Editorial: Legislative session s limited access darkens Florida Sunshine Week

During a normal session of the Florida Legislature, the halls of the Capitol and the House and Senate office buildings are filled with advocates, constituents and lobbyists, all hoping to get face time to persuade their elected officials on any given issue. The constituents come from all walks of life, and they typically come to Tallahassee to have their issues heard. Not this year. This year’s session is anything but normal. The pandemic has become a rationale that has turned “open government” on its proverbial ear. For a state with a still iconic public records and open meetings law, the Legislature is on lockdown when it comes to conducting people’s business. At the moment, it is easier for coronavirus to get into the Capitol than constituents.
