As someone, who has been in the service industry for years, many of us depend on the money for living expenses and to radically change a long standing item drastically impacts the pockets of citizens.
Thomas supported: Save Downtown Fort Lauderdale's Entertainment District.Save Our Nightlife, Jobs, & CultureI used to own a small business downtown, an escape room, and I’ve stayed involved in the local event and nightlife scene ever since. I care deeply about this city and the people who keep it running late into the night.<br>
<br>
What’s happening with the 4AM licenses and the zoning changes behind it feels like a quiet plan to reshape Downtown without hearing from the people who helped build its identity. And once it’s gone, it’s not coming back.<br>
<br>
I’m signing this because Fort Lauderdale deserves better than backroom decisions and silent erasure.
Jaime supported: Save Downtown Fort Lauderdale's Entertainment District.Save Our Nightlife, Jobs, & CultureMy name is Ian Lowe.<br>
For 20+yrs I’ve worked at Original Fat Cats in Downtown Fort Lauderdale. It was clear to me my first time on 2nd St, the district had already been the late night destination for decades before me. HISTORIC. And I loved it! I started as a too scrawny young door guy and worked my way through every position a bar/restaurant could have. All the way up to now being a proud owner. I’ve seen the district’s history and significance to the city first hand. <br>
<br>
In a Commission meeting just weeks away they will vote on a proposed restructuring of the Downtown Entertainment District. AND ONLY OUR DISTRICT. Which could take away the essential 4am closing time and ending the late night historic heart of Fort Lauderdale. Destroying many businesses and the lively hoods of so many! Meanwhile, really we are just the next step to clearing the path for giant towers in the area. <br>
<br>
Whether you were looking for late night food, celebrating an occasion, dance at the club, listen to live music, grab a nightcap or unwind after work. Downtown and those 2-4am hours have always been there! <br>
<br>
I ask you to please sign and share our petition! Email your Commissioners!<br>
Save our Historic Downtown Entertainment District!!

Russell supported: Save Downtown Fort Lauderdale's Entertainment District.Save Our Nightlife, Jobs, & CultureFt.lauderdale is one of the few places in south Florida that doesn’t sleep. These are the places where not just tourists but locals go to get away from the quiet and enjoy music and entertainment until the sun comes up, these is who we are and this is why people come here for the experience. We cannot change it, our workers who can sacrifice the time depend on their jobs to keep the spirit alive and the rest of us depend on them to keep the entertainment going. Loosing this would economically catastrophic to too many people
Derrick supported: Save Downtown Fort Lauderdale's Entertainment District.Save Our Nightlife, Jobs, & CultureWith cost of living exploding throughout the city and the state, the service industry workers should be able to capitalize, and live comfortably in the community they helped grow. They are a vital part of the community and should be infringed upon by the bureaucrats that were elected to serve them.
Eric supported: Save Downtown Fort Lauderdale's Entertainment District.Save Our Nightlife, Jobs, & CultureAs someone, who has been in the service industry for years before coming to Fort Lauderdale, I depended on the money for living expenses and totally support and understand the idea that to radically change a long standing item drastically impacts the pockets of citizens working in the industry.<br>
<br>
Taking away these licenses would wholly damage the culture of Fort Lauderdale that we all love and enjoy so much. Hold strong and keep these licenses in place.
Hunter supported: Save Downtown Fort Lauderdale's Entertainment District.Save Our Nightlife, Jobs, & CultureI'm a pharmacist with over 17 years of retail pharmacy experience. I've seen first hand how detrimental and dangerous PBMs are to patient care. They can deny life-saving patient care based on numbers, even if it is a medication that the patient has been on for years; they can and will change their formularies to serve themselves instead of the patient. <br>
<br>
Additionally, forcing patients to use in network pharmacies can really limit patient's options in pharmacies. Preferred retail chains like CVS and Walgreens are also set to close hundreds of stores nationwide which could further limit patient's accessibility to reliable pharmacy care; particularly if they live in rural areas. This can lead to further delays in treatment and access to life saving medications.<br>
<br>
Patient's should always have a choice when it comes to their care; small independent pharmacies are able to provide personalized patient care and treat patients like people, not numbers like PBMs do.
Casey supported: Oppose Maryland Senate Bill SB306 to Support Injured WorkersI have been a Maryland resident my entire life. For the past 19 years, I have been a dedicated and hardworking employee of a public safety company in Maryland.<br>
Unfortunately, I faced a significant challenge when I was injured on the job. Despite this setback, I am still dedicated and determined to do my job. Currently, I am utilizing the services of RescueMeds an Independent Pharmacy, to obtain my doctor’s prescribed prescription medications. I would like to say, “Say No to Senate Bill 306”. While using RescueMeds, I have a choice of what day I would like for my prescription medications to be delivered, and it doesn’t take a week to get it. This is a very beneficial service for me, being I am in the office Monday through Thursday and being home on Friday allows me the opportunity to have my package delivered and me signing for it. I find it disturbing that Legislation wants to take away small Independent Pharmacies. Not only is it important to have any day for delivery, but it also cuts down on the cost of workers' compensation prescription medications.<br>
I am asking the Maryland Senate, DON’T do away with our Independent Pharmacies. Senate Bill 306 will cost more for our counties and taxpayers, and what about the individuals who are on Medicare and Medicaid, they can’t afford to pay more for prescription drugs.
Sharon supported: Oppose Maryland Senate Bill SB306 to Support Injured WorkersDuring the pandemic we learned who our essential workers are. People who were in charge of keeping society functioning and running while the world was collapsing. Our economy has taken a toll and the only people truly affected have been the working class and those essential workers. This isn’t fair and it’s time for change.
Claudia supported: End the Corporate Greed that is punishing delivery drivers and waitstaff, for good.You’re not alone — a community of supporters is ready to back you.
