FAC Call To Action. Stop SB 1226
News on Florida Sex Offender Registry
ATTENTION ALL Members and Supporters
Our legislators, republican and democrats alike, refuse to recognize the empirical data regarding sex offender policy. All they continue to do is pass “feel good” legislation, which does nothing for public safety nor stop the cycle of abuse.
DEMAND EDUCATED AND INORMED POLICY! ASK FOR THE EVIDENCE WHICH THEY BASED A NEED TO CHANGE THE EXISTING POLICY!!!!
SB1226 is being read for the second time by the Senate, which is just the precursor to the third reading and floor vote to move forward another piece of legislation to make your existence more stressful, in many cases it will be impossible to comply.
This bill changes the definition of “temporary residence from 5-days to just 3-days. It also adds mandatory electronic monitoring and minimum terms of community control for registration violations.
It punishes those who seek to visit family, do business or vacation in our state just for being required to register for a PAST offense, whether you live here or not.

CALL EVERYONE IN THE SENATE AND TELL THEM TO VOTE NO!!!
This is based on nothing! Its sole purpose is to punish those required to register and to create another trap to put people back into prison for non-crimes!

I also E-mailed all of them on the list that FAC provided. I did notice all the E-mails were Web E-mails not personal ones, so lets hope it actually gets to them to read and consider.
where the hell are all their emails…??
Emailed all of them. Hope everyone else reading this does the same.
sent
I will begin sending a similar letter to each representative in Reference to HB1301.
We need to get more involved and let our voices be heard since most of us have lost the civil right to vote.
I have emailed the letter below taken from your provided info and emailed it to every Florida Senator. I would encourage all to do the same.
Let the Senators know that we have a voice even though we may not be able to vote YET!
All Florida State Senators,
Ref: SB1226
It seems that all of our legislators refuse to recognize the empirical data regarding sex offender policy. They continue to pass “feel good” legislation, which does nothing for public safety nor stop the cycle of abuse.
We the People DEMAND educated and informed policy! We ask for the evidence which they based a need to change the existing policy?
