TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Ron DeSantis on Friday rescinded 46 appointments made by his predecessor Rick Scott in the final days of his administration, including Andrew Pollack, whose daughter Meadow was killed in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting.

 

Pollack, who has been vocal on school safety issues, was appointed to the Board of Education by the outgoing governor.

 

He appeared in a campaign ad for Scott during Scott’s successful run for U.S. Senate last year and backed his approval of a bill adding school safety measures and restricting gun sales.

 

Among the other notable recalled appointees are Carlos Beruff and Tom Grady, both Scott loyalists.

Gov. Ron DeSantis called on the Florida Legislature to repeal a ban on smoking medical marijuana and also make it easier for businesses to participate in the market, warning that if lawmakers do not act he will cease to defend provisions of a medical marijuana law that have been challenged in court.

DeSantis accused the GOP-controlled Legislature of failing to follow the will of Florida voters, who overwhelmingly approved an amendment to the state constitution in 2016 that legalized medical marijuana.

“When over 70 percent of Florida voters vote in favor of medical use of marijuana for people with really serious, debilitating conditions that is about as big a majority as you can get in this day and age,” DeSantis said during a press conference in Winter Park. “And it’s my judgment that what the Florida Legislature has done to implement the people’s will has not done it in accordance with what the amendment envisioned.”
