David Jolly proposes an Office of Civil Rights in the Governor’s Office if elected

Democratic gubernatorial candidate David Jolly proposes creating an Office of Civil Rights in the Governor’s Office to address voting rights, healthcare access, and education equity. The proposal comes amid efforts by the Ron DeSantis administration to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion programs through legislation and legal opinions. Sen. Shevrin Jones supports the initiative, citing Florida’s rollback of civil rights measures.
