first time Scott has issued a travel advisory for Florida. In May, Scott issued a statement slamming the organization for their victim mentality.
"Today, Senator Rick Scott issued a formal travel advisory for all socialists visiting the state of Florida. The travel advisory comes in direct response to the Biden Administration attempts to erase capitalism and the system that has brought prosperity to Florida and the entire United States," Scott said in his statement, as the DC Enquirer previously reported. "The formal travel notice states, 'Florida is openly hostile toward Socialists, Communists, and those that enable them. Before traveling to Florida, please understand that the state of Florida devalues and marginalizes the contributions of and the challenges faced by Socialists and others who work in the Biden Administration.'"
