PRESS RELEASE
On December 18th, in a 4 to 3 ruling, the Florida Supreme Court consisting of Gov Charlie Crist's two new appointees, narrowly approved a proposed constitutional amendment for placement on the 2010 ballot that discriminates against the First Amendment rights of Florida active duty military and National Guard who are deployed out of state. The amendment also discriminates against disabled, housebound Florida voters. If approved by 60% of the electorate, the provision will become part of the Florida Constitution.
Florida Hometown Democracy plans on fighting this outrageous decision by filing a motion of rehearing.
