🛑 Bills We Need to Stop Email & Call Scripts

Copy a script, personalize one sentence, and send it or read it on the phone. Use your city + ZIP so offices treat it as a constituent message.

Why committee calls matter: Committees are the gatekeepers—most bills live or die before a full House or Senate vote. When a bill is on a committee agenda, calls right before the meeting are the most time-sensitive and influential.

Next Up: Committee & Floor Action (Week of Feb 9)

Time-sensitive. Use the committee member links where provided and contact members before the next hearing. If a date/time is TBD, it means it has not been posted on the official calendar yet—check again daily.

NEXT UP: HB 429 — Criteria for Determining Criminal Gang Membership (Now: In Messages)

Status update: committee substitute has moved; currently listed as In Messages. Watch for calendar placement.

Act Now Next Up Florida House Civil Rights

Status: In Messages (date/time TBD)
Action: Contact your House member and urge a NO vote if/when it is calendared.

Subject: Vote NO on HB 429

I’m urging you to vote NO on HB 429.

HB 429 would expand how law enforcement can designate someone as a “gang member,” including by citing “gang-related language” on social media. This risks overreach, mislabeling, and discriminatory enforcement and can have life-altering consequences in charging and sentencing.

Please vote NO on HB 429 and protect due process and civil liberties.

NEXT UP: HB 485 — “Marriage fraud” injunction + immigration reporting (Next: Justice Appropriations)

Status update: committee substitute adopted; next stop is Justice Appropriations Subcommittee (hearing TBD).

Act Now Next Up Florida House Courts Immigration

Next committee: Justice Appropriations Subcommittee (date/time TBD)
Action: Call/email members ahead of the hearing and urge a NO vote.

Subject: Vote NO on HB 485

I’m urging you to vote NO on HB 485.

HB 485 would allow a domestic violence injunction against a spouse based on an allegation of “marriage fraud,” and then require courts to immediately alert immigration authorities. This invites misuse in messy disputes and turns civil injunctions into an immigration reporting pipeline.

Domestic violence protections should focus on safety and evidence-based standards, not expand into immigration enforcement.

Please vote NO on HB 485.

NEXT UP: HB 1551 — Limit lawsuits re: alleged “uncommanded discharge” (Next: State Affairs)

Status update: now in House State Affairs Committee (hearing TBD).

Act Now Next Up Florida House Courts

Next committee: House State Affairs Committee (date/time TBD)
Action: Contact members before the hearing and urge a NO vote.

Subject: Vote NO on HB 1551

I’m urging you to vote NO on HB 1551.

HB 1551 would make it harder for injured people and families to hold a gun manufacturer accountable when a pistol allegedly fires without a trigger pull. When a product fails in a way that can kill or seriously injure someone, Floridians should be able to seek accountability through the courts.

Please vote NO on HB 1551.

NEXT UP: SB 838 — Add “processing fees” for electronic loan payments (Now: Rules)

Status update: SB 838 is now in the Senate Rules Committee (hearing TBD).

Act Now Next Up Florida Senate Consumer

Next committee: Senate Rules (date/time TBD)
Action: Contact committee members and urge a NO vote.

Subject: Vote NO on SB 838

I’m urging you to vote NO on SB 838.

SB 838 would allow auto lenders to add “processing fees” when borrowers make payments by credit card or other electronic methods. This creates a junk-fee pathway that punishes people for paying on time using modern payment systems.

Please vote NO on SB 838 and protect consumers from unnecessary add-on fees.

NEXT UP: SB 1236 — Restrict union neutrality/voluntary recognition (Now: GOA)

Status update: passed Commerce & Tourism; now in Governmental Oversight & Accountability (GOA) (hearing TBD).

Act Now Next Up Florida Senate Labor

Next committee: Senate GOA (date/time TBD)
Action: Contact committee members and urge a NO vote.

Subject: Vote NO on SB 1236

I’m urging you to vote NO on SB 1236.

