late during the week so we're changing it up! Besides, the
holidays are coming and things get crazy. 
Come and relax with us for a couple hours to talk about

SO WHAT’S HAPPENING WITH AMENDMENT 4 
AND WHAT YOU CAN DO

This article addresses the question about actions County SOE‘s must take
 to implement provisions in SB7066 that limit the restoration of 
Voting rights to returning citizens.

The effective date of this bill was over one year ago and the FL Secretary of State is still struggling with how to gather court data on felony convictions and payments of fines and restitution.

A State court has already expressed its reservations and may overturn this law.
According to Senator Bradley, the Legislature may be forced to address this issue again in 2020. It's currently blocked by a judge but...

HB6007 has already been filed to remove language requiring full payment of certain fines & fees.  A companion bill in the Senate is needed.
SO, CALL SENATOR HUTSON AND TELL HIM
HONOR THE WILL OF THE VOTERS AND
FILE A COMPANION BILL.
SENATOR HUTSON: 386-446-7610

your state legislators to vote on issues important to us as UUs.  
The next day we meet with our legislators or their staff in their offices.   
Lodging (for UU members only)is included free of charge 
at the local Days Inn. Several members have already attended 
and have found it a very interesting, informative experience.  
The antidote to despair is action – 
and actions such as this can be very healing.

Blue Wave Coalition of St. Johns County
Fall NPA Outreach Canvass

St. Johns County has nearly as many non-party affiliated (NPA) voters 
as Democrats, but many of them are left-leaning. Join us as 
we reach out to left-leaning NPAs
 and offer them the opportunity to change parties so they can vote in the
 March Presidential Preference Primary!  
As a canvasser, you will be paired with another person and visit
 just 20 homes of targeted voters. 
All training and materials will be provided, along with
 snacks and refreshments. 

We will use a strategy that will help us first identify whether the voter 
is a Trump supporter. If they are not, we'll remind them that Florida 
is a closed primary state and if they would like to help Democrats 
pick someone to oppose him, they need to register as a DEM.
  
We will have voter registration forms on hand to facilitate party changes.
We are likely to have some pretty interesting conversations! 
Let's have fun experimenting with this strategy -- Blue Tsunami's all around 
for returning canvassers! 

Date: 10/26/2019 (Sat.)
Time: 9:00am - 12:00pm EDT
Location: 143 Appaloosa Avenue, St Augustine FL 32095
