In response to DeSantis’ decision to postpone the Florida Cabinet and Clemency board meetings yet again, the Florida Democratic Party Chair Terrie Rizzo released the following statement:
“It is completely unacceptable that DeSantis continues to ignore his constitutional responsibility to convene the Florida Cabinet. Not only is DeSantis failing to resolve critical issues facing Florida during a time of crisis, he is also denying Floridians, time and time again, the opportunity to restore their voting rights through the clemency process. I commend Commissioner Fried for fighting to see that the Cabinet works as it is supposed to do and continuing to push to address the pressing issues facing our state.”
