Looking Ahead: With Legislative Session in full-swing we must advocate as ONE Broward to protect Home Rule. With 60+ pieces of proposed legislation threatening preemptions, our ability to govern at the municipal level could be drastically reduced post-Session. Home Rule shouldn’t be treated as a convenience. At the onset of COVID-19 state leaders left tough decisions regarding closures and mask mandates up to local governments, then later rescinded it by stripping away the ability for local governments to issue fines. Please contact your state representatives. Let them know that we sent them to Tallahassee to protect Home Rule, not jeopardize it.
