Please Vote Yes on SB 1256 - Voter Registration Applications to prevent party affiliation changes from occurring without the knowledge of the voter and place special emphasis on registration or update of registration at the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles.

Your Name, City, County ITEM #4 House Gun Bills Being Heard Wednesday, February 21st at 8 AM HB 485 Return of Weapons and Arms Following an Arrest requires a law enforcement agency to return any weapons or firearms that are taken from a person following an arrest, provided they were not seized as evidence associated with said arrest. HB 1223 Minimum Age for Firearm Purchase or Transfer restores the minimum age from 21 to 18 for people to buy rifles and other long guns. HB 17 Expiration of the Mandatory Waiting Period for Firearm Purchases requires the mandatory waiting period for all firearm purchases made from a licensed firearm dealer to expire three days after the purchase of a firearm, excluding weekends and legal holidays, regardless of whether a background check has been completed. HB 365 Representation by Counsel in Hearings on Petitions for Risk Protection Orders. The current Risk Protection Order (Red Flag) statute allows a respondent to be represented by a lawyer but denies a right to a court-appointed lawyer if the respondent cannot afford one. This forces low-income people to have to represent themselves when faced with losing their second amendment rights. This bill provides for a court- appointed counsel for an indigent respondent.
TAKE ACTION Please e-mail the following Republican members of the House Judiciary Committee and tell them to Vote Yes on HB 485, 1223, 17, 365. Be sure to add a comment in your own words. Copy and paste these email addresses into the TO line of your email.

"State Legislatures cannot dictate Amendments to be considered at an Art. V Convention" (flyer) shows that Lobbyists' assurances that a convention will be limited to considering only amendments requested by 34 State Legislatures, are false. A proposed Congressional "call", H.CON.RES. 24 (2023-2024) proves that Congress may count all applications together—including centuries-old, obsolete and rescinded applications in order to reach the 34-State threshold! This contradicts what Convention pushers are telling State Legislators.
Make 4 quick phone calls!
Please call the following Florida Representatives this week and leave your name and a brief message as follows: Ask the Speaker and Majority Leader to take the Art V Convention applications HCR 703 and HCR 693 off the Special Order Calendar and kill them. Ask the two Sponsors to withdraw them.
Representative:
Phone (Distr. Office):
Speaker Paul Renner (R)

Majority Ldr. Michael Grant (R)

Good Afternoon 912 Patriots!
Please check out this WH912 Call to Action!
Hi WH912 Activists!!!!! Jim Jordan is slowly gaining ground in his bid for Speaker of the House. We can take action and help! See below and make some phone calls!
Godspeed All!
Royal and Glynnda
From one of our great activists across Florida Lane Watkins in North Florida. He has provided us some excellent intelligence regarding the race for house speaker.....please call the Florida guys and more if you feel so inclined and ask them to commit to supporting Jim Jordan for speaker....GO GET 'EM 912!
Folks,
Tell these US House Representative holdouts that it is time to get with the program and elect a new Speaker. Jordan is the only one with support. Please urge everyone to make calls and send Faxes to those listed below. Suggested messaging is included.
Jordan for Speaker, Message to US House Members:
Americans of all stripes are highly upset with Congress’ inability to pass meaningful legislation, especially on time budget bills.
When the Republicans have the majority, they show an unwillingness to unify and do what is best and responsible for all Americans.
Americans have suffered under Boehner, Ryan, Pelosi and McCarthy. McCarthy negotiated a deal to become Speaker then promptly caved to leftist interests. It was very important to remove him. Americans overwhelmingly support his removal.
Now you are responsible for helping elect a new Speaker. Scalise backed out. Who else has support but Jim Jordan? Nobody! Meanwhile, important US House work is not getting done because Members are dragging their feet on electing the new Speaker. Please get on board and Support Jordan now.
Phone message: You know Mcarthy couldn’t be trusted and had to go. Now there is no other viable Speaker candidate than Jim Jordan. Please support him and let’s get the US House back to work.

Please attend the meeting if possible? You will not need to speak, but we need support for those who will be. We need to hold them accountable and find out who approved this, and who voted for it!
It is important that the Commission understands that their employer (We the People) do not approve of them spending $30,000 of our money for this type of training.
Just look at the attached map of Winter Haven upcoming developments. Common sense would dictate that no new development should be planned without an environmental impact study. What kind of pollution will occur? Infrastructure, roads, electric, water, sewer and We the People's input. Commissioners represent us and should hear our voices loud and clear. We the People are their employer, and we need to be part of the conversation for growth.
The meeting is at 6:00 p.m. at City Hall, 451 Third St. NW. in Winter Haven
From PRR request 419-2023 we learned the instructor is Lenora Bresler

You can send the email as written, or to make the campaign more effective, just change the subject line and use your own message.
Send an email to the Governor and your local reps.3. Plan a trip to Tallahassee on Tuesday, May 1st to meet with legislators in person. Watch the video below to plan your trip to the Capitol, and learn exactly what to do, and where to go. This video shows you how to be successful.
Watch "Planning your trip to the Capitol"Some of the flaws we are seeing in this legislation are:
The proposed legislation fails to address proper verification of US citizenship.
The proposed legislation fails to address numerous issues with Vote By Mail.
The proposed legislation fails to allow election-day vote hand counting.
The proposed legislation silences the voices of "We the People".
The proposed legislation severely undermines the transparency of data reports for citizens to audit the elections.
The proposed legislation creates unconstitutional laws.
The proposed legislation denies sunshine on Florida’s election processes and procedures.
Last week our election integrity lead, Liz Suits, traveled with members of several other groups to Tallahassee and met with legislators, and worked with them on some proposed changes. House Representative Roth filed the discussed amendments but they were pulled (we were told they were too late for the committee). A letter on behalf of many grassroots organizations and several Florida REC groups was hand-delivered to Governor DeSantis, Ashley Moody, SOS Byrd, and many other legislators on Friday.
Our hope is that Governor DeSantis calls for a special session, gets an amazing bill prepared, and becomes the hero, as well as the gold standard for Election bills across the nation. This is bigger than Florida. We set the standard. If we don't get this right it could have devastating effects for 2024.
The work Polk County Citizens Defending Freedom is doing is absolutely critical, and we all need to realize that we are in a spiritual war. Our fight is in its infancy, and we need your help! Please add a line item to your budget to contribute and help Polk County Citizens Defending Freedom continue its important work. If you already donate, we thank you. If you don't, we ask that you make a recurring monthly donation of $25, $50, $100, or whatever you can give. Every dollar in donations to the link below helps to fund freedom in Polk County. We thank you for anything that you are able to do. We are extremely grateful for your support.

Please call the Congressional Switchboard (202) 224-3121 and ask for your Rep and Sens Scott and Rubio's office and leave them message to the effect that the Occupant of the White House once again lied to the American public stating there are no bail outs of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB). The FDIC insuring the deposits over their $250,000 guarantee for woke tech companies and Venture Capital funds who have large deposits in SVB is a bail out by another name ! Why - because the FDIC will increase their fee to banks as result of this and banks will, in turn, simply pass these increased fees/costs on to its customers in the form of higher fees to customers like us. Also, what good is the FDIC and the FED if they will simply change their rules after the game has started and guarantee any amount of losses beyond the $250K guarantee to those using mismanaged SVB banking services. This is an outrageous Bail Out by another name; a bail out playing favorites with woke companies on the side of socialism.

