URGENT: FINAL VOTE ON TALLAHASSEE POWER GRAB TOMORROW AFTERNOON, the Florida House will have a FINAL vote on HB 655. This bill is a continued attempt by extremist legislators and big business to BLOCK local governments from passing essential working family ordinances. Remember that this bill: • • • •
Strips the home rule of local governments by restricting county level ordinances. Bans counties from passing living wage ordinances, domestic partner benefits, earned sick time benefits and any other pro-worker ordinance dealing with pay and benefits. Strikes down already established county ordinances like those above, which help working families. Will wipeout years of progress by local grass roots organizations to build stronger communities.
