Not sure too many restaurants could endure 11 inches of #HurricaneIdelia floodwater and manage to reopen the following day. Truly impressed, @Columbia1905 #Sarasota

Several of my sources reported large spikes in insurance costs over the next year, while my industry sources don't expect Florida's property insurance markets to see price decreases soon.

Today, many IndyStar journalists will begin withholding our bylines from our work indefinitely until Gannett takes our demand for a fair contract with fair pay seriously. We are fed up with dismal progress at the bargaining table since our contract expired almost three years ago.

🚨BREAKING NEWS:🚨 The Florida Times-Union is now on strike. Our journalists walked out of the building this morning in a show of solidarity against @Gannett’s unfair labor practices.

THE ARIZONA REPUBLIC GUILD IS WALKING OFF THE JOB 🧵
It's very simple, what @Gannett is offering us would leave some members with LESS money in their paychecks each week, and that is unacceptable. We've started a GoFundMe to help support our journalists bit.ly/AZ-GoFundMe

The Naples Daily News and The News-Press are walking out!
On Monday, journalists at our papers will hold a one-day strike. We have spent years trying to get a fair contract from Gannett, as executives hollowed out local newsrooms across the US.

Solidarity with our Florida union siblings!
🌅 THE PALM BEACH NEWS GUILD IS WALKING OUT 🌅
For almost 3 years, we have been bargaining for a fair contract so we can preserve our role as a resource in our community, a voice for the voiceless and a watchdog that holds the powerful accountable. gofundme.com/f/palm-beach-po…

Solidarity with our Florida union siblings!
THE TIMES-UNION IS GOING ON STRIKE.
We’re walking off the job after over four years of bargaining for fair wages, benefits and newsroom protections. It is clear that current Gannett management has no intention to bargain over these issues in good faith.

NEW: This has been an exhausting, heartbreaking legislative session for many Floridians.
This story begins with a transgender man showing lawmakers his self-harm scars and winds through the many moments such vulnerable testimony didn't make a difference. tallahassee.com/story/news/p…

New College only released these records after being sued, and still did not release many others. Records holders are simply ignoring the state's laws and following them only when someone has the wherewithal to take them to court. It's happening everywhere in Florida.
"Please call me... Alex Kelly from the Governors office would like to speak to you"
Public records released this week by New College provide more details on the involvement of a conservative New College alum in DeSantis' takeover of the school
