  • Dear Members of the Tourism Industry, Yesterday, the Florida Senate
    Member News February 21, 2020 Dear Members of the Tourism Industry, Yesterday, the Florida Senate unanimously passed an eight-year reauthorization of VISIT FLORIDA (SB 362 sponsored by Senator Ed Hooper). This is great news for our industry and we sincerely thank the Florida Senate for supporting Governor Ron DeSantis’ budget recommendation of an eight-year reauthorization with con- sistent funding for our organization. While this is positive news, our work is far from finished. As the Legislature approaches the final stages of their budget crafting process, VISIT FLORIDA must be reauthorized and funded by BOTH CHAMBERS or we cease to exist in July. We have been meeting with members of the Legislature nonstop this session, and we remain hopeful that our organization will continue to have the ability to provide great services to you and your business well into the future. If you haven’t already, please reach out to your Florida Senator to thank them for their support. Also reach out to your Florida House Representative mem- ber and respectfully urge them to properly fund and support VISIT FLORIDA. To find out how you can help, visit TourismWorksForFlorida.org. Sincerely, Dana Young President and CEO, VISIT FLORIDA Regularly Scheduled Networking Events Every Wednesday: Exchange Club of Sebastian meets at noon at Capt.

  • $43 Million Spent to Deceive Floridians and Stop Solar
    $43 Million Spent to Deceive Floridians and Stop Solar November 2, 2016 Lost in the tumultuous presidential election and the down- ballot fears, something big has been happening quietly in Florida this year: Electric companies have dropped $42.7 million into political campaigns. The Miami Herald has published this information on Amendment 1. This article can be read in its entirety at this link. Read to the end to see those who have received money from the utilities. Comments by OSFR historian Jim Tatum. -A river is like a life: once taken, it cannot be brought back- Florida’s utility industry gambit: $43 million to influence legislature and stall rooftop solar Lost in the tumultuous presidential election and the down-ballot fears, something big has been happening quietly in Florida this year: Electric companies have dropped $42.7 million into political campaigns. Since January 2015, $20 million of the industry’s profits went to finance and promote Amendment 1, the ballot initiative that attempts to frustrate the expansion of consumer-owned rooftop solar in Florida, but another $15 million more went to fuel the campaigns of a select group of powerful legislative leaders in an effort to prepare for a prolonged war against rooftop solar. The bulk of the money is being used to promote Amendment 1 but, if that effort fails, the industry is also investing heavily into the Legislature to create favorable conditions in Florida, as utilities have in other states, to push back against the proliferation of rooftop solar. In other states, that effort has included attempts to make solar less economically feasible by reducing the amount the utility spends to reimburse customers for generating excess electricity to the grid through “net metering,” imposing new fees on solar users and pre-empting local governments from opening the door to more solar competition.
