Since Florida currently leads the country in cases of the new highly contagious U.K. variant, a reporter asked the governor to respond to the near endless photos and videos showing maskless crowds that occurred before and after Super Bowl 55 in Tampa. “You don’t care as much if it’s a ‘peaceful protest,’ then it’s fine. You don’t care as much if they’re celebrating a Biden election. In the Tampa Bay area, where we are currently enjoying a maskless Super Bowl boat parade, 20 cases were found in Hillsborough County, 19 in Pinellas, six in Pasco and one in Hernando.

click to enlarge Photo via Ron DeSantis/TwitterGov. Ron DeSantis on June 8, 2020Gov. Ron DeSantis has extended a September executive order aimed at preventing business shutdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic. The two-page extension, issued before the Thanksgiving holiday, said the state “continues to suffer economic harm as a result of COVID-19 related closures, exacerbating the impacts of the State of Emergency, and Floridians should not be prohibited by local governments from working or operating a business.”The extension is slated to last as long as Florida remains under a state of emergency during the pandemic.The Sept. 25 order barred local emergency ordinances that could “prevent an individual from working or from operating a business.” It also prevented local governments from requiring restaurants to operate below 50 percent indoor capacity, and required local governments to quantify the economic impact and the public-health need for limits on indoor capacity below 100 percent.The September order also suspended the collection of penalties and fines for violations of such things as local mask ordinances, though it did not outright ban the ordinances.

Ron DeSantis hoped to focus on I-4 construction on Monday. But be prepared to sit on the phone for about an hour and a half.The average hold time for specific claim information reached 99 minutes on Monday.Yesterday we had a million phone calls. Weve had 15 million phone calls since March 15, said Satter, who was put in charge of the Department of Economic Opportunitys troubled CONNECT online unemployment system in April. As he finished the press conference, he said they received 1 million phone calls to their office yesterday. Of the money sent out to claimants, $1.79 million was from federal stimulus money.

Ron DeSantis on Wednesday defended the firing of Department of Health employee Rebekah Jones and pushed back against media accounts calling her the chief architect of the states COVID-19 information dashboard. The governor also pointed to an issue of an unrelated criminal charge against Jones. During a media availability in Orlando with Vice President Mike Pence, DeSantis said his administration has been transparent and that the COVID-19 data remains publicly available. Any insinuation otherwise is just typical partisan narrative trying to be spun, DeSantis said. And part of the reason is that because you got a lot of people (reporters) who wax poetically for weeks and weeks about how Florida was going to be just like New York. Two of the charges have been closed, but court records show a cyberstalking charge remains open.

He grew up in House District 44 and graduated from West Orange High School where he was Class President. He has no criminal record and works to improve the lives of people in the community where he lives. He sometimes walks or jogs throughout our neighborhood where 74 percent of the residents don't look like him. I helped him understand that, unfortunately, people sometimes acted solely based on the color of his skin and what they saw on the outside. Our criminal justice system must, indeed, be color blind because all lives matter.

This means that a large portion of the Florida economy was still operating in relatively normal circumstances in mid-March. In this regard, the March unemployment rate embodies only a limited number of the people who will ultimately be affected by the impact of coronavirus.Nationally, the March unemployment rate was 4.4 percent. I lie awake, for the couple hours that I do lie in bed at night. It is a very complicated process, but we are confident we are making progress hour by hour. The state reported increases in the categories of construction, warehousing, transportation and utilities and financial activities.

Ron DeSantis and other state officials about the COVID-19 pandemic.Commissioners voted 6-3 to maintain a ban against providing free publicity or exposure, after Charter Communications wanted to run messages from DeSantis on its Spectrum networks, which reach about 2.5 million people across Central Florida and the western Panhandle.By basically providing elected officials an opportunity to appear in professionally produced public-service announcements, its basically an opportunity to provide them with additional advertising opportunities, said Commissioner Daniel Brady, one of DeSantis five appointees to the ethics panel. And there are companies that analyze how much your name in the paper is worth, or your name on the internet is worth or your name on television.State law prevents lobbyists and organizations that hire lobbyists from providing gifts to state officials - what is known in Tallahassee as the gift ban. This is an unprecedented circumstance that, Im not being over dramatic, this is life and death stuff.Leznoff, who formerly served as the top staff member on the House Appropriations Committee, is one of two commissioners appointed by the House speaker. So I think any time there is a state of emergency, public-service announcements related to that state of emergency should be allowed for the duration of that emergency.

The central bank plan includes $500 billion in loans and $35 billion in credit protection for state and local governments. Floridas benefits are capped at $275 a week for 12 weeks, while the federal law is slated to provide $600 a week for 13 weeks.

But that was based on information from a time before large and small businesses across the state started cutting back or going dark because of the spread of COVID-19, the respiratory disease caused by the virus.Department Executive Director Ken Lawson said bluntly on Friday the unemployment numbers are going up.Its impacting everybody. Everything we are doing to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 is having an impact on businesses, Lawson said. Its causing an unprecedented level of individuals, Floridians, our friends and neighbors, applying for unemployment benefits.The newly released estimate showed 291,000 Floridians out of work in February from a labor force of 10.46 million, numbers essentially unchanged from January.On Thursday, however, the U.S. Labor Department reported 3.28 million jobless claims had been filed across the country during the week ending Sunday, with 74,313 by Floridians.The state received 5,325 unemployment applications the first week in March and 6,463 the second week. A return to a healthy, vibrant tourism industry also means jobs and revenue returned to the state.

