Governor, let’s make that $200,000. Amendment 4 takes away parental consent for minors AND allows partial birth AND tax payer funded abortions.
Thanks to
@AshleyMoodyFL
@JimmyPatronis
and
@WiltonSimpson
for each pledging $100k to combat Amendment 4.
Glad to see the entire Florida cabinet united against this deceitful and dangerous Soros-backed amendment!

The bravery exhibited by Rachel and others should serve as an example to all in the process. They deserve honor for their unwavering strength and courage in the face of fear and intimidation. May their actions also serve as a siren to men who seek to harass women. It must stop.

1st DCA has a strong record of sound rulings on matters of importance to FL. The rights of parents are foundational. It’s why we passed, and Gov. DeSantis signed, strong legislation to protect those rights this session. The bar should be high for govt to impact parental choice.

This lawsuit is ridiculous. Lab-grown ‘meat’ is not proven to be safe enough for consumers and it is being pushed by a liberal agenda to shut down farms. Food security is a matter of national security, and our farmers are the first line of defense.

Florida’s farmers stood on the front line of this pandemic to ensure a safe, abundant food supply. Many of them donated truckloads of food to Floridians who needed it most. I am a proud farmer and humbled to receive this recognition from some of Florida’s finest.