SB 1236 would prohibit companies receiving state incentives from voluntarily recognizing a union or agreeing to remain neutral during a union election. This is government interference that tips the scale against workers—especially at companies benefiting from public dollars.

Please vote NO on SB 1236.

NEXT UP: SB 1296 — Public worker union restrictions (Postponed; still in GOA)

Status update: postponed in GOA; watch for rescheduling (date/time TBD).

Act Now Next Up Florida Senate Labor

Status: Postponed in GOA (date/time TBD)
Action: Contact GOA members anyway—postponed bills often return with short notice.

Subject: Vote NO on SB 1296

I’m asking you to vote NO on SB 1296.

SB 1296 would make it harder for teachers, clerks, bus drivers, and other public-sector workers to unionize and advocate for safe working conditions and fair pay. This weakens essential services by increasing turnover and silencing the people who keep our communities running.

Please vote NO on SB 1296.

NEXT UP: SB 1334 — Elections & Voter Registration Changes (Next: ATD)

Status update: passed Senate Ethics & Elections (5–2); next committee is ATD, then Rules (hearing TBD).

Act Now Next Up Florida Senate Voting

Last action: Passed Ethics & Elections (5–2) on Feb 4, 2026
Next committee: Appropriations Committee on Transportation, Tourism, and Economic Development (ATD) (date/time TBD)
Action: Contact committee members before the hearing and urge a NO vote.

Subject: Vote NO on SB 1334 — Protect access to voter registration

I am urging you to vote NO on SB 1334.

SB 1334 makes significant changes to Florida’s election and voter registration laws that risk creating new barriers for eligible voters. Requiring citizenship verification through DHSMV before an online registration can even be reviewed by a Supervisor of Elections increases the risk of errors, delays, and wrongful rejections.

The bill also alters voter registration oath language and allows retroactive changes to voter records, creating uncertainty and the potential for eligible voters to be flagged or removed without clear notice.

Florida should be strengthening access to accurate and secure voter registration—not adding bureaucratic obstacles that disproportionately impact students, seniors, naturalized citizens, and voters who have recently moved or changed their names.

Please vote NO on SB 1334 and protect Floridians’ freedom to register and vote.

Florida House Bills (HB) — Sorted by Bill Number

Use these scripts to contact your Florida House member (and your Florida Senator if you want to weigh in early on the Senate side too).

Act Now: HB 105 — Businesses can sue to block local ordinances

Empowers businesses to sue to stop cities/counties from enforcing local rules. (Passed House Intergovernmental Affairs Subcommittee 12–0)

Act Now Florida House Local Control

Harm: Undermines local democracy and invites intimidation lawsuits against community standards.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Protects businesses from inconsistent local rules across jurisdictions.
  • Creates a faster way to challenge ordinances they view as unlawful.

Concerns

  • Chills local problem-solving by inviting costly lawsuits.
  • Shifts power away from voters/cities and toward well-funded litigants.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 105 — Protect local control and community standards

HB 105 would empower businesses to sue in order to stop local governments from enforcing local rules and ordinances.

This undermines local democracy and makes it harder for communities to address real local needs—from safety and consumer protections to quality-of-life rules.

Please oppose HB 105 and defend the ability of cities and counties to govern locally, transparently, and in the public interest.

Act Now: HB 167 — Shield for Phosphate Mining Companies

Supporters say

  • Provides clearer liability rules for redevelopment and business certainty.

  • Weakens incentives for responsible cleanup and transparency.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 167 — Do not shield phosphate mining companies from accountability

I am writing as a Florida resident to urge you to oppose HB 167.

HB 167 makes it harder for Floridians to hold phosphate mining companies accountable for radiation exposure and contamination risks on redeveloped land. Families should not lose their right to seek justice when they are harmed—especially when the harms involve long-term health risks and environmental contamination.

Please oppose HB 167 and protect Floridians’ right to accountability, transparency, and safety.

