Key Messaging

Don’t take away the power of communities.

Citizens have and can impose term limits on county commissioners; they don’t need interference from Tallahassee to do so.

One-size doesn’t fit all.

While term limits may work in one county that doesn’t mean it will work in another county with different needs and perspectives. Let the voters decide what is best for their county.

Your county may already have term limits

Twelve counties in Florida have already imposed term limits on their commissioners. Yet, Tallahassee wants to change voter’s decision. Tell them no!
