Good job, Governor Ron!

A private right of action for Floridian citizens against tech
companies that violate this condition.

Fines of $100,000 per day levied on tech companies that suspend
candidates for elected office in Florida from their platforms.
-
Daily fines for any tech company “that uses their content and user-
related algorithms to suppress or prioritize the access of any
content related to a political candidate or cause on the ballot.”
-
Greater transparency requirements.
-
Disclosure requirements enforced by Florida’s election authorities
for tech companies that favor one candidate over another.