Act Now: HB 173 — Parental permission for birth control & STI treatment

  • Reduces medical privacy and can deter teens from seeking care at all.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 173 — Protect teen health and medical privacy

I am writing as a Florida resident to urge you to oppose HB 173.

HB 173 would block teens from accessing birth control and STI testing/treatment without parental permission. This risks teen health, increases preventable infections and unintended pregnancies, and undermines medical privacy.

Please oppose HB 173.

Act Now: HB 221 — Sub-minimum wages for apprentices/interns

Allows employers to pay less than minimum wage to apprentices, interns, and similar roles. (Passed House Industries & Professional Activities Subcommittee 11–6)

Act Now Florida House Workers

Harm: Invites exploitation by creating a loophole to underpay people doing real work.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Encourages training/apprenticeships by lowering initial labor costs.
  • They argue it expands entry-level opportunities for young workers.

Concerns

  • Creates an underpayment loophole for real work labeled “training.”
  • Can depress wages and increase exploitation, especially for vulnerable workers.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 221 — Do not weaken Florida’s minimum wage protections

HB 221 would allow employers to pay less than minimum wage to apprentices, interns, and similar workers.

That invites exploitation and turns “training” into a loophole to underpay people doing real work. Please oppose HB 221 and protect Florida’s minimum wage standards.

Act Now: HB 377 — Tobacco tax carve-out for heated products (IQOS)

Exempts heated tobacco products from state tobacco taxes.

Act Now Florida House Health

Harm: Corporate carve-out that can increase youth nicotine access and lower state revenue.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Treats heated tobacco differently than cigarettes for tax policy.
  • They argue it could reduce use of combustible products.

Concerns

  • Corporate carve-out that can increase access and marketing to youth.
  • Reduces public revenue while keeping nicotine products cheaper.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 377 — No tobacco tax carve-out for heated products

HB 377 would exempt heated tobacco products from Florida’s tobacco taxes—a special carve-out that benefits major tobacco corporations such as Philip Morris (IQOS).

Florida should not make nicotine products cheaper or easier to market through tax loopholes. Please oppose HB 377.

Act Now: HB 399 — Weakens restriction meant to slow suburban sprawl

Eliminates a key development restriction meant to slow suburban sprawl. (Passed House Intergovernmental Affairs Subcommittee 10–3)

Act Now Florida House Growth

Harm: Can accelerate sprawl, increase infrastructure costs, and worsen flooding/traffic.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Increases housing supply by making development easier.
  • They argue it reduces red tape and speeds growth.

Concerns

  • Can accelerate sprawl and raise long-term infrastructure costs.
  • Worsens flooding/traffic when growth outpaces planning.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 399 — Don’t accelerate sprawl and infrastructure costs

HB 399 would eliminate a key development restriction meant to slow suburban sprawl.

Sprawl can push growth outward without adequate infrastructure, increasing long-term costs for roads, drainage, schools, and emergency services while worsening traffic and flood risk.

Please oppose HB 399 and support responsible planning that protects communities and taxpayers.

Act Now: HB 691 — Easier subdivisions on farmland near urban areas

Makes it easier to develop residential subdivisions on farmland next to urbanized areas. (Passed House Intergovernmental Affairs Subcommittee 13–0)

Act Now Florida House Growth

Harm: Risks sprawl and water/infrastructure strain if local planning authority is weakened.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Expands housing supply near urban areas by easing development rules.
  • They argue it supports property rights and economic growth.

Concerns

  • Weakens local planning safeguards around water, roads, schools, stormwater.
  • Can convert farmland and push sprawl without adequate infrastructure.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 691 — Protect farmland, water, and responsible growth

HB 691 would make it easier to develop residential subdivisions on farmland next to urbanized areas.

Florida’s growth must be planned with water supply, flooding, transportation, and public services in mind. Weakening safeguards can accelerate sprawl and increase taxpayer costs.

