Florida Vote No on Fracking Bills
NO on HB 1205/SB 1468 and HB 1209/SB 1582. These bills would allow more dangerous fracking in our state, and prevent Floridians from knowing what chemicals are being used in the process.

Rally Against The KKK In Tallahassee
Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and other groups will be rallying against recent Klan activity in Tallahassee and North Florida on April 9. A Ku Klux Klan chapter has been flyering in Tallahassee neighborhoods, passing out racist and Islamophobic messages in an attempt to recruit. Recently it was revealed that three KKK members who worked for the Florida Department of Corrections were plotting to murder a black prisoner.
Students will rally at Florida State University’s Westcott Fountain at 7:00 p.m. and will then march to the steps of the Old Capitol. here

Support for medical marijuana, 84% among Florida voters
New poll came out that showed support for medical marijuana, in general,
has reached
has reached
84% among Florida voters.
While we're not surprised support is
increasing, we have to take these numbers with some caution - as we learned in
2014 there's a big difference between general support for the concept of medical
marijuana, and actual support for the ballot amendment itself. (Especially when
voters are being told outright lies by our well-funded opposition.) In fact, a
good number of our opponents last year - including two key spokespeople for the
No on 2 side - expressed support for medical marijuana in
general.
For that reason, we have to mobilize, right now -
projecting a reasonably close race. More (and younger) voters vote in
presidential years, and that will help us - but not to the tune of 84%.
Please help us by signing the petition, signing up as a volunteer, and contributing to our outreach so we can do in this
next election what legislature should be doing
right now!
right now!