Item 1: The legislative season begins on Monday 3/6/23. There are many good pieces of education legislation that will be considered. It is time to begin working with our legislators to get the bills that will actually help our kids get passed into law. Here is the first one of these calls to action....
Subject: Support HB 1 School Choice and HJR 31. Partisan School Board Elections
Please call the following legislators:
Paul Renner, Speaker of the Florida House, 850-717-5019
Ben Albritton, Senate Leader, 850-487-5184
Here is a sample message to call and read to them:
I support HB1 School Choice and HJR 31 Partisan School Board elections. Please support these bills and move them to the floor for a vote during this legislative season. These items are very important for the well being of Florida education and our kids.
Item 2: School Board Meeting this Tuesday: CCDF gives a perfect call to action....please see below and contact Mr Heid and the School Board on Monday. You will see contact information below. These are very important items that must be challenged. Please read through this item and see the alarming images from the website of Qualtrics. This agenda contains 6 pages of links. Each link is a request of hundreds to thousands of books for purchase. They are on the agenda for approval at this weeks' meeting. There is no way to appropriately review this huge amount of books in the 30-day allowance given in school policy.
Contact all and tell them to: Vote NO on the proposed Qualtrics purchase (Item P on the agenda) and NO on the approval of a huge purchase of books (Item Q-5 on the agenda) on order from a variety of schools that are almost impossible to be reviewed in the 30-day time period we are allowed. The purchase of the books should be put off until they have ALL been reviewed by current trained media staff and by citizen reviewers. We need an extension for review to at least 90 days to appropriately review and challenge questionable titles from this huge amount of books.

Polk County Citizens Defending Freedom (CCDF-Polk) requests your presence at the next School Board Meeting on February 28th at 5 pm. The meeting is located at 1915 S. Floral Ave. Bartow, FL 33830.
Prior to the meeting, we are organizing a 'Prayer in the Park' at 4:30 pm. We will gather to pray for each of the school board members by name. We also want to pray for our children in the schools that their hearts and minds are protected. Would you please spread the word? The park’s address is 2094 South Floral Avenue, right across the street from the school board office. This is not a protest of any kind, but a time to seek God and ask for His Spirit to be at work in our school district.
The following are the agenda items of concern for Tuesday Night's meeting:
Item P: Purchase of Qualtrics, LLC, Teaching and Learning, $468,881.25 ($128,712.50 year 1, $156,293.75 year 2 & $183,875.00
The Qualtrics platform provides a single data collection system and is used by various large school districts across the country including Orange County, FL, Chicago Public Schools, and Austin Independent School District, as well as post-secondary institutions such as the University of North Florida. The application continues to stay current on strategies that assist the end user in reaching the stakeholder. The Qualtrics platform will offer a platform, which will provide users with a method for developing dashboards for real-time reporting classroom walkthrough trends. This system will allow for alignment at all levels to ensure that students are provided with an aligned instructional experience.Item 1: The legislative season begins on Monday 3/6/23.

This is concerning due to the amount of data that could be collected from our students and placed into a database. There are multiple companies that are mining data from students in order to build a personality profile that will be kept for the remainder of their lives. At the same time that Polk County Public Schools is proposing purchasing this, there are two proposed bills in legislation to protect our children from data collection, the "Student Online Personal Protection Act", HB 699, and SB 662. Why would we spend half a million dollars on this data collection tool, when there is a potential that it will not even be allowed in a few months? Qualtrics has a concerning list of partners.

The issue is Other and the body of your email should state words to the effect:
Please support SB 214 - Sales of Firearms and Ammunition. Banks and other financial institutions should not be able to discriminate against merchants of firearms and/or ammunition by assigning merchant category codes to their businesses and automatically shutting them off from financial services or even closing their existing personal and/or merchant accounts.

Fellow conservatives - please send emails to the 3 RINOs below who are threatening to derail Speaker McCarthy's removal of Islamist Rep. Ilhan Omar from the Foreign Relations Committee which she certainly does not belong on. See info and easy to follow instructions below. RAB III
3 GOP US Representative holdouts may jeopardize removal of Ilhan Omar from Committee on Foreign Affairs.
Axios published an article titled McCarthy's bid to oust Omar from committee in peril as third GOP rep. objects. The article reports in part:
By the numbers: With a five-vote margin and Rep. Greg Steube (R-Fla.) unable to vote as he recovers from an accident, McCarthy is dangerously close to falling short of the GOP votes he needs.
• Ken Buck (R-CO) is the third House Republican to say they oppose removing Omar, along with Reps. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) and Victoria Spartz (R-Ind.).
• Democrats, for their part, are likely to form a united front. “We are still doing the work but [are] confident all factions of the caucus are united against the attempt to remove her,” a Democratic leadership aide told Axios.
• McCarthy will need to run the table with those Republicans who remain undecided, including Biden-supporting district Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-Pa.) and David Valadao (R-Calif.) and Rep. Dave Joyce (R-Ohio), the chair of the moderate Republican Governance Group.
Ilhan Omar’s passion for hostile Islamist doctrine and hate for Israel should disqualify her from serving on the Committee on Foreign Affairs:
• The Federalist reports Rep. Ilhan Omar Refuses To Denounce Al-Qaeda, Islamic Terrorism.
• Rep. Ilhan Omar raised funds for Hamas linked, Muslim Brotherhood linked, terror linked Council On America Islamic Relations (CAIR). The United Arab Emirates, a broad coalition of Arab Countries named CAIR a terrorist organization.
• When Democrats controlled the House of Representatives they took no action against Rep Ilhan Omar for her virulent anti-Semitic diatribes against Israel.
Florida Family Association has prepared THREE SEPARATE emails to send to Reps. Buck, Mace and Spartz to urge them to remove Rep. Ilhan Omar from the Committee on Foreign Affairs. It is important that these emails be sent separately so that the representatives do not see them arriving as joint emails.
Unlike most of Florida Family Association action emails these three emails will open in your own email client. This form of email is being used because the House of Representatives has had a long standing policy to block emails sent through the florida-family.org action email server. If the emails doe not open properly in your email client please consider using the information below to copy, paste and send this action email in your own email software.

I urge you to reconsider your position and vote to remove Ilhan Omar from the committee.

Dear Rep Buck,
It is deeply troubling that you consider Ilhan Omar worthy of serving on the Committee on Foreign Affairs after she made many troubling anti Semitic and anti Israel statements, refused to denounce Al Qaeda and Islamic terrorism and raised money for terror linked CAIR which is listed by the United Arab Emirates as a terrorist organization. I urge you to reconsider your position and vote to remove Ilhan Omar from the committee.

