Let me make sure I understand this correctly. In April 2022, I filed petitions with 63 Florida school districts asking them to remove the Bible from school classrooms and libraries. My reasoning was airtight: DeSantis had just signed HB 1467, empowering parents to challenge “obscene” materials. The Bible — rape, infanticide, bestiality, Psalm 137:9 (“Happy is the one who seizes …
When a Commissioner From Another City Shows Up to Tell Yours to Stay Put — That’s a Records Request
A live worked example using the Stevens method and Florida Chapter 119 There’s a story developing in Broward County right now. A city is in the middle of a high-stakes public safety decision — whether to break a decades-long contract with the Broward Sheriff’s Office and form its own police and fire departments.
