Retweeted by Rep. Carlos G Smith The lawsuit against @GovRonDeSantis ban on school mask mandates boils down to this…
Concerned parents: ‘Please wear a mask’, my child is vulnerable
DeSantis administration: ‘Masking is child abuse’ 🗑🗑🗑mynews13.com/fl/orlando/new…ALD
It’s almost as if the entire state; parents, school districts, and businesses, have sailed on and no longer care about @GovRonDeSantis. 🚢

Orange Mayor Demings: Vaccine-hesitant ‘should be getting off the fence’ after FDA’s full approval of Pfizer shots bit.ly/2WikVpg
Retweeted by Rep. Carlos G Smith Hey @GovRonDeSantis:
You succeeded in banning mask mandates, vaccine passports & local COVID rules while pushing misinformation & enabling Floridians to ignore commonsense safety measures, which cost lives in order to boost your presidential ambitions.
Was it worth it?

The absurd controversy over school masks in Florida isn’t politics as usual— it’s vindictive and dangerous!
Republican lawmakers like @VoteRandyFine are openly threatening to “hurt” your child’s school if they defy @GovRonDeSantis.

The City of @WinterParkFla has joined Orlando in asking residents to conserve water due to the COVID surge.
Hard to believe the same liquid oxygen needed to treat hospitalized COVID patients also treats our water, but we must conserve to save lives! 💧�fox35orlando.com/news/winter-pa…Tb
"I can tell you I don't do this for money."
Following the vote, I asked Sarasota School Board chair Shirley Brown about the likelihood the Florida Department of Education will try to strip her salary because of the vote to bring back a mask mandate.

Retweeted by Rep. Carlos G Smith The vaccine protects against serious illness, hospitalization and death from COVID-19.
If you haven't gotten the vaccine yet, this weekend is a great time to get it to protect yourself from the impacts of the virus.
Retweeted by Rep. Carlos G Smith Turns out, cancelling unemployment benefits and forcing families to starve doesn’t help jobless workers find work.

The city of Orlando is asking residents to reduce water consumption IMMEDIATELY. Liquid oxygen used to treat water is being diverted to the hospitals to treat COVID patients. They believe if water consumption doesn’t change, water treatment could hit a critical point in a week.
Retweeted by Rep. Carlos G Smith URGENT: Orlando's @OUCreliableone water supply is facing a COVID-related shortage!
Liquid oxygen treats critically ill patients AND treats our water! The hospitalization surge is depleting supply!
Do your part:
✅Get vaccinated💉
✅Conserve water💦wftv.com/news/local/ora…Sx

Retweeted by Rep. Carlos G Smith The district-wide average is 7.6% of parents opting kids out of masks during a deadly pandemic. Some schools are over 20%, some lower.

Retweeted by Rep. Carlos G Smith If only we had a Governor to help us COMBAT vaccine hesitancy rather than promote it. 🤔