Below you will find a great speech from Jim Jordan at the Volusia Republican Lincoln day Dinner recently attended by Royal and myself along with several other 912ers...and also some very important info from CCDF regarding school board matters...we need your help right away so please get involved wherever you can...
Godspeed everyone!
Item #1....watch a GREAT speech by Jim Jordan!

ITEM #2....help review books for the next School Board Meeting.....the school board has approved a huge number of books to go into new schools being built without the required review process. We have until 2/24/23 to review the books and turn in problematic titles and provide formal objections to the board....Please contact Pam Luce for a list of books and the review process they are using. Please call Pam TODAY and request a list of books for review. Most of them will be fine but they have already found 20 objectionable books after their first review of 15,000 books. There are 22,000 books left to review... Contact Pam today: pluce@ccdf.com
ITEM #3...Hello Friends, There is an urgent issue that I want to bring to your attention. A letter was sent to State Education Commissioner Manny Diaz on behalf of Florida Citizens Alliance and County Citizens Defending Freedom due to the fact that we were denied access to the teacher editions of Social Studies textbooks we are currently reviewing before they are allowed in our schools. Critical race theory (CRT) and social-emotional learning (SEL) are often taught via language in teacher editions. Furthermore, some textbooks indicate that the students should use a video link to conduct research, but there is no video link provided, so the videos cannot be reviewed. The video links are probably in the teacher’s editions. Below you will find an email link to send a pre-written message to Florida State Education Commissioner Diaz. We cannot effectively review textbooks without the teacher editions, and I would like to ask you to please send an email of concern to the commissioner. There are 90 of us reviewing textbooks statewide. If these textbooks are inappropriate, we do not want them in the hands of our children. Thank you! Robert Goodman, Executive Director CCDF

Good Morning 912 Patriots!
This is your call to action from the meeting on 9/8/22. There are two items this week:
1. The State of the School Board. Frederick Heid, School superintendent has chosen to go with OPT OUT rather than OPT IN as a course of action for removing access to inappropriate reading materials from their kids. OPT OUT means the parent will have to know the books are in the library to make the request. OPT IN would mean that every parent would be given knowledge of the books and would have to request specifically that their kids are able to read the books. We request that the school system reinstate the OPT IN policy for certain books. The school grade report for schools continues to be at low levels and we are asking that Mr Heid and the school board stop pursuing social experimentation with our kids and focus on improving actual life skills learning for our kids, i.e reading, writing arithmetic and civics for our kids...Please call Superintendent Heid and the school board today and ask them to please reinstate the OPT IN policy for books that were reviewed over the Summer and also to please keep their focus on teaching kids basic life skills learning such as math, reading, writing and TRUE civics.
Our School Board changes after the general election on 11/8 however we need to stay involved right now as the current school board is still making decisions for our kids.
Please call::
Frederick Heid, School Superintendent: 863-534-0500 (ask for Superintendent Heid)
Sara Beth Wyatt, School Board Chair: 863-604-2023
Lisa Miller, Vice School Board Chair: 863-698-6240
William Allen, School Board Member: 863-548-8141
Kay Fields, School Board Member: 863-802-5483
Lynn Wilson, School Board Member: 863-397-0066
Lori Cunningham, Sch Board Member: 863-534-0529
Sarah Fortney, School Board Member: 863-582-2534
2. Please see the info below on Jeremy Brown, Candidate FL House, D-62 and J6/American Gulag Prisoner. Jeremy sits in jail for almost 350 days to date with no due process, no bail set, no charges levelled...why, because he refused to become a stool pigeon against law abiding citizens for the FBI and he was present as security on January 6, 2021. There are literally hundreds of law abiding citizens across the US who have suffered the same fate and worse. Please call the numbers below and demand that this situation be looked into by these elected officials and law enforcement agencies. Jeremy fights for our rights as citizens...we must support him.

Have a great weekend everyone and Godspeed! Time to get started on taking back our nation.
Attached and below is Voter Info on how to check Polk County Supervisor of Elections web site for voter registration info and to get a Sample Ballot based on your address and our WH 912 Sample Ballot filled in for those in US Dist 18; FL House Dist 48 and FL Senate District 12.
Note - You may live in different districts so be aware that those FL House and Senate District candidates representing parts of Polk County who are not on Sample Ballot are because Republicans in those districts are running unopposed.
WH 912 Voter Info – Formal Voter Guide coming out July 25. In meantime Go to the Polk Super of Elections Web site –
Polk County Supervisor of Elections > Home (polkelections.com)
Click on Voter Services at top left – then on menu at far right near bottom click on Voter Lookup – Under My Info Type in your name, DOB and address and then check your voter information including registration info and make sure it is correct. You can request a mail out ballot here if want one.
From here you can bring up a Sample Ballot based on your address and party registration which should be Republican. If not, and you’re registered NPR or Democrat then consider changing your Registration to Republican so you can vote in Republican Primary.

You won’t see any Republican candidate who is running unopposed as a Republican in the Primary such as our FL House Reps – Sam Killebrew – Dist 48 or Melony Bell – Dist 49. If you live in FL House Dist 51 then vote for our endorsed candidate Bill Olson running against Jesse Tomkow.
You will also not see State Sen candidates Burton, Burgess or Albritton; Gov DeSantis & his Cabinet nor Senator Rubio because they are all unopposed in the Republican Primary. They won’t appear until General Election Ballot later which will include their Democrat opponents who won their Primary.