Please oppose HB 691 or amend it to preserve meaningful local planning authority and infrastructure protections.

Act Now: HB 693 — New Medicaid/KidsCare + SNAP hurdles

Adds eligibility restrictions and paperwork requirements for Medicaid/KidsCare and food assistance (SNAP). (Passed House Health Care Facilities & Systems Subcommittee 12–4)

Act Now Florida House Health

Harm: Paperwork barriers often cut eligible families off care and food support.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Targets fraud/waste by tightening eligibility checks and documentation.
  • They argue it ensures benefits go only to qualified recipients.

Concerns

  • Paperwork barriers often cut off eligible families (kids, seniors, disabled people).
  • Increases administrative burden and delays access to care/food.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 693 — Don’t add barriers to healthcare and food assistance

HB 693 would impose new eligibility restrictions for Medicaid and KidsCare and add additional paperwork requirements for SNAP.

Administrative hurdles often cause eligible families to lose coverage or food assistance. Please oppose HB 693 and protect access to healthcare and basic nutrition support for eligible Floridians.

  • Politicizes decisions that should be local and practical.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 919 — Keep airport naming decisions local

HB 919 would remove local authority to name major airports and impose a state-directed rename of Palm Beach International Airport.

Subject: HB 981 — Please support a science-based plan for the Ocklawaha River

HB 981 requires DEP to prepare a plan to breach Rodman Dam and restore the natural flow of the Ocklawaha River.

I support a transparent, science-based process that evaluates ecological restoration, water quality, habitat, recreation, and long-term public benefits with meaningful public input.

Please support HB 981 and ensure the plan is rigorous and transparent.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Increases oversight and reduces what they view as union “special treatment.”
  • They argue it improves transparency and accountability.

Concerns

  • Weakens workers’ freedom of association and bargaining power.
  • Can worsen staffing shortages and turnover in essential public jobs.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 995 — Protect workers’ right to organize

HB 995 would make it harder for many public-sector workers—including teachers, clerks, and bus drivers—to unionize and maintain representation.

Workers’ ability to organize is a basic democratic right that supports safe workplaces and stable services. Please oppose HB 995.

Act Now: HB 1071 — Requires schools to show an anti-abortion cartoon (6th grade+)

Requires public schools to show an anti-abortion cartoon in health education beginning in sixth grade. (Passed House PreK-12 Budget Subcommittee 12–3)

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Promotes a specific viewpoint they believe discourages abortion.
  • Creates statewide uniformity in certain health instruction content.

Concerns

  • Politicizes health education instead of using medically accurate, balanced curriculum.
  • Mandates content rather than allowing professional, age-appropriate instruction choices.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 1071 — Keep health education medically accurate and age-appropriate

HB 1071 would require public schools to show students an anti-abortion cartoon as part of health education beginning in sixth grade.

Health education should be medically accurate and age-appropriate—not political messaging. Please oppose HB 1071.

Act Now: HB 1119 — Forced book bans without considering merit

Act Now Florida House Education

  • Creates a stricter, uniform process for handling challenges.

Concerns

  • Supercharges censorship by forbidding consideration of literary/artistic merit.
  • Undermines educator/librarian review and chills honest education.

HB 1119 would forbid school districts from considering a book’s literary or artistic merit when responding to challenges. This replaces thoughtful review with censorship pressure.

Please oppose HB 1119 and protect honest education and students’ access to age-appropriate literature.

Act Now: HB 1139 — Shifts developers’ attorney fees onto local taxpayers

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Prioritizes Florida residents at top public universities.
  • They argue it protects taxpayer-funded seats for in-state students.

Concerns

  • Out-of-state students can support tuition revenue; a cap can affect budgets/programs.
  • Blunt limits may reduce competitiveness and diversity without nuanced planning.
Subject: HB 1279 — Please consider impacts on university quality and finances

HB 1279 would cap out-of-state freshmen admissions at 5% at UF and other top public universities.

