May 6, 2020 Governor Ron Desantis State of Florida the Capitol 400 S. Monroe St. Tallahassee, FL 32399-0001 Scott a Rivkees, M May 6, 2020 Governor Ron DeSantis State of Florida The Capitol 400 S. Monroe St. Tallahassee, FL 32399-0001 Scott A Rivkees, M.D. State Surgeon General Florida Department of Health 4052 Bald Cypress Way Tallahassee, FL 32399 Dear Governor DeSantis and Surgeon General Rivkees: We write out of concern for the 40,000 Floridians with end-stage renal disease who are at heightened risk during the ongoing pandemic. On behalf of these patients and their caregivers, we seek information about what specific steps the Florida Department of Health is taking to ensure that access to dialysis treatment is not disrupted. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend community mitigation strategies to protect individuals at heightened risk from COVID-19 transmission, including those with chronic kidney disease undergoing dialysis. This population is among the most vulnerable to severe illness because they suffer from weakened immune systems and often must put themselves at risk several times a week by leaving their homes for dialysis treatment. In some cases, missing even one treatment can lead to serious medical complications and even death. People living with chronic kidney disease also face heightened risk due to higher rates of comorbidities such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Alarmingly, a growing number of physicians are warning that COVID-19 may cause kidney damage and can exacerbate health conditions in patients with existing kidney problems. Specialists estimate that 20 to 40 percent of I.C.U. patients with the novel coronavirus suffered kidney failure and required dialysis. A surge in such cases is leading to shortages of machines, supplies, and staff required for dialysis. It is critical that Florida maintain this supply chain because experts anticipate that more Americans will develop kidney problems as a result of the pandemic and any disruption to the regular dialysis treatment would be disastrous. There have been reports that states are struggling to secure life-saving equipment and supplies like dialysis machines, ventilators and personal protective equipment. We urge you to protect vulnerable Floridians with chronic kidney disease and those who may develop kidney problems resulting from COVID-19 by ensuring Florida has access to a sufficient stream of dialysis machines and related supplies. Additionally, we respectfully request answers to the following questions: 1. Are you tracking the availability of machines and fluid required to dialyze patients and skilled nurses needed to deliver care to patients with kidney failure? 2. Have you taken any steps to acquire dialysis machines and supplies? If not, why? 3. Are you tracking the availability of PPE, including disposable facemasks, at dialysis centers? 4. Are you tracking the extent of kidney damage and the use of dialysis treatment in confirmed coronavirus patients? 5. Have you taken any steps to ensure that dialysis patients who may not be able to afford or access alternatives to public transportation can safely reach their dialysis treatment centers? 6. Are you working to secure ambulance transport to and from dialysis treatment for patients who have contracted, or are suspected of having contracted, Covid-19, and who do not have safe transportation alternatives? If so, are you monitoring the availability of PPE for personnel transporting ESRD patients? 7. Are you developing guidelines for health-care providers to prioritize care for certain patients if faced with a scarcity of resources? If so, please provide a copy of this guidance. 8. Are you collecting data on the rate of COVID-19 infections and deaths among patients on dialysis? If so, please provide city- and county-level infection and mortality rates for this population. 9. What, if any, steps have you taken to ensure that dialysis patients can safely continue to access treatment? Thank you for your attention to these issues. We look forward to your response.

  • Education Law Alert February 2019 Ron Desantis Calls to Impanel
    Education Law Alert February 2019 Ron DeSantis Calls to Impanel Grand Jury on School Safety On the eve of the anniversary of the Parkland shooting Governor DeSantis announced that he petitioned the Florida Supreme Court to impanel a statewide grand jury to investigate school districts throughout the state regarding their school safety practices. DeSantis says he made the decision in order to go beyond the scope granted to the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission, which was tasked primarily with analyzing the causes of the shooting at that school last year. The Governor stated that in addition to the statewide scope of the grand jury, the panel’s subpoena power will have more teeth compared to the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission’s subpoena power. Read more here. Gov. Ron DeSantis Issues Bills on His Key Education Ideas Gov. Ron DeSantis challenged law makers to send him a bill that provides for the creation of taxpayer-funded scholarship for more children to attend private schools. Following the statement, the Governor and his team released their own versions of the bills they hope to see on scholarships, teacher performance pay, graduation requirements, and more. State Rep. Chris Latvala, chairman of House PreK-12 Appropriations and vice chair of House Education, acknowledged the Governor’s prerogative to put forward a budget and conforming bills that would establish new ideas. However, he stated that the Legislature might approve, rewrite, or outright kill the ideas, depending on the will of the majority. Read more here.

  • Ron-Desantis-For-Stay-At-Home-Order
    March 31, 2020 Governor Ron DeSantis State of Florida The Capitol 400 South Monroe St. Tallahassee, FL 32399-0001 Dear Governor DeSantis: As a follow up from our March 25th letter, we again urge you to issue a stay-at-home order for the entire state as COVID-19 continues to spread. Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, provided a stark warning Friday on the need for Americans to continue social distancing measures: “When you think you're maybe overreacting, you probably are not acting as forcefully as you should.” We appreciate your recent announcement that you will be issuing a “safer-at-home” order for the southern portion of the state, and will apply this order to Broward, Miami-Dade, Palm Beach, and Monroe counties through the middle of April. However, given that there are over 5,000 positive cases of COVID-19 in Florida, with the Department of Health reporting 523 new positive cases on Sunday, this order should be applied to the entire state immediately in order to effectively slow the spread of COVID-19. This pandemic has not respected global borders so it certainly will not respect county borders. We cannot wait, and we cannot leave this decision to county and municipal governments. We urge you to immediately issue a statewide stay-at-home order to save lives. Sincerely, ______________________ ______________________ Lois Frankel Debbie Wasserman Schultz Member of Congress Member of Congress ______________________ ______________________ Debbie Mucarsel Powell Donna Shalala Member of Congress Member of Congress _____________________ ______________________ Theodore E.

  • Governor Ron Desantis Highlights Administration's Major Accomplishments of 2020
    For Immediate Release: December 22, 2020 Contact: Governor’s Press Office, (850) 717-9282, [email protected] Governor Ron DeSantis Highlights Administration’s Major Accomplishments of 2020 Tallahassee, Fla. – Today, Governor Ron DeSantis highlighted the efforts his administration has taken on behalf of Floridians over the past year. Governor Ron DeSantis said, “This has been a year of challenges, but it has also been a year of historic feats, innovation and resiliency. With record investments in education and the environment, continued funding for mental health and substance abuse initiatives, a seamless and successful election season, increased support for Florida’s military and veterans and more, 2020 was yet another successful year for our state. “As we look toward 2021, I believe Floridians have reason to be optimistic. The vaccine has arrived in Florida and we have started vaccinating frontline health care workers, and we were the first state in the nation to begin vaccinating residents of long-term care facilities. As more vaccine supply becomes available, we will continue to prioritize Floridians most vulnerable to the virus to reduce the impacts of social isolation and support our state’s ongoing economic recovery. “The First Lady and I would like to thank all Floridians for their hard work and perseverance during a year unlike any of us have ever experienced before. Rest assured, there is a light at the end of this tunnel.” Putting Students, Families and Teachers First • Historic Investments in Florida’s Education System: o Called for and secured the highest ever per-pupil spending totals at $7,793 per student, an increase of more than $137 per student over the previous year.
