Red Box with White Text "Take Action Now!"

Submitted by Alachua County in March 2025.

Action Alerts

SPB 7016 by the Senate Ethics and Elections Committee and HB 1205 by Representative Jenna Persons-Mulicka are the bills that are moving through committees focused on restricting the citizen-led amendment process at this point in the legislative session. These approaches are very different but both represent dire threats to the citizen-led amendment process in Florida. Please take 60 seconds to urge your state legislators to oppose attacks on the citizen-led amendment process.
