This track has been part of my life since I was a teenager back in the late 90s and would love to see it reopened to the public
Scott supported: Urge IHRA to Acquire and Reopen Triple F Raceway for Public UseIf all the FWC board are land developers, that’s like putting foxes in charge of the henhouse—except the foxes are selling the henhouse to build condos. Instead of protecting wildlife, they’re paving it. Florida’s fish and wildlife don’t stand a chance when the people in charge see wetlands as future strip malls and retirement communities.
Robert supported: Reform the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation CommissionFlorida’s wild lands need us and we need them. We cannot survive without the ecological services they provide and people value the wild land more than they will ever value more golf courses and suburban sprawl in our beautiful state.
Matthew supported: Reform the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation CommissionI was born and raised in Florida, and every time I go back I am saddened by how much of the beauty and wilderness has been cut down to build another neighborhood or shopping center or highway. It's appalling. Save Florida's wild spaces and unique ecosystems.
Alexis supported: Reform the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation CommissionHaving commissioners overseeing conservation yet are affiliated with developers or are developers that build over wildlife habitats is a direct conflict of interest. No developer should be overseeing conservation efforts, much less being on the board that makes decisions like that!
Will supported: Reform the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commissionbuilding through natural lands is not ‘conservation’
Sean supported: Reform the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation CommissionAs a fisheries biologist who used to work for FWC, we need commissioners who support data driven, evidence based practices and policies. The biologists who work hard for way less pay than most other state wildlife agencies in the country give their energy and skills to collect robust data because we’re passionate about conservation. We are not interested in lining developers pockets, we want to see the wild areas of our state preserved, not turned into concrete. Our state government is a sham, appointing unqualified people when biologists work for years to be qualified enough to get jobs in our field.
Sara supported: Reform the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation CommissionWe are at a crucial tipping point in the wellbeing of not only this State's wildlife, but also its citizens. Mass overdevelopment threatens everywhere in Florida, like a disease spreading its reach across the far corners of our State. Local businesses and residents are being priced out of their homes and livelihood by cheap-construction neighborhoods replacing the agricultural and forested lands, and by corporate giants taking over the State. It is clear the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission gives the natural land and residents no regard in their decision making, and I call for the commissioners' resignations. How much longer will you pave over every inch of this state until you realize you went too far 15 years ago? Massive red tides, overpumping our Springs and rivers and polluting them with fertilizers and pesticides, reducing flows so they have no chance at recovery. This State isn't dying, it's being killed. And we know who the culprits are.
Lucas supported: Reform the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation CommissionAs a conservationist myself its hard to work with the FWC when their actions are constantly unaligned with what they represent. Biologists who have worked for the FWC for 5+ years are being paid $17 an hour and forced to work unpaid overtime so some rich people can pay golf in a dredged swamp. There is no room for greed in Florida's wildlife commissions.
Liz supported: Reform the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation CommissionYou’re not alone — a community of supporters is ready to back you.
