Hello Federation Family, Friends and Supporters!
Our next Legislative Committee gathering will take place tomorrow,
Thursday, May 23rd at 8:00 PM, (Eastern). We will have multiple topics on
our agenda, including, but not limited to, an update on the status of our
legislative priorities for 2024. Since our last Legislative Committee call,
I happy to report that we heeld an in person meeting with Congressman Aaron
Beans office and got good feedback from his local field representative. I?m
also awaiting on the opportunity to meet with Senator Scotts office to
discuss a bill related to Social Security disability benefits. I can?t wait
to tell you all about these happenings.
I conferred with our co-legislative chair, Camille Tate, regarding tomorrow
nights meeting and we agreed that we want to make sure that our meetings
stay fresh, relevant and interesting. With those thoughts in mind, we have
planned some interesting topic discussions and presentations for the
upcoming get together. I don?t think you are going to want to miss it.
Thursday night certainly gives us the opportunity to learn from one another
on some items of major importance. I know that your time is valuable so I
want to make sure that you come away from the meeting having had the chance
to learn more about and gain some excitement for, the legislative process.
During last years Legislative Committee meetings, which I?m thrilled to say
were well attended, I?ve continued to receive positive feedback on the idea
that we use our calls to gain knowledge and to learn from one another. We
will be preparing to move ourselves forward with our in State campaign of
action and advocacy soon and will need all of the support and involvement of
members and supporters that we can muster. As we move through the months of
2024, we will need full participation from every Chapter and Division,
whether you are in the North, South, East or West of Florida. One important
thing I?d like to point out is that Florida needs involvement from members
in each of its 28 Congressional Districts. We don?t have that now, but it is
something that is desperately needed. Having you with us this Thursday
evening is key.
Please see the Zoom link for the meeting below. Looking forward to having
you with us on Thursday.
Respectfully,
Russ Davis, Legislative Director
