Today in Jacksonville, I signed two important bills to limit government overreach and prevent local authorities from imposing carbon taxes and discriminatory DEI mandates on Floridians.
✔️ SB 1134 prohibits counties, municipalities, contractors and grantees from using public funds to promote DEI, or maintain DEI offices or personnel. Violations will be classified as misfeasance or malfeasance in office, and residents will be able to take civil action.
✔️ HB 1217 prevents state and local governments from adopting, enforcing, or funding “net-zero” greenhouse gas policies, including carbon taxes and emissions trading programs.
We are keeping the pedal to the metal!