Call to Action 060222 - UVALTE TEXAS SCHOOL SHOOTING
Tell Your Representative & Senators - No Need for More Gun Control
Call the Congressional Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and ask for your 2 US Senators and 1 US Representative –Tell them the following: Reference the Texas mass school shooting. The solution is not more gun control or Red Flag Laws. The solutions are securing schools; arming trained school personnel willing to defend children; a Resource Officer with the training and courage to run to the sounds of gun fire and take out the shooter; LE backup who take immediate action and bringing back morality, respect for our existing laws and reporting mentally unstable people to authorities who then investigate and act on information.
BACKGROUND: I, like every other God loving, law abiding American grieve for the 19 children and 2 adults murdered by a mentally insane, Evil young man apparently using AR 15 style semi-auto rifles BUT the gun(s) he used did not commit these terrible crimes; he and the Devil did. It also appears, just like the Parkland FL, Marjory Stoneman Douglas HS killings in 2018, to have been entirely preventable had School and District Administrators not been negligent. We know from MSD case LE at both FBI and Sheriff levels were negligent. It is now appearing this is also the case in the Robb Elementary shooting case as we now know LE stalled for at least 45 mins before a brave Border Patrol Agent took it upon himself to move in and kill the murderer.
The Robb Elementary School, Uvalte, Texas killer was18 Yr old Salvadore Romas who had posted himself with ARs on social media 4 days prior to this terrible mass murder. He shot his Grandmother (who later died) and a BOLO was out on him before the school shooting. He was being pursued when he ran off road and apparently escaped near the elementary school which was not under lockdown where he entered an unlocked rear door into a 4th grade classroom and started shooting.
Obviously, the shooter and the devil are at fault but we are finding out this is also another failure of both law enforcement and school officials to adequately protect these children just as it was at Marjory Stoneman Douglas HS in Parkland, FL in 2018. This will ignite another irrational cry for gun control and weapons ban. Andrew Pollock, the father of a child killed in the FL school shooting is right when he stated the below - see following link:: https://www.westernjournal.com/father-school-shooting-victim-3-point-plan-protect-schools-doesnt-involve-banning-guns/?
“We shouldn’t be focusing on gun control now. Parents should be focused on what they can do. They could learn and educate themselves,” he told Fox News Wednesday.
“We should be looking at what we can be doing to fix these things in schools. A single point of entry. How did the intruder get into the school? It should be locked down. We need school resource officers. And it’s just terrible to think that this was all avoidable,” Pollack further stated.
Pollack’s 3-Point Plan: “We send out $Billions to other countries all the time. Why not fund school safety in America?” Pollack asked.
-Armed guard
-Single point of entry
-Teacher training
Adding to this plan, I agree we don’t need more Gun Control but what we do need are:
- Physically secure schools, not ones with unlocked doors and gates that shooters can easily enter classrooms thru.
- Armed, trained Resource Officers or Security Guards such as we have in FL in every school under the Sentinel/Guardian program
- Armed, trained school personnel which FL law allows but School District Administrators & most County Sheriffs have been against for no good reasons.
- LE standard operating procedures to run to the sound of gunfire in schools, without delay. rather than waiting to "develop the intel or the situation" - these paid guards must have the courage and be trained to take immediate action and run to the sounds of shooting, take out the shooter(s) and not hunker down and wait for support.
- Better identification & care for mentally unstable people especially those known to others like medical, LE and education officials as potentially dangerous. This is especially true when these murderers are sending threatening signals over social media. We need the legion of leftist social media watchdogs and algorithms to be more concerned with actual threats of violence than censoring conservative speech they wrongly find to be "hateful speech" because of differences in political ideologies. Both Cruz in FL and Ramos in Texas had sociopathic issues broadcast over social media.
We don't need the Federal Govt and the Dept of IN-JUSTICE "administrative deep state" dictating unconstitutional policies and a leftist Congress or RINO State Legislators overreacting and passing laws and implementing witch hunt procedures impacting law abiding gun owners from exercising their 1st, 2nd, 4th 5th and 14th Amendment rights by mis-labeling them "domestic terrorists", "white supremicists" etc.This is disinformation designed to scare them from speaking out against the socialist/Marxist/communist policies of the O'Biden Administration.
Gird yourself, another round of emotionally driven, non-fact based, barrage of gun control efforts are on their way !

'Elite' Border Patrol agent credited with killing Texas school mass shooter
Washington Examiner ^ | 25 May 2022 | Daniel Chaitin & Cami Mondeaux
A Border Patrol agent is being credited with killing the gunman in a deadly mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, on Tuesday. A Border Patrol Agent rushed into Robb Elementary School without waiting for backup. He shot and killed the gunman, who was hiding behind a barricade. The as-yet-unidentified agent was wounded but able to walk out of the school, the source added.

Here is Royal's Call to Action for 5/1/22....please, please, please...we need your help! The School Board must be absolutely bombarded if we are to be successful.....here goes!!!!
Re the 16 Age inappropriate, obscene, pornographic books in PCPS District Media Center (see Ledger Article 042922 attached. Agree with Glynnda's recommendations below. Following are the emails and phone numbers of the 7 current School Board Members - recommend sending emails to each SB member individually rather than as a string. If you call and get a voicemail, please leave your message with your name and phone # ! DO THIS NO LATER THAN MONDAY please !
Following is the contact information for SB members.
William Allen William.allen01@polk-fl.net 863-546-8141
Lori Cunningham lori.cunningham@polk-fl.net 863-534-0529
Sarah Fortney sarah.fortney@polk-fl.net 863-534-0529
Sara Beth Wyatt sarabeth.reynolds@polk-fl.net 863-604-2023
Kay Fields kay.fields@polk-fl.net 863-802-5483
Lynn Wilson lynn.wilson@polk-fl.net 863-397-0066
Lisa Miller lisa.miller@polk-fl.net 863-698-6240
Note: Cunningham & Fortney have same Ph #s as shown on PCPS web site at following link so ask for them individually
School Board of Polk County | Polk County Public Schools (polkschoolsfl.com)
Recommend you emphasize to each SB member something along the lines that she/he should NOT take the coward's way out by abrogating their responsibilities to vote on the 16 books by delegating this decision to the Superintendent. They should be accountable and show the public where they personally stand on this issue. We will not tolerate the continued indoctrination and sexualization of the children attending PC Public schools.
Note: We have received intel that the SB does not plan on voting on this issue but will leave the decision to Superintendent Heid. As we heard at April 26 meeting, it only takes 3 SB members to call for a vote on this issue. Are there not even 3 members of the current SB with the courage to make their position known?
Thank you.

"Tyranny Hates to Be Questioned"
Glynnda's Plan for strategy now through 5/10 and beyond if needed.
I think an excellent strategy for the next 9 days (til next school board meeting) is to contact every school board member by phone and email requesting that they ask for a vote on this matter at the next school board meeting. If they refuse, we know where they stand and can begin advertising as such over the Summer, if they do choose to vote and then vote for keeping these books, we can also advertise that over the Summer. They have painted themselves into a corner over this one and I believe we can win it if we are persistent.
I also want to research and find out how to get Heid fired. I also want to research past meetings (Sara Beth’s discussion of rules before public comments section) to find out if she has used (Items to be voted on) in other meetings….I don’t think she has.
Should the books be kept the next step is to file formal complaints with the Sheriff, the State Attorney, the FL Education Office and of course the Governor who just may take this up since he is in campaign mode. I am hoping that CCDF will begin legal action. I would certainly support such an action….

Re the 16 Age inappropriate, obscene, pornographic books in PCPS District Media Center (see Ledger Article 042922 attached. Agree with Glynnda's recommendations below. Following are the emails and phone numbers of the 7 current School Board Members - recommend sending emails to each SB member individually rather than as a string. If you call and get a voicemail, please leave your message with your name and phone # ! DO THIS NO LATER THAN MONDAY please !
Following is the contact information for SB members.

Note: Cunningham & Fortney have same Ph #s as shown on PCPS web site at following link so ask for them individually
School Board of Polk County | Polk County Public Schools (polkschoolsfl.com)
Recommend you emphasize to each SB member something along the lines that she/he should NOT take the coward's way out by abrogating their responsibilities to vote on the 16 books by delegating this decision to the Superintendent. They should be accountable and show the public where they personally stand on this issue. We will not tolerate the continued indoctrination and sexualization of the children attending PC Public schools.
Note: We have received intel that the SB does not plan on voting on this issue but will leave the decision to Superintendent Heid. As we heard at April 26 meeting, it only takes 3 SB members to call for a vote on this issue. Are there not even 3 members of the current SB with the courage to make their position known?
Thank you.

