Florida governor candidate promises mandatory uniforms in public schools

ORLANDO, Fla. – After calling for a 50% OnlyFans Sin Tax last week, a candidate gunning for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ job is now pushing a new proposal: mandatory uniforms in public schools.

Investment firm CEO and conservative influencer James Fishback, who is among the candidates joining the governor’s race, announced the plan on Tuesday via X.

“As Florida Governor, I will mandate that all public school students come to school wearing a uniform,” he wrote.

Fishback added that boys would be required to wear a white polo, khakis and a belt. Meanwhile, girls would have to wear knee-length dresses or pant suits.

“Strong schools are only possible with order and discipline,” he declared.

When asked about who would provide the uniforms, Fishback said that parents would receive a $250 stipend per child.

“Enough with the tracksuits. Enough looking like the Migos in our public schools,” Fishback said. “You show up dressed for success, twice a month with a tie, but the rest of the time with a white polo and a jacket.”

It’s not the only platform that Fishback is running on, however. He is also campaigning to stop H-1B visas for foreign workers, cancel A.I. data centers, and abolish property taxes, much in the same vein as DeSantis.

However, Fishback also made headlines last week when he promised to implement a hefty sin tax against OnlyFans creators, saying that the revenue would go toward funding public education, crisis pregnancy centers and mental health programs.

“As Florida governor, year one, I will push for the first-of-its-kind OnlyFans Sin Tax,” Fishback said during an interview with the conservative YouTube channel NXR Studios. “If you are a so-called OnlyFans creator in Florida, you are going to pay 50% to the state on whatever you so-called earn via that online degeneracy platform.”

On the Republican side, Fishback is running against candidates like frontrunner U.S. Rep. Byron Donalds and Lt. Gov. Jay Collins, the latter of whom announced his candidacy earlier this month.

The election this year is set to be held on Tuesday, Nov. 3.
