Florida Republican Senator Rick Scott has endorsed Alabama Congressman Barry Moore in the race for the U.S. Senate, adding another high-profile name to Moore’s list of supporters.

“Barry Moore is the America First fighter that Alabama needs," Scott said. "Barry has been a strong conservative. I'm proud to join President Trump and endorse him. I look forward to working with him in the Senate to Make America Great Again."

Scott’s endorsement follows earlier backing from President Donald Trump, which has helped boost Moore’s standing in early polling and campaign activity. 

“I’d like to thank Senator Scott for his encouragement and his support,” said Moore. “We’ve got a lot of work to do in DC. In the Senate, I’ll work with Senator Scott to permanently close our borders to illegal immigration, make life affordable for working families, and end the brainwashing of our children by left-wing radicals.”

Moore has positioned himself as a staunch conservative aligned with Trump’s policies. His campaign has focused on border security, economic pressure on working families, and education issues—messages that have resonated with the GOP base.

Scott, a former Governor of Florida, brings national weight to the endorsement. Before entering politics, he built a large healthcare company and later won two terms as Florida Governor in 2010 and 2014. He was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2018 and went on to serve as Chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee during the 2022 election cycle. His name is often mentioned in Republican circles as a potential Presidential candidate in 2028.
