The FL House's Civil Justice Subcommittee just unanimously approved HB 903 to reform FL's driver’s license suspension policies. Two million Floridians (1 in 8 drivers!) have a suspended license. FFJC's

In Florida, most driver's license suspensions are for unpaid fines and fees. This counter-productive practice wastes public safety resources and makes it harder for people to pay their fines. Please support HB 903: https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2020/903 …pic.twitter.com/ZnNFj3QXj5

It's time to stop punishing poverty. Most U.S. states take away someone's driver's license just because they can't afford to pay the fines & fees for a minor violation.

Florida needs to reform its cruel & counterproductive driver's license suspension laws. Florida's forcing people to make an impossible choice: stop driving—and lose access to work & basic necessities—or keep driving and risk criminal charges & more fines. https://finesandfeesjusticecenter.org/story-map/florida-drivers-license-suspensions/ …pic.twitter.com/CLTIDQdbXd

It’s time to stop taking away people’s driver's licenses just because they don’t have money. We're leading a campaign in Florida—where 2 million people have a suspended license—to end this cruel and counterproductive practice.

#FreetoDrive: "People lose their jobs, they aren't able to get new jobs, they lose income. We know that people are still driving, because what other choice do you have when you don't have access to public transportation?"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QscMZPd9ft4&feature=youtu.be … -

@IJ also found that ticketing residents in order to raise revenue harms perceptions of fairness and legitimacy in government. About 50% of people who were ticketed said they trusted police to "do what is best," vs 70% of those who weren't ticketed. https://ij.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Taxation-by-Citation-FINAL-USE.pdf …pic.twitter.com/szXCxfwrBP

@akheils: "A 1% increase in black population is associated with a 5% increase in per capita revenue from fines." Additionally, reliance on f&f is higher in black communities served by whiter police departments. https://www.citylab.com/transportation/2019/10/cities-with-more-black-residents-rely-more-on-traffic-tickets-and-fines-for-revenue/600430/?utm_term=2019-10-23T17%3A44%3A22&utm_campaign=the-atlantic&utm_medium=social&utm_content=edit-promo&utm_source=facebook …@CityLab@ConversationUSpic.twitter.com/jaPAQIF5xH