"Tyranny Hates to Be Questioned"
Glynnda's Plan for strategy now through 5/10 and beyond if needed.
I think an excellent strategy for the next 9 days (til next school board meeting) is to contact every school board member by phone and email requesting that they ask for a vote on this matter at the next school board meeting. If they refuse, we know where they stand and can begin advertising as such over the Summer, if they do choose to vote and then vote for keeping these books, we can also advertise that over the Summer. They have painted themselves into a corner over this one and I believe we can win it if we are persistent.
I also want to research and find out how to get Heid fired. I also want to research past meetings (Sara Beth’s discussion of rules before public comments section) to find out if she has used (Items to be voted on) in other meetings….I don’t think she has.

Item 1: Take PCPS School Survey
Please take the Polk County Public School District Annual Survey open to the public at polkschoolsfl.com/survey
You will need to check one of 3 categories as applies to you and the survey will come up.
Deadline to take the survey: April 4
Estimated time to take the survey: 10-15 min.
Obviously, your answers are entirely up to you but as one who has been attending and speaking at School Board meetings and researching FL Dept of Education and other performance Reports on FL School Districts in 2021, it is my honest and informed opinion that there are numerous problems with the Polk County Public School District and the School Board itself.
See below for a summary of Performance Reports and other information about PCPS - the outcomes speak for themselves. If we are to improve our School District and our Schools for the children of Polk County the emphasis needs to be on them and not just teachers, teacher's union, district staff and special interests. To do this, we must recommend that problems exist and ensure the District Staff knows we know that problems exist as reflected in our answers in this survey.
Factors to Consider When Taking Polk County Public Schools Survey:
There are 67 Traditional School Districts in FL:
FLDOE – Florida School Accountability Reports (fldoe.org)
51 other school districts had higher achievement scores than Polk in 2021
Polk Proficiency Scores: English – 44%, Math -40%, Science - 44%, Social Studies – 60%
No traditional High Schools in Polk achieved an A rating
SCHOOL DIGGER Best School Districts in Florida - FL District Rankings (schooldigger.com)
Ranked Polk County 57th
FDOE Report Card Option for 2021 – Florida Report Card (fldoe.org)
Polk County elected not to opt in
Great Schools.org Polk School District in Bartow, FL. | GreatSchools
61% of Polk Schools are rated below average in school quality
57% of students in this district are making less academic progress than their peers at other schools in the state.
Based on my and others personal observations while attending School Board Meetings, the seven School Board members rubber stamp the recommendations of Superintendent Heid and his Staff without due oversight and research.
For example, if not for the efforts of CCDF & WH912 the following would have been approved without discussion.
- Reproductive Health Care Curriculum containing age-inappropriate material which in some cases violate state
statutes – removed from agenda for further review
- Purchase of $860K Nearpod software which provides access to apps which teach Critical Race Theory and
surrogates like DUI (Diversity, Unity, Inclusiveness); Tolerance Learning; Learning for Justice, etc. After
assurances from Nearpod that CRT would be “mapped out” the SB is so sure of this that they refused to approve
a recommendation to provide a written guarantee that Nearpod would not be used by students and teachers to
gain access to CRT and related material.
- Renewal of a contract with a group called TPG Cultural Exchange to bring in foreign teachers to fill teacher
shortages was delayed after it was shown they were facing extortion charges for taking 25% of the pay away
from these teachers. This group was bussed in on Feb. 22nd in red shirts supporting their cause and the other
red shirted leftists protesting the removal of age inappropriate/pornographic books in PCPS libraries (see below).
-Review of 16 library books: After being brought to the attention of the PCPS Superintendent by FL Citizens
Alliance (FLCA), CCDF and WH912 that there are 16 age inappropriate, pornographic and statute violating books
in PCPS libraries, the Superintendent decided to organize 2 Committees to review these books. This review was
prompted by /aided by the PEA (teacher’s union), and a group calling themselves the Polk Parents for Education
(PPE) and members of the LGBTM community calling those in opposition names like “right wing extremists”, ‘un-
American” and “proto-fascists”. The Committees were picked by 4 Heid staffers and are mostly made up of left
leaning people and will take 9 weeks to review these books. No review should have been necessary as they
were already reviewed by FLCA in detail and a Report with excerpts provided to all concerned including Sheriff
Judd.
The current SB Members have demonstrated they are more concerned with their standing with District Staff and
teachers than they are with the safety and learning of school children and should be replaced.
Item 2: Call About FL Redistricting & Constitutional Carry
Our great Gov. DeSantis has plans to call for a Special Session which will occur sometime over next several weeks to discuss:
1. His redistricting Map which was not approved during regular session
2. Constitutional Carry which was not approved during regular session
3. Homeowner's Insurance
The road blocks that kept the Governor's Redistricting Map (adding 4 Republicans) from being approved appear to be the Speaker of House Chris Sprowls and both houses including Sprowls and Senate President Wilton Simpson and the same for Constitution Carry (don't need a state issued permit - the 2A is your permit).
Call, Email, Tweet these two FL Legislative "Leaders" now and again once the dates of the special session are announced and tell them to support Gov. DeSantis's redistricting map, and his support for Constitutional Carry. I'm not sure what the Homeowner's Insurance issue is but apparently it is something DeSantis wants so they should support this too.

