SB 234 – WE NEED PRESENCE IN TALLAHASSEE!!!
For those who didn’t watch the Senate Judiciary Meeting today, SB234 made it through. Senator Book gave her pitch, never mentioning the change in definition to “part of a day” and NOBODY showed up to oppose it. The next stop is the Senate Rules Committee and we NEED, NEED, NEED people to show up to speak out in opposition. We MUST put our objections on the record.
Anybody in or near Tallahassee who would be willing to speak out against this bill, please contact [email protected]. We need to do a better job at the next stop.

Thanks to Duval FAC Member for the catch.
ANY member of the public can read our statement into the record. They do not need to be an attorney or professional spokesperson.
I can find no Tallahassee nor Leon County restrictions on registered persons other than state law. So a registered person or persons could appear for a statement, but I think the issue is credibility.
Given that registered persons were the first to get doxed and cancelled by society, our words carry little weight, in my opinion.
@JZ: So who then is representing our interests in this matter? When issues like this come up and we need a credible spokesperson, how can we rectify that?
@Ben, those are questions I cannot factually answer. I defer them to FAC Admin.
Why are we taught to fear witches, and not the ones who burn them alive?!!
FAC…
The Bottom Line, is that FAC needs Attorneys to Speak Directly to Those!
A Person Forced to Register, Speaking, WILL NOT CUT THE MUSTARD!

There are 2000 plus members…let each of us put in a $1, I am sure We can find someone…..two thousand bucks for a Legal Eagles Time!
Why pay an attorney to read a statement that any one of us could read for free.
Why would you say “in or near Tallahassee?” I think you need anyone that can afford the trip. Also, when does this happen?
I ask this because I have been on the registry more than 10 years, and have been discriminated by many who I have to show my license to. Once when I had a simple blood test done, I was left with a bruise on my entire forearm.i cant prove it, but it is something I’ve not heard talked about. I would gladly speak at this event if given a date. I live in hernando county.
@James: It appears to be on or about March 2, 2021, but there is no guarantee it will happen on that date. That’s when Florida Senate is back in session.
