Press release announcing the Pensacola demand letter as the third action in a coordinated statewide campaign, following demand letters to Broward County and City of Fort Lauderdale. Frames the Fiesta of Five Flags as a textbook SB 1134 trigger — the organizer’s own mission statement supplies the ethnic reference verbatim. Quotes Stevens on the “Malicious Compliance Express” and the political geometry of the Legislature banning the things it loves.
Formal demand served on Pensacola City Attorney Adam Cobb targeting the City’s decades-long municipal support for the Fiesta of Five Flags / Fiesta Pensacola — one of the oldest heritage festivals in Florida. The demand identifies three independent statutory triggers under § 166.04971: official action (the Mayor’s annual “Surrender of the City” ceremony), public funding (Downtown Pensacola Improvement Board payments, City service costs), and municipal promotion (Visit Pensacola). Demands a written compliance review, corrective action guidance, and production of public records within 30 days.
