FAQ
An ex post facto law would include a law that imposes a new or increased punishment on an act that occurred before the law took effect. As with double jeopardy, “the prohibition on ex post facto laws applies only to criminal or penal provisions.” Lescher v. Florida Dept. of Highway Safety & Motor Vehicles, 985 So.
Though each state has its own constitution, the U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land.
Through the leadership of Governor Reuben Askew, this initiative successfully added the Sunshine Amendment to Florida's constitution. The amendment mandated financial disclosure by public officials, imposed sweeping ethics reforms and created the Florida Commission on Ethics. It was our first, big win.
The "SUNSHINE AMENDMENT," adopted by Florida voters through a constitutional initiative in 1976 as Article II, Section 8, Florida Constitution, contains standards of ethical conduct and disclosures applicable to public officers and employees; it also requires the Legislature to adopt the code of ethics described above.
The Sunshine Protection Act would establish a permanent daylight saving time in the U.S., leading to later sunrises and sunsets during the four months in which most of the U.S. currently observes standard time, resulting in less sunlight in the morning hours and more sunlight in the evening ones.
Which agencies are subject to the Sunshine Act? The Act applies only to: (1) federal agencies headed by collegial bodies—i.e., boards, councils, and commissions—a majority of whose members are presidentially appointed and Senate confirmed; and (2) any subdivision of such an agency authorized to act on its behalf.
It was added to the Florida Constitution nearly 50 years ago by a statewide vote of the electorate. Floridians voted to empower themselves with the right of local self-government, or Home Rule. As the only form of voluntary government, Florida's municipalities are the embodiment of this right.
The Sunshine law requires that 1) meetings of boards or commissions must be open to the public; 2) reasonable notice of such meetings must be given, and 3) minutes of the meeting must be taken.
