Florida State Senator Goes Full Gestapo on Bloggers!

From News Channel 8, Tampa, Florida... by Sam Sachs

“Florida State Senator Jason Brodeur wants bloggers who write about Gov. Ron DeSantis, Attorney General Ashley Moody, and other members of the Florida executive cabinet or legislature to register with the state or face fines.

“Brodeur’s proposal, Senate Bill 1316: Information Dissemination, would require any blogger writing about government officials to register with the Florida Office of Legislative Services or the Commission on Ethics.”

In the bill, Brodeur wrote that those who write “an article, a story, or a series of stories,” about “the Governor, the Lieutenant Governor, a Cabinet officer, or any member of the Legislature,” and receives or will receive payment for doing so, must register with state offices within five days after the publication of an article that mentions an elected state official.

“If another blog post is added to a blog, the blogger would then be required to submit monthly reports on the 10th of each month with the appropriate state office. They would not have to submit a report on months when no content is published.”

Editor’s Note: This bill has not become law… yet. If it does, God helps us, Florida, once one of the freest States in the Union, will lose its claim to fame. Even the sun won’t shine so bright in the Sunshine State.
