Dear Vice Chair Alford,

I'm a mother who fears for my family in a warming world. 

Please ask Governor DeSantis to rethink his decision to deny Floridians the benefits of much-needed funds to our counties and municipalities.

As you may know, Governor DeSantis has refused to allow state level spending of 350 million Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) dollars, which would have gone to building resilience to extreme weather events in Florida counties and municipalities. This money is coming out of Floridians tax dollars and may be sent to states like California and New York!

In a year of extreme weather events including ocean temperatures of 100 degrees, heat indexes well over 100 degrees, along with the devastation caused by 2002 Hurricanes Ian and Nicole, and Hurricane Idalia just a few weeks ago, the Governors rejection feels especially ill-advised.

Please contact the Governor and ask him to change direction and free up these desperately needed funds!

Sincerely,

Jody berman

Pompano Beach, Florida
