Charlie Crist banks $347K in Q1 as he mulls next political step
U.S. Rep.
Charlie
Crist is sitting on more than $646,000 in his federal campaign account for reelection to Florida’s 13th Congressional District in 2022, according to the latest financial filings with the Federal Elections Commission.
In the
first quarter of 2021 covering Jan. 1 through March 31, Crist raised $347,188. After accounting for $120,000 in expenditures during that period, Crist grew his federal account by about $227,000.
Crist is so far unopposed for reelection next year, but that’s almost certain to change, especially with reapportionment after the 2020 census expected to alter district boundaries, potentially skewing Crist’s existing district more to the right.
Every April 7, people across the country celebrate National Beer Day, a day that recognizes the most widely consumed alcoholic beverage in the world.
The holiday s origins extend all the way back to 1919 when Congress passed the 18th Amendment, which banned the manufacture, sale and transportation of alcohol in the U.S. This marked the beginning of the Prohibition era.
But 14 years later, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Cullen-Harrison Act, which made selling and consuming low-alcohol beverages, including beer, legal again.
The act passed on March 22, 1933, according to Time.com, but it didn t officially go into effect until April 7, 1933.
National Beer Wholesalers Association reported that in 2019, the U.S. beer industry sold 203.1 million barrels of beer (1 barrel contains 31 gallons).
