Governor Ron DeSantis vetoed the following bill:
- SB 1292 – Public Records (SB 1292 was contingent on the passage of SB 700 – Juvenile Justice, which did not pass the Legislature. Therefore, SB 1292 is a nullity.)
The firefighter-protection bill (SB 1092) had support from state Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis, who serves as the state fire marshal.
“Floridians depend on their local firefighters every day to come to their aid at a moment’s notice,” Sen. Aaron Bean, a Fernandina Beach Republican who sponsored the measure with Rep. Elizabeth Fetterhoff, R-DeLand, said in a statement after the bill passed in March.
“This bill ensures that we are coming to their aid every day to keep them safe from cancer-causing residue on their equipment.”