Six (6) Bad Gun Control Bills to Stop
SB 204 (2022) Sale and Delivery of Firearms – bans private firearm sales
Referred to Judiciary, Criminal Justice, Appropriations Committees
http://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/00204
SB 210 (2022) Prohibited Recordkeeping Relating to Firearms or Firearm Owners – repeals the ban on government keeping records of gun owner Referred to Judiciary, Criminal Justice, Rules Committees http://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/00210
SB 214 (2022) Assault Weapons and Large-capacity Magazines – enacts an “assault weapons” ban and bans possession of magazines holding over 10 rounds Referred to Judiciary, Appropriations, Rules Committees http://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/00214
SB 220 (2022) Safe Storage of Loaded Firearms - makes it illegal to keep a firearm ready for self defense Referred to Judiciary, Criminal Justice, Rules Committees
http://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/00220
SB 402 (2022) Firearms - Requiring the Department of Law Enforcement, within a specified timeframe, to enter into the Florida Crime Information Center database certain orders affecting a person’s ability to purchase a firearm Referred to Judiciary, Criminal Justice, Rules Committees
http://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/00402
SB 496 (2022) Preemption of Firearms and Ammunition Regulation - Repealing a provision that municipalities can’t preempt state laws dealing with firearms Referred to Judiciary,Community Affairs, Rules Committees http://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/00496
Note: In the cases where more than one bill is submitted to same Committee Chair/Vice Chair you can combine the bad bills into two calls, one to Chair and one to Vice Chair. If either the Chair or Vice Chair is a Democrat no need to call him.
Example- SBs 204, 210, 214, 220, 402 and 496 all go to Judiciary Committee whose Chair is Danny Burgess (805)487-5020 and Vice Chair is a Democrat. In this case you need only make one call to Chairman Burgess (or leave message on answering machine). Your message should be to the effect – “Please do not allow 6 bad gun control bills, SBs 204, 210, 214, 220, 402 and 496 submitted by Democrats to be placed on the Judiciary Committee Agenda for a vote”. However you also need to call the Chairs & Vice Chairs of other 2 Committees each bill is referred to as well.
6.. Insist on Voter Integrity in Florida. We need to make sure our election processes are easy, safe and secure for ALL eligible voters. This requires making it as difficult as possible for cheaters to steal elections by cheating. We need laws to insure our elections are honest. If you see your Supervisor of Elections or an election employee do something illegal, who do you call? Governor DeSantis is suggesting that there be law enforcement that honest voters like us can call when we see trouble. Why is he not getting support from the legislature?
Don’t think election law enforcement for YOUR vote is not needed. Here is a quote from a great article by Christian Adams of the Public Interest Legal Foundation:
“In just the 2018 and 2020 federal election, election officials in just nine large Florida counties made over 150 election crime referrals to county prosecutors. County election officials are probably the best possible origin for an election crime referral. After all, this is their business and have the experience and know the signs. These election crime referrals were for acts such as voting twice, voting from illegal addresses and foreigners voting.”
Of those 150 referrals, guess how many resulted in actual criminal prosecutions?
If you guessed zero, you’d be right. Not one single county prosecutor did anything. No charges. No arrests. No convictions. These criminal referrals were made in Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Orange, Duval, Pinellas, Polk, St. Lucie and Alachua counties. The big boys. In Hillsborough County – Tampa – the Soros-funded county election supervisor said he has a policy never to refer election crimes to prosecutors. When you don’t prosecute election crimes, you get more election crimes.”
Governor DeSantis has 4 items of election integrity he feels should be addressed by the legislature:
1. Establish the Office of Election Crimes and Security within the Department of State to investigate election crimes and fraud.
2. Increase felony penalties to 3rd degree felony for ballot harvesting.
3. Prohibit haphazard, unsecure ballot drop box locations.
4. Establish time frames for voter roll maintenance.
Yet the legislature is showing signs of not wanting to pass this legislation. Why hasn’t there been a bill introduced?
As always, you can make a difference. It is time to urge all Florida Citizens to contact your FL Representative and Senator as well as key members of the Florida Legislature (see contact info that follows) and them you want to see a meaningful and bold bill addressing all of the Governor’s election integrity initiatives passed and sent to the Governor before the end of the 2022 FL Legislative Session. As always, please share widely. If you have time, tell the Governor, keep fighting for this! We must hurry. The 2022 legislative session ends March 11. 2022.

7. STOP the Democrats from taking our voting system away from the States and federalizing it by eliminating the filibuster rule. What we have in the Obama 3/Beijing Joe Biden puppet Administration is complete Totalitarianism and Lawlessness. We must retain the Filibuster in the Senate and stop the ridiculous voting laws the left wants to instigate which will federalize elections and take them away from states where they belong; eliminate the Electoral College and/or pack the SCOTUS with leftists. We the people must put an end to the absolute lawlessness currently endemic within our Federal government including the Congress, Depts of Justice (In-Justice), Homeland Security, Immigration & Naturalization and the entire so called intelligence community. Preserving the Senate filibuster protects the voices of millions of Constitutionally conservative Americans. Without it, we will have rule by Democracy whichis rule by Mob rather than rule by a Constitutional Republic which his rule by Law.
a. SaveOurElections.com has been updated with one-pagers, explainers, and graphics you can use to educate on Schumer’s plan to put D.C. bureaucrats in charge of our elections.
b. Nuclear Option to do away with the critical Senate Filibuster with Schumers S. 2747 “Freedom to Vote: Bill. This terrible bill should fail with the help of two Democrats Krysten Sinema of Arizona and Joe Manchin of W. Virginia. Once it fails, it is expected that Sen. Schumer will move to make the case that the filibuster needs to be “reformed” or done away with as a whole. In order for Senate Democrats to change or do away with the filibuster, that requires using the “nuclear option,” or for the Democrats to change Senate rules using only Democrat votes. Read more from Heritage’s Tom Jipping on what invoking the “nuclear option” would mean.
1). Invoking the nuclear option would destroy the institution of the Senate itself. The Constitution designed the Senate to be the chamber that required greater buy-in from the entire body of members. Protecting the filibuster means protecting the voices of millions of Americans. Nuking the filibuster is a real threat to our republic.
2). Many Democrats were once pro-filibuster. In 2017, Democrat Senators signed a letter urging then-Majority Leader McConnell to protect the filibuster. Signatures on the letter included 27 sitting Democrat Senators, including current Vice President Kamala Harris. In 2005, Chuck Schumer also said eliminating the filibuster “would be a doomsday for democracy." Democrats are now making a politically expedient flip-flop.
3) The Senators most publicly identified as opposed to the nuclear option are Sens. Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema. There are other Senators who may be willing to oppose but will likely hide behind Manchin and Sinema and avoid going on record in opposition.
c. Call Sens. Rubio and Scott and urge them to protect the filibuster
Rubio - 202-224-3041; Scott - 202-224-5274 or contact the Congressional Switchboard at
(202) 224-3121 - ask operator to connect you to their office
(Here’s a call script you can use).
d. Call the following Senators who may be on the fence and willing to oppose the nuclear option.
Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) (202) 224-4521
Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) (202) 224-2235

1, Support Canadian Truckers Protest Against Mandatory COVID VAXX: Idiot pajama boy and muslim PM of Canada Emergency Act against Canadian trucker protests of mandatory CCP virus VAXX and the freezing of bank accounts supporting them has backfired tremendously with a Run on Canadian banks.

Action Needed – Call the 3 Committee Chairs and 2 Vice Chairs (both Republicans unless otherwise noted) each bill is referred to & Request these 6 bad anti-2A bills NOT be placed on Committee Agenda for a vote and if are placed on Agenda then for all Republicans to vote NAY. Committee Chair/Vice Chair Contact Info follows:

Chair: Danny Burgess (850) 487-5020

Six (6) Bad Gun Control Bills to Stop
SB 204 (2022) Sale and Delivery of Firearms – bans private firearm sales
Referred to Judiciary, Criminal Justice, Appropriations Committees
http://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/00204
SB 210 (2022) Prohibited Recordkeeping Relating to Firearms or Firearm Owners – repeals the ban on government keeping records of gun owner Referred to Judiciary, Criminal Justice, Rules Committees http://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/00210
SB 214 (2022) Assault Weapons and Large-capacity Magazines – enacts an “assault weapons” ban and bans possession of magazines holding over 10 rounds Referred to Judiciary, Appropriations, Rules Committees http://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/00214
SB 220 (2022) Safe Storage of Loaded Firearms - makes it illegal to keep a firearm ready for self defense Referred to Judiciary, Criminal Justice, Rules Committees
http://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/00220
SB 402 (2022) Firearms - Requiring the Department of Law Enforcement, within a specified timeframe, to enter into the Florida Crime Information Center database certain orders affecting a person’s ability to purchase a firearm Referred to Judiciary, Criminal Justice, Rules Committees
http://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/00402
SB 496 (2022) Preemption of Firearms and Ammunition Regulation - Repealing a provision that municipalities can’t preempt state laws dealing with firearms Referred to Judiciary,Community Affairs, Rules Committees http://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/00496
Note: In the cases where more than one bill is submitted to same Committee Chair/Vice Chair you can combine the bad bills into two calls, one to Chair and one to Vice Chair. If either the Chair or Vice Chair is a Democrat no need to call him.
Example- SBs 204, 210, 214, 220, 402 and 496 all go to Judiciary Committee whose Chair is Danny Burgess (805)487-5020 and Vice Chair is a Democrat. In this case you need only make one call to Chairman Burgess (or leave message on answering machine). Your message should be to the effect – “Please do not allow 6 bad gun control bills, SBs 204, 210, 214, 220, 402 and 496 submitted by Democrats to be placed on the Judiciary Committee Agenda for a vote”. However you also need to call the Chairs & Vice Chairs of other 2 Committees each bill is referred to as well.
6.. Insist on Voter Integrity in Florida. We need to make sure our election processes are easy, safe and secure for ALL eligible voters. This requires making it as difficult as possible for cheaters to steal elections by cheating. We need laws to insure our elections are honest. If you see your Supervisor of Elections or an election employee do something illegal, who do you call? Governor DeSantis is suggesting that there be law enforcement that honest voters like us can call when we see trouble. Why is he not getting support from the legislature?
Don’t think election law enforcement for YOUR vote is not needed. Here is a quote from a great article by Christian Adams of the Public Interest Legal Foundation:
“In just the 2018 and 2020 federal election, election officials in just nine large Florida counties made over 150 election crime referrals to county prosecutors. County election officials are probably the best possible origin for an election crime referral. After all, this is their business and have the experience and know the signs. These election crime referrals were for acts such as voting twice, voting from illegal addresses and foreigners voting.”
Of those 150 referrals, guess how many resulted in actual criminal prosecutions?
If you guessed zero, you’d be right. Not one single county prosecutor did anything. No charges. No arrests. No convictions. These criminal referrals were made in Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Orange, Duval, Pinellas, Polk, St. Lucie and Alachua counties. The big boys. In Hillsborough County – Tampa – the Soros-funded county election supervisor said he has a policy never to refer election crimes to prosecutors. When you don’t prosecute election crimes, you get more election crimes.”
Governor DeSantis has 4 items of election integrity he feels should be addressed by the legislature:
1. Establish the Office of Election Crimes and Security within the Department of State to investigate election crimes and fraud.
2. Increase felony penalties to 3rd degree felony for ballot harvesting.
3. Prohibit haphazard, unsecure ballot drop box locations.
4. Establish time frames for voter roll maintenance.
Yet the legislature is showing signs of not wanting to pass this legislation. Why hasn’t there been a bill introduced?
As always, you can make a difference. It is time to urge all Florida Citizens to contact your FL Representative and Senator as well as key members of the Florida Legislature (see contact info that follows) and them you want to see a meaningful and bold bill addressing all of the Governor’s election integrity initiatives passed and sent to the Governor before the end of the 2022 FL Legislative Session. As always, please share widely. If you have time, tell the Governor, keep fighting for this! We must hurry. The 2022 legislative session ends March 11. 2022.
Our message or similar should be -
“I expect to see a meaningful and bold bill addressing all of the Governor’s election integrity initiatives 1. Establish the Office of Election Crimes and Security; 2. Make ballot harvesting a 3rd degree felony; 3. Prohibit haphazard, unsecure ballot drop box locations; 4. Establish voter roll maintenance time frames.

We just received advance notice that on Thursday, 2/17/2022, the Florida House Appropriations committee will hold a hearing to consider, among other things, their election integrity bill, HB 7061, Elections. This bill is very similar to the FL Senate SB524.
There is no hearing announcement providing hearing details on the FL House web site yet.
See the bill here: https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/Sections/Bills/billsdetail.aspx?BillId=76653&SessionId=93
Please take a moment and contact FL House Speaker Sprowls and as many of the committee members as possible to tell them the following in your own words:
“Representative,
Thank you for continuing to fight for easy and secure elections for ALL eligible voters. I support HB 7061, Elections, but ask that it be strengthened.
The investigative arm proposed by the Governor is urgently needed. Now, voters and poll workers have nowhere to turn when they observing cheating during an election. The Supervisor is busy with the election. The rush to certify elections give the ordinary citizen no chance to have their allegations resolved. In a letter dated 5/21/2021, Mary Helen Farris, Hillsborough County Attorney’s Office stated “Please be advised that the Supervisor’s Office has no responsive records as we do not refer cases to the State Attorney’s office.” The citizen needs an advocate. Support the Governors plan.
Please make some amendments to HB 7061:
· Add the Governor’s provision to prohibit haphazard, unsecure ballot drop box locations;
· In Section 5 of the bill changing section (2)(c) of FS 98.065, someone inserted WRT sending an address confirmation card to those who have not voted in the last 2 years, the words “At a Supervisors discretion…”. Change that to “At a Supervisors discretion, but at least once per year…”
· Supervisors are using the vague language of FS 101.572 to keep the public from observing vote by mail processing. Clarify FS 101.572 to allow public inspection of the signature match of vote-by-mail ballots to “The observer must be allowed to observe the signature match of vote-by-mail ballots in such a way that the observer is able to see the signature and voter ID on each ballot package certificate as well as the reference signature and voter ID used by the Supervisor of Elections”
We need a meaningful and bold bill addressing all of these election integrity initiatives passed and sent to the Governor before the end of the 2022 FL Legislative Session. Please, add these amendments to HB 7061 and pass it out of this committee.”
If you can, please to come to Tallahassee to testify in support of this bill. Monitor the committee website at https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/Sections/Committees/committeesdetail.aspx?SessionId=93&CommitteeId=3084 for an announcement of the meeting where HB 7061 will be heard. Go to https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/default.aspx and look for the “Full Schedule” button on the right side of the page. Click on it to open the schedule page, select the date of the meeting and see if it appears on the list yet. When it does, you will see a “Appear at Meeting” button.

An important word of caution: If you attend enough hearings you will see a citizen lose their temper or say rude or demanding things to lawmakers or other citizens in the audience. Watch closely: Support for that person’s position among lawmakers vanishes INSTANTLY!!!! Being angry, shouting, being rude does not work, ever!!!! If you cannot stay composed and present your position calmly and respectfully, do not come to Tallahassee. You will hurt your cause.
Another caution: It is late in the legislative session. There will be many bills on the agenda for this hearing. The opposition lawmakers will try to add so many amendments and string out debate such that the clock runs out and the bill does not receive a vote. Do not be discouraged, it is part of their gamesmanship. What that means is the chairman may reduce citizen speaking time down to 3 minutes, 2 minutes or even 30 seconds. Make no mistake, you appearing and speaking for 30 seconds makes a difference!!!!! Please make an appearance.
Please share this widely and urge everyone contact these FL House Representatives from now through Feb. 17. They have a lot of bills in their heads so we need to fix in their minds to pass HB 7061. Don’t forget twitter and facebook.

