by 2010, people forget where florida was. i believe the most important thing you can do for somebody is give them a job. in 2010, and for years the state had lost 800,000 jobs. you forget that. today i got elected, 1.1 million homes were in foreclosure in florida. in four years, the prices dropped by 50%. we were going to default on our state that, the state only balance its budget once in 40 years. we had record debt. part of it was about to go in default. we were on credit watch by credit agencies. they raised taxes, increased regulation, and it was a place where we had a lot of problems with lawsuits. i was running for governor, nobody knew me. i said i have a plan for 700,000 jobs over seven years. in the end, i think i won the race, i ran in a primary with basically no endorsements. my opponent was a congressman, he was attorney general. everybody in the country endorsed the guy. i won because i had a plan to turn around the state. elections matter. i can tell you what we were able to accomplish. not because of one perso

the presiding officer: the senator from florida. mr. scott: when i heard the horrific news from uvalde, texas yesterday, i immediately thought of two things -- my grandchildren, most of who are in elementary school, and the 17 lives we lost in parkland, florida, four years ago. our hearts are shattered at the loss of these small children, 19 children just in fourth grade and two teachers. it's infuriating and heartwrenching. i can't man losing a child or loved one. unfortunately, there are 17 families in florida who don't have to imagine it. they know that pain and live it each and every day. there's seldom a day that goes by i don't think about the children that -- the families that lost children and loved ones that day. no community should feel the pain that families in parkland and uvalde now feel. we'll never prevent every vicious crime, but can and must ac. there are solutions at the state and federal level. today, we can take action in the senate to make our schools safer. i want to thank senator johnson for leading this bill and

with 119 of those from florida. our fsc association developed a nationally awarded florida certified program. this program consists of core courses and 120 hours of content instructed by industry experts. since its inception in 2009, we have had over 800 participants with 245 of those obtaining their master certification. in recent years, election security has become a top priority. partnerships with local state and federal agencies have been strengthened, as mentioned earlier in 2017, the department of homeland security designated election critical infrastructure, the center for internet security, of which i'm actually the vice chair of that executive board. election officials have access to resources and tools for implementing cybersecurity best practices. florida has used dollars to fund our security grant programs which have been beneficial across the state. despite these improvements, grave concerns remain for me and my colleagues. florida was touted as the gold standard and model for voting in the 2020 electio

i'm wesley wilcox supervisor of elections for marion county florida and president of the florida miser of elections association with more than 30 years experience in the election industry and i nationally certified. most of us at least on the table and on the committee likely recall the 2000 general election. admittedly it was not our finest hour. in the 20 years arsince in florida and many other states have made great improvements culminating in an administratively accurate and successful 20/20 general election. florida offers no excuse vote by mail option that has proven to be quite popular especially during thepandemic . as mentioned earlier by secretary chapman one of the things that sets florida apart in 2020 is the fact that vote by mail ballots are processed in s weeks prior to the election. this allows us to publish nearly complete vote by mail totals on election night and in addition if there is an issue with a male about signature we have time to contact the voter providing them an opportunity to cure their ballots. several years ago we also added an increase in early voting

alicia: let's bring in florida commissioner nicky freed.of all, i want to get your position on this, where do you stand on the battle between the governor and disney? >> here is the problem, this governor went out of his way to actually have a bench on a company that was not in the same light as his positioning and what this is going to do now is have a direct impact on the people that live in this community. they are going to have a direct impact on the amount of taxes they pay, the type of services that they get provided. we even see reports last week that there was conversation about lowering our bonding authority for aaa rating. that will have a drastic impact on the people of our state and how government works and it shows that we have potential instability of our economy. so this was dope as a knee-jerk reaction to teach disney a stay in your place otherwise we are going to come and harm you and the fact of the matter the people that are going to get harmed in this are people on the ground and those living in the community. alicia: as

