After the U.S. Supreme Court struck down same-sex marriage bans on Friday, former Gov. Mike Huckabee, R-Ark., called on Americans to “resist and reject judicial tyranny." Huckabee is currently making a second bid for the Republican presidential nomination. 

U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy, D-Fla., cheered the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to strike down bans on same-sex marriage on Friday. Murphy is running for the U.S. Senate in 2016. 

"This is a historic day in our nation’s history,” Murphy said on Friday. “ For too long, same-sex couples have been discriminated against because of who they are and who they love. Today, that ends. We are a nation that prides itself on the diversity of our citizens, and I applaud the Supreme Court’s decision to give same-sex couples equal marriage rights under the law once and for all." 

The U.S. Supreme Court struck down same-sex marriage bans at the state level on Friday in a 5-4 decision. Justice Anthony Kennedy joined the liberal block in the majority. 

Veteran and conservative activist Brian Mast, now running for Congress, came out swinging at the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision on King v. Burwell. On Friday morning, Mast, who is running in the crowded Republican primary to replace U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy, D-Fla., made his case against the decision. 

U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla., expressed his support for the U.S. Supreme Court ruling on Thursday in the King v. Burwell case.  The court ruled on favor or tax subsidies set up by President Barack Obama’s federal health-care law and the Florida delegation split along party lines over the decision. 

On Thursday, two Florida congressmen -- Republican U.S. Rep. Dennis Ross and Democrat U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy -- joined forces to bring back the Flood Insurance Market Parity and Modernization Act which, they insist, will allow more role for the private market on flood insurance by reducing the federal role and giving states more flexibility. Ross and Murphy introduced a similar bill last year that went nowhere. 

U.S. Rep. Tom Rooney, R-Fla., testified before the U.S. House Judiciary Committee on Thursday on the need to reform federal regulatory crimes and incarceration policies. 

Chris Hudson, the Florida director for fiscal conservative group Americans for Prosperity (AFP), insisted on Thursday that the U.S. Supreme Court’s King v. Burwell decision was not a game changer for health care in the Sunshine State. 

U.S. Rep. Gus Bilirakis, R-Fla, weighed in on the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision on King v. Burwell and continued his opposition to President Barack Obama’s health-care law. 

After reaching an agreement with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services over continuing some  Low Income Pool (LIP) funding despite Florida not agreeing to Medicaid expansion this week, Gov. Rick Scott declared a “tremendous win” for the Sunshine State on Thursday as he withdrew his lawsuit against the Obama administration.