If Florida changes admissions policy, it should be done with careful analysis of financial impacts, academic competitiveness, research capacity, and campus diversity—not a blunt instrument.

Please ensure any action is evidence-based and protects university excellence while prioritizing Floridians.

Act Now: HB 1421 — Lease conservation lands for cattle grazing

Studies feasibility of grazing on conservation lands and leases feasible lands to private cattle companies. (Passed House Natural Resources & Disasters Subcommittee 16–2)

Act Now Florida House Environment

Harm: Risks ecological impacts and shifts public conservation lands toward private commercial use.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Could generate revenue from leases and manage vegetation/fuels in some areas.
  • They argue grazing can be a land management tool if controlled.

Concerns

  • Risks ecological damage and shifts conservation lands toward private commercial use.
  • Conflicts with habitat/water protection goals if oversight isn’t strict and enforceable.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 1421 — Keep conservation lands for conservation

HB 1421 would direct agencies to study cattle grazing on conservation lands and lease lands deemed feasible to private cattle companies.

Conservation lands are managed to protect habitat, water resources, and public benefit. Expanding private grazing risks ecological impacts and undermines conservation purpose.

Please oppose HB 1421 or ensure conservation protections remain primary and enforceable.

HB 1461 — Framework for advanced nuclear reactors

Establishes a regulatory framework authorizing deployment of advanced nuclear reactors. (Passed House Economic Infrastructure 15–0)

Florida House Energy

Action: If you support/oppose, ask for rigorous independent safety review and transparent oversight.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Supports new energy options and grid reliability planning.
  • They argue advanced reactors could be lower-carbon than fossil fuels.

Concerns

  • Safety, waste handling, cost overruns, and emergency planning need strong oversight.
  • Frameworks can move faster than public review if transparency isn’t built in.
Subject: HB 1461 — Please ensure safety, transparency, and strong oversight

HB 1461 establishes a regulatory framework authorizing deployment of advanced nuclear reactors.

Any move toward new reactor technologies must include rigorous independent safety review, clear waste handling plans, strong emergency planning, and transparent public oversight.

Act Now: HB 1471 — State designation of “domestic terrorist organizations”

Empowers state authorities to designate and sanction “domestic terrorist organizations.” (Passed House Civil Justice & Claims 14–3)

Act Now Florida House Civil Liberties

Harm: High risk of political misuse without strict due process, clear standards, and transparency.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Creates tools to disrupt violent extremist organizations.
  • They argue it helps law enforcement prevent coordinated threats.

Concerns

  • High risk of political misuse without strict standards, transparency, and due process.
  • Can chill lawful protest, association, and speech if definitions are broad.
Subject: Vote NO on HB 1471 — Protect civil liberties and due process

HB 1471 would empower state authorities to designate and sanction “domestic terrorist organizations.”

Any system that labels groups and triggers penalties must include strong due process, clear standards, transparency, and safeguards against political misuse. Without that, it risks chilling lawful speech and association.

Please oppose HB 1471 or demand robust protections that prevent overreach.

Act Now Florida Senate Justice

Harm: Mandatory sentencing removes judicial discretion and can produce unjust outcomes.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Creates stronger deterrence and signals protection for law enforcement.
  • They argue harsh penalties match the seriousness of the harm.

Concerns

  • Mandatory sentencing removes judicial discretion and can create unjust outcomes.
  • One-size-fits-all penalties ignore circumstances and evidence nuances.
Subject: Vote NO on SB 156 — Reject mandatory life sentencing

SB 156 would mandate life sentences for anyone convicted of manslaughter who inadvertently kills a police officer.

Mandatory life sentencing removes judicial discretion and ignores circumstances. Florida’s laws should allow judges to consider facts and evidence—not impose one-size-fits-all punishments.

Please oppose SB 156.