and the florida legislature knew this.ublicans in the state house, and that republicans in the state senate actually did an analysis, that said the desantis map will diminish the ability -- of minority voters, that's why they originally passed a different map. they oppose the desantis map, it's only after desantis vetoed that and said it's my map or no map, that you saw the spineless, got loose republican leadership in the state house and the state senate say okay, we will go with your map. >> right, so they draw, >> right, so they draw, essentially, a constitutionally compliant map that doesn't take away this one black majority black seat, and that's when we're talking about sort of selecting their representatives. the language of the voting rights act, it's been integrated into state constitutions as well, as they think about making sure that african americans can elect representatives who are black, in majority minority districts. so desantis said no, you have to do this map that knocks out a black representative in the

demings of florida. the speaker pro tempore: pursuant to house resolution 1124, the gentlewoman from florida, mrs. demings, and a member opposed, each will control five minutes. the chair recognizes the gentlewoman from florida. mrs. demings: thank you so much, madam speaker. thank you for this opportunity to offer this amendment. we all know on both sides of the aisle that families across america and certainly in my home state of florida are working hard to make ends meet. but at the same time, we also see the biggest oil and gas companies racking up record profits. as a matter of fact, according to business insider, five company's first quarter profits alone are equivalent to almost 28% of what america spent to fill up their gas tanks in the same time period. now, just think about that. now, don't get me wrong. in america, people in business should have the opportunity to make a profit. but we must also make sure that corporations, especially during times of emergency and times of crisis, are not takin

florida offers other states on gun reform?gs that happened in 2018 after the tragedy of parkland, people in florida had had it with the inaction by officials here. if you remember in 2016, we had a devastating shooting at pulse nightclub that killed 49 people. florida needs immediately activated and demanded action. it was an election year. rick scott actually passed the extremist protection law, the red flag law and raised the minimum age requirement to 21, responding to the families of floridians that demanded their elected officials to act. i think that is one of the things that when i was in congress, if we can do this in florida which is a purple state, we can do that at the federal level. there is absolutely no reason why republican senators are refusing to pass these bills. let me just say that what is happening in america, inaction we are seeing is the greatest moral failure of our time. we need more from these officials. >> david, i think debbie makes a great point, which is about the urgency at the moment. at the sam

how did that florida legislation happen? how did the nra's preferred candidate, an a plus defender of the cause end up adopting common sense gun reform. it was the activists. the activists that came out in support of doing something. they came out of the marjory stoneman douglas shooting. the kids made it happened. they kept it in the spotlight. one that scott could not ignore even if he wanted to. this is a great example of how pressure works. politicians can afford to alienate some vote torious keep the nra happy but at some point that has to give. it is easy to feel that there is no way to make progress on this issue, particularly in the last ten days. but recent history tells us the change is in fact possible. that's not all by the way. since 2018, 14 states have passed what are called red flag laws, and these are the states. they allow loved ones or the police to petition the court to confiscate firearms from people who might be at risk from harming themselves or others. that too came about because of public pressure. e

david: are they suing the state of florida in any way?been thrown out. this is part of the political theater trying to attack a very popular governor by democratic activists in a political cycle. i think governor desantis has been fighting the fight and, look, elections have consequences. if people don't like the decisions the legislature, the governor or, for that matter, myself have made, the election in november is your opportunity to step up. david: they've invested decades and decades of work into building up disney world. is there any chance they would move out? >> here's what -- i feel like disney right now, they're on probation. if they color outside the lines, then there'll probably be more questions of what can be done to insure that they are still the type of partner that they were when that legislation was originally crafted, you know, back in the '60s. so, again, the florida legislature's a living, breathing organization with term limits, and they meet once a year, and they are a citizen-run legislature. all these individuals

and so this florida map, the desantis florida map was something that was not good for democrats.of a rejiggering of it because of the court decision, but we'll see. it's going to take some time. >> let's look closely. this is the lawson current district in the northern part of the state represented by an african american democrat. if you look over here, you see they drew the lines this way. they drew north/south lines and took the district away. this is the current 10th district represented by val demings. this is the current 10th district. it's a relative of almost a square. they did that, dispursing the voters to make -- it's clear what happens when you do that. we see knit other places as well. in this case a judge appointed by the current republican governor said appreciate the appointment, you're wrong. >> when the governor submited this map which was even more aggressive than the map the legislature put forward, it was clear that he was really reaching on this, and everyone who saw this map, including some of the republicans in the state, were clear about the fact that okay
