The official home of Paul Ron Cruz. Films, podcasts, writing, ideas, and an ongoing collection of projects about where we've been—and where we're going next.
AN IMPORTANT UPDATE
After an incredible journey, I will no longer be a candidate for the U.S. Senate after we were unable to qualify for the ballot.
In the weeks leading up to the deadline, our family faced a series of unexpected challenges. Our vehicle suffered a major failure, my wife was hospitalized—where we learned we're expecting our fourth child—and I was hospitalized after what was initially believed to be a stroke. We later learned that severe spinal nerve damage was affecting the strength and function of my left side.
As a veteran, I've spent much of my life learning to push through adversity rather than talk about it. Asking for help and showing vulnerability did not come easily, and I stayed quiet longer than I should have.
To every volunteer, donor, supporter, friend, and person who believed in what we were trying to accomplish: thank you.
While this campaign has ended, my commitment to public service, community, and the issues that brought us together has not. I'm proud to support Angie Nixon for U.S. Senate, Dana Foster for Governor, and many outstanding candidates working to serve communities across Florida.
And now, a new chapter begins.
Through Story Ave Productions, I'll continue telling stories that matter through film, documentaries, podcasts, and original entertainment—exploring our history, our culture, our challenges, and the things that connect us.
This isn't goodbye. It's Chapter One.
Very respectfully,
Paul R. Cruz

A Voice for Florida, A Vision for Change
I am Paul Ron Cruz, a proud Puerto Rican American, a 17-year U.S. Army combat veteran, and a dedicated family man raising three sons with my loving wife. Throughout my life, I have devoted myself to service, resilience, and community. I am not a politician—I’m an outsider rallying against the establishment. Now, I am ready to bring that same unwavering dedication to the people of Florida as your next Senator.