Act Now: SB 164 — “Personhood” for fertilized eggs; lawsuits from conception

Grants fertilized eggs legal rights similar to living children and invites lawsuits over pregnancy loss/termination. (Passed Senate CCJA 5–3)

  • Invites lawsuits and surveillance into private healthcare.
Subject: Vote NO on SB 164 — Protect IVF, miscarriage care, and medical privacy

SB 164 would grant fertilized eggs legal rights similar to living children and invite lawsuits from the moment of conception.

This threatens IVF, miscarriage management, and care for pregnancy complications by injecting legal risk into medical decisions.

Please oppose SB 164 and protect evidence-based reproductive healthcare and privacy.

Act Now: SB 290 — “Big Sugar” defamation expansion

Makes it easier for sugar companies to sue environmental groups, news organizations, and food-safety advocates. (Temporarily postponed by Senate Rules)

  • Gives businesses more tools to address reputational harm from false claims.
  • They argue it deters irresponsible accusations.

Concerns

  • Chills speech by enabling powerful interests to threaten critics with expensive litigation.
  • Can intimidate journalists and watchdog groups even when they’re right.
Subject: Vote NO on SB 290 — Protect free speech and watchdog accountability

SB 290 would make it easier for powerful sugar companies to sue environmental groups, journalists, and food-safety advocates for defamation.

This invites intimidation lawsuits that can silence criticism and discourage public-interest reporting. Please oppose SB 290.

Act Now: SB 332 — Secret settlement talks under Bert Harris claims

Expands closed-door meetings between property-owner attorneys and local governments to discuss settlements. (Passed Senate Judiciary 10–0)

  • They argue it speeds resolution and protects negotiating strategy.

Concerns

  • Weakens sunshine oversight in deals that can affect taxpayers and zoning.
  • Reduces transparency when public assets and policy are on the line.
Subject: Vote NO on SB 332 — Keep public settlement discussions transparent

SB 332 would expand the ability of attorneys and governments to meet in secret to discuss settlements under Bert Harris claims.

When negotiations can affect taxpayers and community planning, the public deserves transparency. Please oppose SB 332 and protect sunshine principles.

  • Needs strong safeguards (limits, age enforcement, consumer protections).
Subject: SB 530 — Please prioritize safeguards before expanding lottery vending purchases

SB 530 would allow debit cards to be used to buy lottery tickets from vending machines.

Making gambling frictionless can increase impulsive purchases. If Florida expands access, it should include strong safeguards and consumer protections.

Please oppose SB 530 or amend it to add meaningful safeguards.

Act Now: SB 706 — State takes airport naming power; renames PBI

Act Now: SB 948 — “Starter Homes Act” (major local zoning overrides)

Forces higher density on lots with water/sewer and limits tools like height/setbacks/parking/lot size. (Passed Senate Community Affairs 7–1)

Act Now Florida Senate Growth

Concern: Affordability matters, but sweeping overrides can ignore infrastructure and neighborhood context.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Boosts housing supply by limiting local barriers to building.
  • They argue it addresses affordability through more units.

Concerns

  • Sweeping state overrides can ignore infrastructure capacity and local safety context.
  • Reduces tools communities use to manage stormwater, traffic, and neighborhood fit.
Subject: SB 948 — Please protect local planning and infrastructure needs

SB 948 (“Starter Homes Act”) would force higher density and make it harder for communities to manage it through height, setbacks, parking, and lot-size rules.

Florida needs more affordable housing, but state overrides must not ignore infrastructure capacity, stormwater, traffic, and neighborhood safety.

Please oppose SB 948 as written or amend it to preserve meaningful local planning authority and infrastructure standards.

Act Now: SB 1038 — Invest taxpayer reserves in cryptocurrency (rules)

Establishes rules for a reserve fund to invest taxpayer money in cryptocurrency. (Passed Senate Banking & Insurance 10–0)

Act Now Florida Senate Finance

Harm: Exposes public reserves to speculative volatility and fraud risk.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Explores diversification and potential upside for reserves.
  • They argue rules can manage risk and create structure.

