CHAIRMAN'S
MESSAGE
Governor DeSantis Re-Establishes
Florida State Guard
On
Wednesday, Governor DeSantis announced the re-establishment of the
Florida State Guard and introduced retired Marine Corps Lieutenant
Colonel Chris Graham as the new director of the emergency-focused
civilian volunteer force.
By
reestablishing the Florida State Guard, the state is expanding its
ability to help people in times of need or disaster. Florida joins 22
other states and territories with state-level defense forces.and will
add 400 members able to respond in a projected active hurricane
season. More than 1,200 individuals have already expressed interest in
joining.
“The U.S.
military has been kicking out great service members over the Biden
administration’s unacceptable COVID vaccine mandate, and they are even
targeting members of the National Guard,” Governor DeSantis said. “The
bureaucrats in D.C. who control our National Guard have also refused
to increase the number of guardsmen despite our increasing population,
leaving Florida with the second worst National Guardsman to resident
ratio.”

Attorney General Moody
Demands President Biden Stop Using School Lunches for Political
Purposes
Attorney
General Moody is demanding President Joe Biden withdraw a new
directive that threatens to deny much-needed food programs to
school-aged children. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s recent memo
expanding federal law to include gender identity and sexual
orientation in schools imposes unlawful regulatory measures on state
agencies and operators.
“Using
hungry children to advance a political agenda is appalling but not
surprising given the way this administration has thumbed its nose at
federal law and convention,” Attorney General Moody said. “We will not
allow Joe Biden to threaten the health and wellbeing of Florida
students.”

CFO Patronis Says Biden
Finger-Pointing is Failing on Inflation
Florida
Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis pointed out that there are real
actions that the Biden Administration could take to reduce
inflationary pressures, but won’t pursue any of them.
“As the
poor and middle class continue having their savings siphoned away by
historic inflation, the Biden Administration’s strategy of finger
pointing has yet to deliver any results for anyone in the country,”
CFO Patronis said. “There are millions of ways the federal government
could reduce costs on American families by cutting regulations,
supporting America’s energy sector, and addressing ongoing supply
chain issues. Unfortunately, the Biden Administration is made of
career bureaucrats who have never had to deal with signing paychecks,
or starting and running a business.”
The U.S.
Labor Department reported late last week that inflation hit 8.6% in
May — the highest rate in 40 years. Under Governor DeSantis and
Republicans in the Legislature, Florida is taking action, including
the $200 million gas tax cut.
