Children are already starving to death and being displaced worldwide because of DOGE dismantling USAID

If DOGE fails to cut off all appropriations and earmarks to SORNA, then we’ll all know what we’ve being saying for years – the registry is just a reelection campaign tool and not a public safety one.

Kids starving in other countries – cool

Mothers being denied knowing where PFT’s live – outrageous!

Contact attorney Ron Kleiner. His information is on our Attorney Referrals page or you can request it from info@floridaactioncommittee.org. He’s done and won more of these than anyone we know.

I’m coming up on 25 years from my sentencing on a charge that qualifies for removal from the registry. (I got drunk on a spring break vacation in the late 90s and ended up with a charge for performing a lewd act within view of a minor).

I don’t live nor have ever lived in Florida, and I never was required to register under the laws of two states where I’ve lived since my sentencing in Florida. Still, I’m listed on the Florida website … but with no updates since my sentencing (to only probation – 3 years, adjudication withheld).

I understand that it’s best to hire a lawyer for these sorts of proceedings, which of course would entail a cost. But my question is, would this be an investment with fairly good odds of success? I had a successful career in IT with no offenses of any sort since. I’ve been recognized with awards for substantial contributions and accomplishments in my field.

Has anyone had experience with these petitions? Even if you haven’t had direct experience I’d appreciate any feedback based on knowledge of the process and of the prospects for success or failure.

Thank you again.

How many actual PFR are actually supervised in the public? 27k yet Florida is receiving funding based on 80k. hmmmm

This is a direction FAC needs to address with Legislators ASAP.

Connie, you make an excellent suggestion. I’m working on sending this to DOGE and DeSantis’ version of DOGE. Let’s get everyone who is affected by the SORNA to do it!

Florida is one of few states that doesn’t have a tiered system.