Concerns

  • Fraud/security risks can shift losses to taxpayers.
Subject: Vote NO on SB 1038 — Do not invest taxpayer funds in cryptocurrency

SB 1038 would establish rules for a state reserve fund that invests taxpayer money in cryptocurrency.

Crypto markets are volatile and have a long record of fraud and extreme price swings. Public funds exist for stability—not speculation.

Please oppose SB 1038 and keep Florida’s public reserves invested conservatively and transparently.

Act Now: SB 1040 — Creates a cryptocurrency reserve fund

Creates the cryptocurrency reserve fund. (Passed Senate Banking & Insurance 10–0)

Act Now Florida Senate Finance

Harm: Creates a mechanism to expose state reserves to unnecessary risk.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Creates a formal mechanism for a crypto reserve strategy.
  • They argue it positions Florida as “innovation-friendly.”

Concerns

  • Normalizes speculative exposure for public money.
  • Risk management is hard when markets swing sharply and rapidly.
Subject: Vote NO on SB 1040 — Reject a state cryptocurrency reserve fund

SB 1040 would create a cryptocurrency reserve fund.

This exposes public reserves to speculative volatility and risks losses that ultimately fall on taxpayers. Please oppose SB 1040.

Act Now: SB 1512 — Expands Space Florida tax breaks

Expands tax breaks for aerospace/defense and other companies through Space Florida. (Passed Senate MVSD 4–0)

Act Now Florida Senate Finance

Concern: Tax breaks should include transparency, performance metrics, and clawbacks.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Attracts aerospace/defense investment and jobs.
  • They argue incentives strengthen Florida’s space economy.

Concerns

  • Tax breaks without strong metrics/clawbacks can become giveaways.
  • Transparency and performance accountability are essential for public trust.
Subject: SB 1512 — Require accountability and transparency for corporate tax breaks

SB 1512 would expand tax breaks that aerospace, defense, and other companies can receive through Space Florida.

If Florida offers subsidies, taxpayers deserve transparency, performance metrics, and enforceable clawbacks if promised jobs or investments do not materialize.

Please oppose SB 1512 as written or amend it to require strong public accountability.

Act Now: SB 1628 — Blocks local climate and green energy policies

Prevents communities from reducing greenhouse gas emissions and eliminates local green energy policies already in place. (Passed Senate ENR 5–3)

Act Now Florida Senate Environment

Harm: Strips local tools to address climate risk, resilience, and energy choices.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Prevents a patchwork of local rules and protects statewide uniformity.
  • They argue it shields residents/businesses from costly mandates.

Concerns

  • Strips local tools to address climate risk, resilience, and energy choices.
  • Blocks communities from responding to flooding/heat/insurance pressures locally.
Subject: Vote NO on SB 1628 — Let communities address climate risk and energy policy

SB 1628 would prevent communities from implementing policies meant to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change, and it would eliminate local green energy policies already on the books.

Florida communities face real climate and resilience challenges. Local governments need flexibility to plan and protect residents. Please oppose SB 1628.

Act Now: SB 1756 — “Conscience” vaccine opt-out + OTC ivermectin with immunity

Allows broad vaccine opt-outs for public school students and lets pharmacies sell ivermectin without a prescription with lawsuit immunity. (Passed Senate Health Policy 6–4)

Act Now Florida Senate Health

Harm: Undermines public health safeguards and removes accountability for harms.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Expands parental choice around school immunizations.
  • Increases access to certain medications they believe should be easier to obtain.

Concerns

  • Weaker immunization rules can increase outbreak risk in schools.
  • OTC ivermectin + immunity reduces accountability for harmful outcomes.
Subject: Vote NO on SB 1756 — Protect public health and medical accountability

SB 1756 would allow parents to bypass school immunization requirements for reasons of “conscience,” and would allow ivermectin sales without a prescription while granting immunity from lawsuits over negative health effects.

