The LWVFL and other concerned organizations formed the Coalition after the Florida Constitution Revision Commission placed Amendment 8 on the November ballot. Amendment 8 linked three otherwise unrelated education proposals and then attempted to hide radical policy behind term limits, which polled well. The overall impact of this deceptive amendment would significantly impact local controlof our public schools.
The Coalition’s goal is to engage and educate voters on the true impactof Amendment 8. Don’t Take the Bait! Click here for our Coalition Facebook page to stay informed on this important issue. Click here for the LWVFL summary of Amendment 8, and what a Vote Yes or Vote No would do.
