WHEREAS, in 1989, the Florida Legislature enacted several statutes designed to address the issue of hate crimes. For example, Section 775.085 of the Florida Statutes was created to increase penalties for convictions of crimes where there was evidence of certain prejudice; and WHEREAS, in addition, the Florida Legislature enacted the Hate Crimes Reporting Act in Section 877.19 of the Florida Statutes that requires law enforcement agencies to report hate crimes to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) and, further, requires the Florida Attorney General to publish an annual summary of the reported data; and WHEREAS, the 1995 report of the Florida Attorney General states that a "hate crime is among the most insidious acts taken by one person against another, founded in prejudice and intolerance." The report defined a hate crime as "an act committed or attempted by one person or group against another person or group, or their property, that in any way constitutes an expression of hatred toward the victim based on his or her personal characteristics; and WHEREAS, under Section 775.085 of the Florida Statutes, criminal penalties are enhanced for certain hate-based acts. Reported hate crime offenses range in seriousness from vandalism and intimidation to aggravated battery and murder; and WHEREAS, there has been an increasing number of hate crimes against law enforcement officers, and such officers, as well as firefighters, emergency services personnel, and code enforcement officers should be protected under Florida laws that enhance penalties for hate crimes.

As we all know, our police officers put their lives on the line every day. At the same time, we expect them to be highly trained, consummately professional and self-controlled, and make the right decisions under extreme pressure at all times. We require, therefore, highly talented, intelligent and capable individuals. In order for such individuals to seek a career in law enforcement to be "worth the risk" to themselves personally and for their families, I think it is appropriate to offer them higher protections on par with the higher risk that they face as compared to other public servants. In addition to law enforcement, I believe it is appropriate to extend this type of legislation to firefighters, EMS workers, and code enforcement officers. Background There is a national effort among some law enforcement advocates to equate assaults and other actions against police officers and other public servants with the long-standing notion of hate crime. Hate crime legislation, both at the federal and state level, is designed to protect particularly vulnerable populations from hateful violence because of their status (e.g., race, sexual orientation, etc.) The thinking here is that law enforcement in particular, which has been targeted directly with violence based solely on their uniform, should have this same kind of statutory protection. The South Miami resolution urges our State Legislature to pass legislation providing for enhanced penalties when police, firefighters, or EMS workers are assaulted on this same theory that the crime is more heinous and deserving of a higher penalty because of the special status of these public servants. I would add code enforcement officers to the categories of employees that should be protected as set forth in the attached proposed Resolution. I would also add the proposed amendment to Section 775.085 of the Florida Statutes as legislative priority on our lobbying agenda to advocate for such a bill. I know that this legislation is not a complete solution to the problem, which is far reaching and complex. However, if it were to have any impact on criminal behavior it would be very worthwhile.

The new law would extend the state's Hate Crime statute to include the targeting of police officers, firefighters, EMS and other emergency service personnel. Combee said he would begin looking for co-sponsors as early as today,before he is able to file the legislation. "Our first responders deserve every protection we can afford them. They deserve to be protected in the same manner they protect us. If you target the police,for whatever reason,your crime will be prosecuted as an act of hate. This new"Blue Lives Matter" Law will expand Florida's Hate Crime statutes to cover our first responders and emergency services personnel and include additional jail time for anyone who engages in such heinous activity," Combee stated. "This is a simple issue. Those who protect us deserve protection. When they leave their families to keep ours safe,they should know we appreciate the dedication and the sacrifice," Combee concluded. Details on the law will be released after it clears bill drafting,but Representative Combee wanted to start the process early so once the legislature meets next year, the law would get the jump start and attention it deserves. ### MIAMI BEACH City of Miami Beach, 1700 Convention Center Drive,Miami Beach, Florida 33139,www.miamibeachf.gov Office of the City Clerk Tel: 305-673-7411 July 26, 2016 Senator Lizbeth Benacquisto 326 Senate Office Building 404 South Monroe Street Tallahassee, FL 32399 Dear Senator Benacquisto, Attached please find a copy of City of Miami Beach Resolution No. 2016-29515: A Resolution Urging The Florida Legislature To Amend Section 775.085 Of The Florida Statutes To Include Enhanced Penalties For Felonies And Misdemeanors Committed Against Law Enforcement Officers, Firefighters, Emergency Services Personnel, And Code Enforcement Officers Due To Their Employment Status.

SUAREZ MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COMMISSIONER DISTRICT 7 www.miamidade.govidistrict07/ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MEDIA CONTACT: July 19, 2016 Yvonne Maffia ymaffiaCc�miamidade.ciov Office: (305) 375-5680 PRESS RELEASE Miami, Florida — Due to the recent murders of law enforcement officers throughout the Country, Miami-Dade County Commissioner Xavier L. Suarez proposes to classify any threats made against the life of any law enforcement officer as a felony in the same way as the law criminalizes any threats made against the President. Yesterday, Commissioner Suarez proposed the idea on his twitter account stating: IIIXavier L Suarez XavierLSuarez1 22h Threatening President is a class E felony under United States Code Title 18, Section 871 ; our police officers should be equally protected. The statute specifies that a prison sentence of up to five years could be imposed for threats made against the life of President of the United States and /or the Vice President or other officer who is next in line of succession of the President. On Sun. July 17, 2016, Commissioner Suarez participated in an event organized by Dr. Marvin Dunn and the Board of the Historic Hampton House honoring fallen law enforcement officers. In a speech given at the event, the Commissioner stated: We, the people of Miami, will not tolerate that kind of insanity. We stand with our police. We are part of our police. In Miami, which has suffered racial strife as much as any city in America, we, civilians and government and law enforcement, from the highest elected official to the most recent refugee to arrive to this land of opportunity and hope and democracy, are one people.
