I don’t understand the sudden push for lower sales tax as our state relies on that revenue. We are very likely to have a decrease in tourism coming up soon and the resulting decrease in the revenue they bring, so it would be really unwise to starve the state in this way as well. Additionally, with
I am a mom of teens and an attorney with extensive experience with dependency work. We do not need to be removing limitations on child labor. We knew that cracking down on immigration would leave some industries hurting for employees. The answer is not our children. Overnight work for children as
Please vote against all the bad preemption/growth management bills There are several bills making their way through the legislature that would be terrible for our natural areas, agriculture, and water supply and quality and I ask that you vote against all of them. SB 1118 and HB 1209 would allow
If it reaches you, please vote NO on SB 1288. I am a mom to teens, a teen troop leader, and a longtime dependency attorney and I’m writing to ask you to vote NO on SB 1288 if it comes to you. I want, and they need, accurate health care information, including sexual health care information, for my

We should be trying to prevent sprawl and encourage community protection of their lands. We want things for the tourists to come see and to protect agric

Each year for the past several years there have been preemption bills that are starving our cities and counties of needed funds as well as hindering our communities from promoting development and activities in the most appropriate direction for OUR citizens. Please oppose preemption bills that prohi
I do not agree with further efforts to limit the ballot initiative process in Florida. I also do not agree with further interference with voting. We should be expanding democratic options for our citizens, not contracting them.
The governor has stated that gun laws need to be loosened. I disagree. Two years ago my husband had a mental health breakdown. He threatened to kill himself, law enforcement, and me. Sheriff’s deputies were able, because of the red flag law, to take his extensive collection of firearms, but were not
