James Drew Bush III (born February 13, 1955) is a Miami, Florida teacher and Democratic politician who served as the representative for District 109 of the Florida House of Representatives.

[1] Representative Bush was born in Panama City, Florida on February 13, 1955.

In 2010, he ran for Congress in the 17th District, losing to state senator Frederica Wilson.

Since returning to the legislature, Bush garnered a conservative record; voting for controversial bills put forward by Ron DeSantis namely the "Don't Say Gay" bill.

Earning the ire of many in Tallahassee and the Democratic party's liberal and progressive wings, Bush lost reelection in 2022 to Ashley Gantt and since neither candidate faces a general election opponent the primary was tantamount to victory.
