Thank you for writing Governor Charlie Crist regarding the City of Miami Beach's
recent resolution supporting House Bill 397 and Senate Bill 2012 which prohibit
discrimination against persons based upon sexual orientation, gender identity or
expression, pregnancy, and familial status under the Florida Civil Rights Act of 1992 and
thereby creating a prohibition against those who discriminate on these impermissible
grounds; directing the City Clerk to transmit certified copies of this resolution to Governor
Charlie Crist, the President of the Florida Senate, and the Speaker of the Florida House
of Representatives; and directing the city administration to include the support of these
bills in its 2009 Legislative priorities. The Governor appreciated receiving 2009-27058
and asked me to respond on his behalf.
The Governor realizes how vital it is that state and local leaders, like you and
your colleagues, continue to put the best interests of their citizens forward. Your
continued efforts and dedication to Florida are greatly appreciated.
Again, thank you for taking the time to write to Governor Crist. Your thoughts are
very important to hirn.
Sincerely,
Aundra Bryant
Office of Policy and Budget
Executive Office of the Governor
