FLORIDA AMENDMENT 2: TOO VAGUE, TOO RISKY-----------Vote NO

 




Since 1936, the Florida Wildlife Federation has advocated for science-based wildlife-management in balance with sustainable regulation and education for hunting and fishing. The Federation is a citizen-based organization representing a diverse set of  conservationist and recreationist, from bird watchers to turkey hunters. However, the Federation is opposed to the legislature driven constitutional amendment, the Right to Hunt and Fish (Amendment 2) which will appear on the Florida 2024 election ballot.

Amendment 2 introduces unnecessary interference with the Florida Constitution and is overly vague in its language, leaving it vulnerable to misinterpretation or misuse, potentially undermining its intent.




UNNECESSARY AMENDMENT

Amendment 2 seeks to establish hunting and fishing as a constitutional right in Florida. However, the Federation emphasizes that these activities are already well-protected and guarded under current state laws, particularly Chapter 379.104 of Florida Statutes. The existing legal framework provides ample opportunities for responsible and ethical hunting and fishing, making the proposed amendment redundant. Furthermore, enshrining these activities in the state constitution could introduce legal complications, potentially leading to costly taxpayer-funded legal battles and undermining scientifically supported wildlife management practices.

"As an outdoorsman who hunts and fishes, I believe Amendment 2 is a threat Florida's wildlife and ecosystems (like the Everglades)  At a time when wildlife populations are already in serious decline, This amendment could and will undermine important conservations measures. Allowing broad, unchecked access will devastate fish populations and other species. We need to prioritize sustainable and responsible stewardship of our natural resources, not change our state constitution allowing a roll back of critical protections."  Clinton Trotta/ Federation Board Member, hunter, and angler.

In addition, the Amendment's vague preference of "traditional hunting methods"  might open the door for the return harmful and currently prohibited by law practices like the use of gill nets, which in Florida's past have had major detrimental effects on Florida's fisheries, coastal communities and their economies. 

WE'RE NOT GOING BACK FLORIDA, NO NEED TO CHANGE THE FLORIDA CONSTITUTION, IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT. 


                                           ON AMENDMENT 2....VOTE.........NO.

VOTE "YES" ON ADMENDMENT 4

 





After reviewing the wording on the Florida Amendment 4 ballot, I realized that the twisted information written is provided to confuse voters alleging negative consequences if abortion is made legal and how it will impact the state. 

The misinformation and the falsehood of this statement that there would be fewer live births of babies, an increase in abortions and the added cost to the state, including the negative impact of the state's budget is simply ludicrous and false. Since abortion was enacted 50 years ago, the states were never impacted negatively.

We should stand firm and reject by voting YES to this amendment which is so critical to women and the right to make their own decision about their reproductive rights and not have the state nor the Federal government dictating a control over their right to choose. It is a blow to our constitutional rights and our God-given free will to make our own decisions. We should repeal and rebuke this conspiracy against women and extreme ideology. 

VOTE YES ON AMENDMENT #4

SERIOUS GOVERNMENT

 

The Reagan Era is over!  

Serious government is the new Era of governing.

The widely accepted idea that serious government is inherently bad won't persist after coronavirus.

A functioning serious government is crucial for a healthy society. Success came in states where serious government, civic and private sector leaders joined their strengths together in a spirit of self-sacrifice for the common good.

Serious Government

Time to begin to promote more constructive patterns in our cultural and political discourse. Americans return to a new seriousness because serious government is a matter for serious people. Change post Covid 19 is undisputable and many challenges rely on the new administration going forward, expertise matters and Biden's Administration is the new way to build back better.

In a national crisis a recognition including those entrusted with protecting our health, preserving our liberties and overseeing our National Security-need to be staffed with experts (not political loyalists), best decisions need to be made through a reasoned policy process and predicated on evidence-based science and historical and geopolitical knowledge.  

Instead of Trump's "America First" foreign policy, we need to return to multilateral diplomacy, and to the understanding that cooperation with allies and adversaries, too-is especially necessary when it comes to dealing with global problems like climate change and viral pandemics.

Most of all, we need to remember that public trust is crucial to governance and that trust depends on telling the truth, distort nothing, and try to manipulate no one. The aftermath of the coronavirus is likely to include a new political uprising. Once the health emergency is over, we will see the extend to which rich, well-connected and well-resourced communities will have been taken care of, while contingent, poor and stigmatized communities will have been thoroughly destroyed. Moreover, political action is possible-multi trillion dollar bailouts and projects can be mobilized quickly-only if the cause is considered urgent.

This mismatch of long-disregarded populations getting unattended or dismissed, will likely have drastic consequences, and this is why Biden is prioritizing a massive Covid relief package that will include direct checks, unemployment supplement benefits, tribal and local governments, schools, vaccine distribution, infrastructure and other resources.

When the crisis ends (because it will), we will reorient our politics and make substantial new investments in public goods for health and public services. Finally, this current plague time might see a recharged commitment to a closer-to-the-bone worldview that recognizes we have a short time on earth, the clock is ticking and we need to change our approach to everyday existence, so that we don't fall in line with trump-like tyrannies and orthodoxy which are environmentally and physiologically devastating behaviors.

Therefore, living peacefully and meaningfully together is going to take much more than our day-to-day habits. America is fragile and democracy is at stake, the evilness of Trump rooted in our country for the past 4 years has debilitated and destabilize our form of serious government, it will take time to restore faith, strength and our trust in a system of serious government that works for all Americans.

GEORGIA ON MY MIND

 


Mitch McConnell was the only person holding back the Covid Relief Aid so much needed for the millions of unemployed, hospitals, businesses, local & state governments and Covid 19 resources including the distribution of vaccines to fight this raging pandemic virus, and now he blocks the $2,000 stimulus check as part of Covid-19 relief package that was signed into law on Sunday.  

Georgians, this is your chance and the only opportunity to take control of the Senate, keep voting early and let us see a massive turnout on January 5th, this is a must-have Christmas present.

More than 2.3 million people had already cast their ballot early, in person or by absentee ballot, by Tuesday morning, particularly among African American voters, and the continued engagement of younger voters, especially first time voters in their 20's registered as Democrats. 

The only way to help Biden enact important legislature and move his agenda forward including a  Covid Relief Package that's sizable to boost our ailing economy, is by having a Democratic Senate majority that sends the right message to those Republicans opposing a new Relief Aid to help all Americans survive these few months of economic instability, and most likely all of next year.

GEORGIA vote as if your lives depend on it....BECAUSE IT DOES!
