2017-18 Restoring Floridia's Right to Privacy

The Privacy Amendment was adopted in 1980 by Floridians in order to protect themselves from the government’s increasing ability to gather personal information through increasingly modern investigative technologies. However, in 1989 it was twisted by the Florida Supreme Court to create a fundamental right to abortion for a minor girl.  Since that time, Florida’s Privacy Amendment has been seen as a right to abortion and not as a right to informational privacy.

2017-18 Florida CRC

Once every twenty years, Florida's Constitution provides for the creation of a thirty-seven member revision commission for the purpose of reviewing Florida's Constitution and proposing changes for voter consideration. The Constitution Revision Commission (CRC) is composed of the Attorney General, fifteen appointees from the Governor, nine appointees from the Florida Senate President, nine appointees from the Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives and three appointees from the Chief Justice of the Florida Supreme Court. The CRC meets for approximately one year, holding public hearings, examining the Florida Constitution, identifying issues, performing research and possibly recommending changes to the Florida Constitution. Any amendments proposed by the CRC would be placed on the 2018 General Election ballot. Any amendments placed on the ballot by the CRC would have to secure 60 percent approval by voters to be added to the Florida Constitution.

Florida Alliance for Choices in Education

Florida Alliance for Choices in Education (F.A.C.E.) was founded in 2010 as a means to expand school choice options with fair and equal access whether the option is public, private or home school. Currently there are barriers in place that prevent parents from accessing the best school choice option for their child.  Parents from all areas of school choice need to unite with one voice so barriers can be removed to help all Florida children receive the education that best meets their needs.
