I'm originally from a small FL town like this. Amendment 3 would devastate local communities like this. Costs = up, services = down, and then... people = gone.

Under Trump, U.S. federal debt has surpassed 100% of GDP for the first time since WWII.
And it's on track to beat that all-time record by 2030.

Ossoff: "Here's what's going to happen tonight: the world's most famous sore loser will deliver a prime-time presidential sour grapes address to pursue his 6-year-old grievances about the 2020 election, while his war in the Middle East spirals out of control and the cost of living continues to rise for Americans across the country. I expect the president to reheat debunked conspiracy theories about the repeatedly litigated and audited and confirmed 2020 presidential election in Georgia, an election that Donald Trump lost. And let me be very clear about this: if the President declares Georgia's election illegitimate, or if the President declares Georgia's sitting United States Senators illegitimate, he is declaring Georgia voters illegitimate. It's Donald Trump who tried to defraud Georgia voters in that election, Donald Trump who tried to commit election fraud when he called Georgia's Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger -- and it was caught on tape, and you should play the tape to your viewers today -- and badgered and bullied Georgia's top election official to 'find him' the votes that he needed to win in a state where he had lost."

NEW: We’re on the verge of the biggest power company merger in history. It comes at the worst possible time as data centers are driving up electricity bills.
NextEra is trying to buy Dominion Energy, which serves the nation’s largest concentration of hyperscale data centers, and create a $400 billion energy monopoly.
NextEra already owns Florida Power & Light, which built its business on gouging customers. Almost 30% of every FPL customer’s bill goes straight to profit – 2x a normal utility. In 2024, FPL cut power to 1.3 million homes.
NextEra claims the merger will improve customer experiences, but the monopoly would just make it harder for regulators to hold companies accountable and lower rates.

New @TheFloridaTrib | When Floridians go to the polls in November to decide whether to cut themselves a break on property taxes, they may well be deciding to cut the lifeline of one of the state’s endangered species: its small towns.

Unfortunately the states in the South which for the most part are the poorest will become paved over havens for the elites and corporations to do what they want. It has been heading that way for years.
