    IAVA Recipient: Secretary Mattis Letter: Greetings, First, thank you for your service and sacrifice and for your incredible leadership that so many in the military and veteran community have experienced and respect. As you know, more than 1.5 million veterans have have educated themselves with the Post-9/11 GI Bill, and almost 70% of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) members have used or transferred this benefit to a dependent. It could very well be the most transformative federal benefit created. The new restriction on Post-9/11 GI Bill transferability to only those with less than 16 years of service is a completely unnecessary reduction of this critical benefit, and it will ultimately hurt our military recruitment and readiness. In a time of war, it remains enormously important to recruit and retain qualified servicemembers, especially with an ever-decreasing pool of eligible recruits. For years, IAVA has been at the forefront of this fight. We led the effort to establish this benefit in 2008 and we have successfully defended it in recent years. We cannot allow our GI Bill to be dismantled or abused. This is why I am standing with my fellow IAVA members to respectfully request that you reverse this counterproductive policy change that creates barriers to access to these transformative benefits. The GI Bill has been earned by millions of men and women on the battlefield and around the world and it should not be subjected to arbitrary restrictions that limit its use. Again, thank you for your leadership and I ask that you take action now to reverse this decision.

  • 2021 Legislative Wrap-Up
    2021 Legislative Wrap-Up Prepared by The Southern Group and City of Lakeland June 18, 2021 I. Coronavirus Pandemic Position: Support increased funding to State and Local Governments to help offset costs associated with the Coronavirus Pandemic. Ensure distribution of funds to cities within counties that receive direct appropriation from the Treasury. Support flexibility for the continued use of virtual meeting platforms by local governments when conditions merit such action. Support the ability of local governments to enact, and enforce, measures to reduce the spread of Coronavirus, and future epidemics, such as the wearing of masks. Support HB 7 and SB 72 relating to liability protections for businesses, local governments, schools, nonprofit organizations and religious institutions. Final Action: SB 72, by Senator Jeff Brandes, provides liability protections to all persons, businesses, governments, religious institutions, schools and health care facilities that remained open during the COVID pandemic and made good faith efforts to follow guidelines to prevent the spread of coronavirus. The bill requires that a plaintiff must show that the defendant acted with gross negligence, the plaintiff must have a signed affidavit from a doctor stating that the injury or death was a result of the defendant’s actions, and cases must be brought within one year of a COVID-19-related problem. The bill is retroactive in nature. SB 72 passed the Senate 24-15 and the House 83-31 and was signed by the Governor on March 29th. The bill went into effect immediately. SB 2006, by Senator Danny Burgess, is a comprehensive bill that amends the State Emergency Management Act to address threats from future pandemics or public health emergencies and imposes restrictions on the scope, duration and impact of emergency orders.

  • 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. Hiram's 2nd Thursday of each month: Sebastian Area Women in Business meets at 8am at Captain Hiram's. Breakfast is available for purchase. All business women are welcome to join us.
