'Stay tuned': Miami's mayor teases possible presidential announcement

Mayor Francis Suarez of Miami on Sunday urged Americans to listen to his speech Thursday in California, fueling speculation that the Republican presidential field is about to grow by one.

Speaking on "Fox News Sunday," he told host Shannon Bream that America should "stay tuned."

"Next week, like you said, I'm going to be making a big speech in the Reagan Library, and I think it's one that Americans should tune into," he told Bream. "It's one where we talk about what the future of our country should be."

Suarez is to speak Thursday at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute in Simi Valley, Calif., on Thursday, part of an ongoing "Time For Choosing" series.

"I have traveled across the country. I've been to Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Nevada," Suarez said, "I can tell you when I take the message to people, they want to hear more."

The GOP presidential field has been growing by leaps and bounds in recent weeks. Suarez's home state of Florida is already well-represented in the field, with former President Donald Trump and Gov. Ron DeSantis both calling the state home these days.