There is no hearing announcement providing hearing details on the FL House web site yet.
See the bill here: https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/Sections/Bills/billsdetail.aspx?BillId=76653&SessionId=93
Please take a moment and contact FL House Speaker Sprowls and as many of the committee members as possible to tell them the following in your own words:
“Representative,
Thank you for continuing to fight for easy and secure elections for ALL eligible voters. I support HB 7061, Elections, but ask that it be strengthened.
The investigative arm proposed by the Governor is urgently needed. Now, voters and poll workers have nowhere to turn when they observing cheating during an election. The Supervisor is busy with the election. The rush to certify elections give the ordinary citizen no chance to have their allegations resolved. In a letter dated 5/21/2021, Mary Helen Farris, Hillsborough County Attorney’s Office stated “Please be advised that the Supervisor’s Office has no responsive records as we do not refer cases to the State Attorney’s office.” The citizen needs an advocate. Support the Governors plan.
Please make some amendments to HB 7061:
· Add the Governor’s provision to prohibit haphazard, unsecure ballot drop box locations;
· In Section 5 of the bill changing section (2)(c) of FS 98.065, someone inserted WRT sending an address confirmation card to those who have not voted in the last 2 years, the words “At a Supervisors discretion…”. Change that to “At a Supervisors discretion, but at least once per year…”
· Supervisors are using the vague language of FS 101.572 to keep the public from observing vote by mail processing. Clarify FS 101.572 to allow public inspection of the signature match of vote-by-mail ballots to “The observer must be allowed to observe the signature match of vote-by-mail ballots in such a way that the observer is able to see the signature and voter ID on each ballot package certificate as well as the reference signature and voter ID used by the Supervisor of Elections”
We need a meaningful and bold bill addressing all of these election integrity initiatives passed and sent to the Governor before the end of the 2022 FL Legislative Session. Please, add these amendments to HB 7061 and pass it out of this committee.”
If you can, please to come to Tallahassee to testify in support of this bill. Monitor the committee website at https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/Sections/Committees/committeesdetail.aspx?SessionId=93&CommitteeId=3084 for an announcement of the meeting where HB 7061 will be heard. Go to https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/default.aspx and look for the “Full Schedule” button on the right side of the page. Click on it to open the schedule page, select the date of the meeting and see if it appears on the list yet. When it does, you will see a “Appear at Meeting” button. Click on that and complete the meeting appearance form. For the FL House, this form is submitted electronically but go ahead and print it out and bring a copy with you to the hearing. Plan to arrive at the committee meeting room at least a half hour before the meeting.
An important word of caution: If you attend enough hearings you will see a citizen lose their temper or say rude or demanding things to lawmakers or other citizens in the audience. Watch closely: Support for that person’s position among lawmakers vanishes INSTANTLY!!!! Being angry, shouting, being rude does not work, ever!!!! If you cannot stay composed and present your position calmly and respectfully, do not come to Tallahassee. You will hurt your cause.
Another caution: It is late in the legislative session. There will be many bills on the agenda for this hearing. The opposition lawmakers will try to add so many amendments and string out debate such that the clock runs out and the bill does not receive a vote. Do not be discouraged, it is part of their gamesmanship. What that means is the chairman may reduce citizen speaking time down to 3 minutes, 2 minutes or even 30 seconds. Make no mistake, you appearing and speaking for 30 seconds makes a difference!!!!! Please make an appearance.

WH 912 Call to Action – 01/06/2022
- Oppose Obama 3/Biden fiascos –
Beijing Joe has admitted the Federal Govt has failed in its politicized attempts to eliminate COVID and has stated this is now up to each state to do. He has ordered millions of Home Testing strips to be distributed at a cost of $130 M to build a new factory in Wisconsin to manufacture the test strips but it won’t be completed until 2028. This is an indication they want a “forever pandemic”.
Biden continues to nominate Socialists/Communists to key federal positions. His latest nominee is Nancy Abana Abudu as a Judge for the 11th Circuit Court. Abudu is the far left head of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s legal Dept who advocates for removing any requirement for photo ID and proof of citizenship in order to vote. Contact Sens Rubio (202-224-3041) and Scott (202-334-5274) and leave a message to NOT vote for her confirmation.
- Oppose Pelosi Kangaroo Court - Pelosi is timing the release of her kangaroo court fake findings on the Jan. 6th DC events they continue to falsely call a riot/insurrection to correspond to the mid-term elections in Nov. This is an effort to reduce the Red Wave which is anticipated to take back the House. I doubt Pelosi’s fake report will have much of an impact – estimates are that Republicans will gain 25-40 seats in the House and Pelosi will be removed as Speaker. We’re anticipating taking back the Senate as well but by a small margin. Even more important is for RINOs in House & Senate to be replaced.
- Demand the Constitutional Rights of the 50+ people arrested and held without charges or trial receive Due Process related to their actions on Jan. 6th, 2021. Change the W. Bush created & Obama/Biden supported Patriot Act allows unconstitutional, indefinite incarceration without trial or Due Process of US Citizens based on unproven charges of domestic terrorism.
- Support the FL Heartbeat Bill on the ballot as a Constitutional Amendment for November 2022. 800,000 signatures are required. Go to the following link; fill this form out; print it and send it in.... Human Life Protection Amendment (heartbeathero.org)
.do it right now! The instructions are right on the front page
- Don’t Support RINO Incumbents in 2022- Call Sen Rick Scott at 202-224-5274 and leave message that he and the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC), which he chairs, should NOT be supporting RINO incumbents running for re-election in 2022 like Lisa Murkowski who voted to impeach POTUS Trump and who have supported other Schumer socialist actions. A staffer I talked to says he has received a lot of calls about this. He needs to receive many more. Republicans should not be supporting incumbents during Primaries who have proven they are establishment RINOs more in tune with socialist policies than constitutional republicanism. https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2021/11/07/nrsc-chair-sen-rick-scott-pledges-to-help-murkowski-against-trump-endorsed-challenger/
- Why are our FL Republican Delegation failing to co-sponsor/support good bills ?

HB 133 -- Prohibiting Cooperation With a United States Capitol Police Office Located in FL - Prohibits any state or local law enforcement agency or other state or local agency from cooperation with US Capitol Police office or personnel located in this state; prohibits access to certain databases
HB 103 - Providing Constitutional Carry - Removes requirement that license to carry concealed firearm is required in order to carry such firearm
HM 231 - Border Wall and Total Immigration Moratorium - Urges Congress to enact legislation to fund & require the completion of the border wall between the U.S. & Mexico & impose a total immigration moratorium.
HB 299 – Social Media Platforms - Provides requirements for social media platforms relating to acceptable use policies, quarterly transparency reports, & complaint system; authorizes AG to bring action against social media platforms & to recover certain costs.

- Oppose Islamic Censure of our Rights to Free Speech - Click here to send your email to encourage US Senate leaders and members of the US Senate Committee on Foreign Relations to oppose the Combating International Islamophobia Act S3384. If passed into law this would create a federal task force to enforce a Sharia law edict that prohibits truthful criticism of Islam in violation of our 1st Amend rights.
