Let's make this birthday one to remember.

59 years old (Born on October 10, 1965)

Happy Birthday, Steve Southerland! Another year older and wiser—though we're still debating the latter. From navigating Florida's 2nd congressional district to steering committees on Natural Resources and Transportation & Infrastructure, you've proven that politics can indeed be a wild ride.

Your dedication has made waves (and roads!) smoother for many Floridians. Whether you're championing conservation or infrastructure improvements, your efforts haven't gone unnoticed—even if we occasionally tease you about those endless committee meetings. Here's hoping this birthday brings fewer debates than Congress but just as much laughter!

Cheers to another successful trip around the sun—and hopefully less traffic along the way!
