Unfortunately we have a governor who is more concerned about keeping Trump supporters happy than protecting citizens. Most recently he is banning local government from requiring masks. This is tremendous overreach of his office and goes against the guidance from the White House administration.

We elect our local leaders for a reason and without counties in Florida coming together to fight back, we are subject to his blatant disregard for science and mitigation efforts.

> His order denying local governments and schools the ability to implement mitigation efforts is a overreach and fraud. He is currently accepting emergency funds, yet claiming we are no longer in an emergency. All federal and FEMA funding should cease if he insists we are not in an emergency.