Around 100 Florida residents are infected everyday, says the petition. "To get through this, we need our leaders to listen to the public health experts and their guidance.

But it did not meet a Feb. 1 deadline for submitting an overall 766,200 signatures to get on the 2020 ballot. As a result, it disputed that the Supreme Court review is moot. Moreover, Make It Legal, Florida has already qualified for this (Supreme) Courts review of its initiative petition under the current statutory framework.The Senates motion to dismiss the case also could affect other proposed constitutional amendments that received enough signatures to trigger Supreme Court review but not enough to reach the 2020 ballot. Those amendments propose an expansion of Medicaid eligibility, a prohibition on assault weapons and another proposal to allow recreational marijuana.

"Stealth carriers, people who don't have symptoms, but then are nevertheless passing along or have such mild symptoms is something that really nobody has a handle on that, said DeSantis at the conference. If they're not meeting in those big groups the chances of that being passed on is less. "DeSantis also asked that all Florida universities finish the spring semester online, after four University of Florida students recently tested positive for the virus.The goal of that is that the students not stay congregated on campus, but actually return home, said DeSantis.

"We have made the extraordinary decision to move to virtual, synchronous learning through the remainder of the semester," Cornwell wrote. "He noted professors should continue to teach their classes on the current schedule, but meeting online instead of in person. On-campus classes will end on Friday, and will move online after spring break, when classes resume on Monday, March 23. "We will make every effort to ensure that seniors graduate on time and all students continue to make progress towards their degrees."

Ron DeSantis on Monday declared a state of emergency that would broaden his powers to respond to the novel coronavirus, including allowing him to deploy National Guard troops if necessary.That allows us to create a unified command structure. It also allows, if need be, out-of-state medical personnel to operate in Florida, DeSantis told reporters in the Capitol.

Two of the 14 people who have tested positive for the virus died, DeSantis announced late Friday night. The state currently is monitoring another 278 people for the virus, the website states.

The 2016 ruling came as judges, lawyers and state leaders tried to move forward after the U.S. Supreme Court had found Floridas death-penalty system unconstitutional.After the 2016 ruling, the Legislature passed a law in 2017 that required unanimous jury recommendations. We passed a state law dealing with the death penalty. But based on the Florida Supreme Courts 2016 decision, Pooles death sentence was later vacated because of the lack of a unanimous jury recommendation. That spurred the state to appeal.The Supreme Court last Thursday ordered that Pooles death sentence be reinstated.

click to enlarge Photo via Supreme Court of Florida websiteFive years after Florida voters approved a constitutional amendment aimed at land and water conservation, environmentalists on Monday urged the state Supreme Court to wade into a battle about how money can be spent.Florida Defenders of the Environment and other plaintiffs filed a brief asking justices to decide a long-running dispute that centers on how state lawmakers carried out the 2014 constitutional amendment. The environmentalists took the case to the Supreme Court after the 1st District Court of Appeal sided with lawmakers in September.The amendment required setting aside a portion of real-estate documentary stamp tax revenues in what is known as the Land Acquisition Trust Fund for conservation efforts. Environmentalists contend the money was supposed to go to buying and managing additional property and that the state improperly diverted money to other expenses.But the appeals court, in deciding for the state, said a Leon County circuit judge erred when he ruled money from the amendment could only be used on land purchased after the measure took effect.In the brief Monday, Joseph Little, an attorney for Florida Defenders of the Environment, argued that the appeals courts interpretation defeats the intent of the Florida voters who approved the amendment for inclusion in the Florida Constitution.FDE (Florida Defenders of the Environment) submits that the only authorized purposes are to acquire new conservation and recreation lands and to restore and manage lands so-acquired, Little wrote. In contrast, the state submits that its use of the LATF (Land Acquisition Trust Fund) monies is not so limited and that (the constitutional amendment) authorizes it to expend LATF funds to manage conservation lands whenever acquired, wherever located and by whomever owned, including private persons.At this point in the case, the state has not filed a brief about whether it thinks the Supreme Court should take up the dispute.The state went to the 1st District Court of Appeal after Circuit Judge Charles Dodson last year agreed with environmentalists and found that dozens of legislative budget appropriations were unconstitutional.In a brief filed at the appeals court, attorneys for the Legislature said Dodsons ruling drastically curtails the expressly stated purposes of the constitutional amendment.A broad range of conservation purposes that have properly been funded from the LATF including restoration of springs, beaches, and the Everglades are ineligible to receive those funds under the trial courts reading, the Legislatures attorneys wrote.While the appeals court agreed with the Legislature, Little argued in Mondays brief that the Supreme Court needs to resolve the meaning of the constitutional amendment.In short, the district court's decision places no restrictions on the state's power to expend LATF funds virtually as it pleases and does not require it to acquire and restore any new conservation lands, he wrote. FDE respectfully submits that this decision requires clarification by this (Supreme) Court not only for this case but for all other voter-initiated amendments to the Florida Constitution.
