On Thursday, June 15, 2023 in Fort Pierce, FL, Governor DeSantis signed SB 2500, better known as the Appropriations bill or the budget. In response to the signing of SB 2500, Florida Senator Rosalind Osgood (D- Tamarac) issued the following statement Friday:
“After undergoing the Governor’s veto pen, local projects in Broward County have successfully secured funding to enhance the well-being and livelihoods of our constituents. However, it is deeply disheartening to witness cities like Fort Lauderdale and Lauderhill being vetoed out during the allocation process when the need to help our communities is so great within District 32. It is imperative that we ensure equitable distribution of resources among all cities within the State of Florida.”
