#Florida is my home, that I love and protect. We have such a diverse group of Floridians...politically, culturally, ethnically, and every way you measure it...it makes us beautiful, powerful and resilient. This year, my home has become inhospitable and ugly, at the hands of the majority of our state's politicians ... seeking their personal political aspirations instead of the preservation our rights, such as Freedom of Expression and Freedom of Choice. 

This is troublesome to me as a life-long resident/community member, as a father with children in our school systems, and as a business leader of several Florida based businesses that employ hundreds of people and attract hundreds of thousands of Florida travelers.

Regardless of our political views, #Americans and #Floridians don’t like being told what they are allowed to say and read.

The Stop Woke Act has no place in a #democracy, in #capitalism, or in a free world.

You can read more in my Opinion piece from the Miami Herald.  If it resonates with you, I’d ask that you please share it widely.  I need your help, Florida needs your help, and the free world needs your help.
