TALLAHASSEE — All Voting is Local Florida State Director Brad Ashwell issued the following statement in response to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signing Senate Bill 90, which severely curtails Floridians’ freedom to vote:

All Voting is Local joined 20+ voting rights advocates in sending a letter to Florida Gov. DeSantis, urging him to veto Senate Bill 90.

Director of the non-profit, All Voting is Local Florida, Brad Ashwell, said the new changes make it harder for people to vote. “It’s a pretty radical change to voting laws in Florida, and it really does a lot to decrease accessibility to voting rather than increasing it," he said.

"SB 90 is a blatant violation of Floridians' freedom to vote and represents a direct backlash to last year's record-breaking turnout," said Florida State Director for All Voting is Local Brad Ashwell in a statement after the bill passed the House on Thursday night. "By erecting onerous barriers to request and return a vote-by-mail ballot, this legislature has made voting a test of stamina and resources rather than a statement of civic responsibility."
