"I accepted the invitation to emcee the Palm Beach Ray of Hope Gala—an evening dedicated to honoring and uplifting our frontline heroes," the 61-year-old wrote.
"This nonpartisan event supports The Academy for Nursing and Health Occupations, a 501(c)(3) organization that trains 350-400 nurses every year, directly addressing the critical shortage of healthcare professionals in Palm Beach County," he continued before going on to address the importance of supporting healthcare workers:
"Supporting nurses isn't political—it's essential. These are the people who care for us and our families when we need it most, and I believe we should show up for them with the same unwavering dedication they show up with every single day. I stand by the importance of healthcare, of service, and of investing in those who care for our communities."
"My values and political views remain unchanged," Stamos added, sharing a link to the nonprofit organization Democracy Forward and encouraging his followers to donate.
Stamos endorsed Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in the 2020 election, according to People, and went on to endorse Harris in 2024. In November of last year, he shared a passionate message with his fans on Instagram, pleading with them to vote for a "leader who prioritizes unity and strives to bridge the divides that have deepened over the past years."
"My hope is that this election leads to a renewed focus on bringing people together, fostering dialogue, and seeking justice and equality for all," he wrote.