Weakening vaccination requirements increases outbreak risk and puts vulnerable children at risk. Please oppose SB 1756.

Act Now: Oppose Partisan Redistricting in Florida

Urge fair, constitutional maps that don’t favor a party or incumbents.

Act Now Florida Voting

How to use: Copy the script and send it or read it. Include your city + ZIP.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters of fair maps say

  • Districts should reflect communities, not parties or incumbents.
  • Transparency builds legitimacy and reduces lawsuits.

Concerns when maps are partisan

  • Gerrymanders dilute votes and reduce competitive elections.
  • Communities can be split for political advantage.
Subject: Oppose partisan redistricting in Florida

I am writing as a Florida voter to express my strong opposition to the current redistricting efforts underway in our state.

Redistricting should serve voters—not political parties or those already in power. Florida’s Constitution is clear that districts must not be drawn to favor or disfavor a political party or incumbent and must respect communities of interest.

I urge you to oppose any redistricting plan that prioritizes political gain over fair representation and instead support transparent, constitutional maps that reflect Florida’s diverse communities.

Oppose the SAVE Act — Protect the Freedom to Vote

Urge Congress to oppose the SAVE Act, which would create new barriers to voter registration and participation.

Act Now Federal Voting

How to use: Copy the script and paste it or read it. Include your city + ZIP.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters say

  • Strengthens eligibility verification and voter list integrity.
  • They argue it boosts confidence in elections.

Concerns

  • Document requirements can block eligible voters who lack easy access to papers.
  • Disproportionate impact on seniors, students, rural voters, and name changes.
Subject: Oppose the SAVE Act — Protect the freedom to vote

I am writing as a constituent to urge you to oppose the so-called SAVE Act.

While presented as an election security measure, the SAVE Act would create significant new barriers to voter registration for millions of eligible Americans. Requiring specific citizenship documents to register or update registration would disproportionately harm seniors, students, rural voters, married women who have changed their names, and working people who do not have ready access to these documents.

There is no evidence of widespread non-citizen voting that would justify these restrictions. Instead, the SAVE Act would disenfranchise eligible voters and undermine the fundamental right to vote.

Please oppose the SAVE Act and reject any legislation that restricts lawful voter registration or participation.

ICE Out For Good: Use DHS Funding to Rein in ICE (Immigration Oversight)

Urge FY2026 DHS limits: no increased ICE/CBP funding without real restrictions, transparency, and accountability.

Act Now Federal Immigration

How to use: Copy the script and paste it or read it. Include your city + ZIP.

Quick explainer: supporters say vs concerns

Supporters of oversight say

  • Funding should come with enforceable rules, transparency, and limits.
  • Accountability improves public trust and reduces abuse.

Concerns without guardrails

  • More funding without constraints can expand harmful practices.
  • Weak oversight makes misconduct harder to detect or correct.
Subject: Refuse DHS funding that fails to rein in ICE and Border Patrol (FY2026)

I urge you to refuse to vote for any appropriations bill for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that fails to rein in ICE and Border Patrol and protect our communities.

The killing of Renee Good in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026 underscores what happens when federal immigration enforcement operates without meaningful restrictions and accountability. Congress must use the appropriations process to set enforceable limits before approving any funding.

As a member of Congress, you have the power to curb abuse and protect the public by:
• Refusing to vote for any FY2026 appropriations bill that includes increased funding for ICE or Border Patrol, including funds for detention; and
• Refusing to vote for any DHS funding bill unless it:
  1) Strengthens restrictions on ICE and Border Patrol’s ability to conduct dragnet arrest operations and target people based on race, language or accent, place of employment, or location at the time of apprehension;
  2) Ends Border Patrol deployment to our cities and rejects its ever-expanding mandate in immigration enforcement; and
  3) Limits DHS’s reprogramming and transfer authority—specifically preventing the reprogramming or transferring of funds for detention.

Please insist on real limits and accountability before any DHS funding is approved.
