Jim Schwartzel’s life is rooted in faith, family, and tradition. A proud native of Southwest Florida, Jim is a graduate of Bishop Verot High School and married his high school sweetheart, Carly. Together, they’re raising two children—one attending his alma mater, Stetson University, and the other enrolled at Florida SouthWestern State College.
Meet Jim
Family & Business Man
A successful businessman and conservative firebrand, Jim owns and operates 92.5 FOX News, one of Florida’s top-rated conservative talk radio stations. Through this powerful platform, he has amplified the voices of patriots, backed law enforcement, and consistently stood against the radical agendas of the progressive Left. Jim also owns Gulfshore Life Media, which publishes award-winning publications including Gulfshore Life, Gulfshore Business, and The Naples Press—making him one of the most influential conservative voices in Southwest Florida.
Jim is running for Congress to give President Donald J. Trump the support he needs and to fight for the conservative values that make Southwest Florida strong. He’s not a career politician with ambitions for higher office—like President Trump, he’s a straight-talking outsider who’s fed up with the D.C. swamp ignoring real Americans. In Washington, Jim will work to secure the border and stop illegal immigration, stand firmly with law enforcement and first responders, and defend free speech from the growing threat of censorship by Big Tech. He will also fight for term limits to end the ruling class of career politicians who are more beholden to special interests than the people they were elected to serve. Jim will protect our economy by opposing wasteful government spending and fighting against the socialist policies that are weakening our nation. And above all, he will always defend our constitutional freedoms.
Jim understands the importance of protecting Southwest Florida’s economy and way of life. He’ll fight back against outside political interest groups that threaten our environment, suppress free speech, and drive up healthcare costs. He believes in local solutions—not federal mandates—and supports community-based charities and the arts in ways that don’t burden taxpayers.
Jim Schwartzel is a conservative, an outsider, and a fighter Southwest Florida can count on to deliver real solutions and be their strong conservative voice in Congress.
