If you don't believe global warming is real I challenge you to go stand out in the sun during the Dolphins' training camp practices in South Florida. I've done it this time of year for 20-plus seasons covering the Canes and Dolphins. This heat is unreal.

As a hurricane pummels Florida, remember a cornerstone of the #TrumpVanceProject2025 agenda is the complete dismantling of the National Weather Service and NOAA. mediamatters.org/project-2025/p…

Since night flight rules are lights out and no talking, so too should day/all flights be. We don't want to hear about your breakfast at full volume, Pierre. 🎶 I'm just a nighttime girl living in a lonely world. 🎵

Refusing to pay overtime is called wage theft and it’s a federal crime. Wantonly breaking the Federal Labor Standards Act is pretty much as anti-worker & anti-union as you can get. Looking at you Teamsters

Teamsters While it's a crime, wage theft is profoundly under-prosecuted (unlike petty theft). cbsnews.com/news/owed-empl… For Floridians interested in learning more about it in our state take a look here - floridapolicy.org/posts/wage-the…

Analyzing Economic Policy Institute data, we found that for most households (including a single adult working full time without kids), $13/hr isn't a living wage in any of FL's 67 counties. Affordability and quality of life are severely hampered for far too many. #minimumwage #livingwage

Assuming no one has informed the singer Twitter world yet, something is happening in St. Pete FL. I swear these karaokaers (sic?) are all ringers w classical voices who are either ex- or aspiring-Broadway stars, so employ these people but also is this the next vocal Comedy Store?

While FPI does not support any rollback of long-held child labor protections, the Legislature seeks to chip away at the protections put in place for working teens last legislative session. SB 918/HB 1225 (2025) go beyond what HB 49 originally proposed. Alexis Tsoukalas, MSSA/MSW, PhD

So Ron DeSantis steered $10 million of public money (perhaps illegally) to nonprofits that just happened to be two of the biggest donors to Ron DeSantis’ campaigns against citizen-led constitutional amendments to legalize marijuana and end Florida’s abortion ban.
