As One
Pensacola Opera celebrates the transgender community
by molly Williams Pensacola opera Photo by Meg Burke Photography In partnership with Sunday’s Child and friend of the opera Diane Peterson, Pensacola Opera presents a unique multimedia double feature. Join us for a coming-of-age story of a transgender woman as she finds herself in As One, performed for one weekend only, Nov. 1 through 3. A journey of self-discovery, As One tells the story of Hannah as she realizes and uncovers her true self. With evocative music by Laura Kaminsky and a stirring libretto by Mark Campbell and Kimberly Reed, As One has quickly become the most performed contemporary opera in North America. This Florida premiere production will bring the audience onto the Pensacola Little Theatre mainstage for an intimate performance consisting of two singers (Robert Wesley Mason and Elise Quagliata, sharing the role of Hannah) and the Polymnia String Quartet, surrounded by an original film projected behind them to create the trans-
formative atmosphere. Each performance of As One will be preceded by a free showing of Kimberly Reed’s autobiographical documentary Prodigal Sons. In this film, Kimberly attends her twenty-year high school reunion ready to reintroduce herself to her small Montana hometown as a transgender woman. Exploring questions of sexual orientation, identity, severe trauma and love, the candid, sometimes bruising footage takes a tender but unflinching look at identity and the past, examining what it means to become someone new. In conjunction with our special production of As One, Pensacola Opera is also proud to partner with the Gulf Coast Transgender Alliance and Strive to host an art exhibit titled Identity in Focus. The event was inspired by Portland Opera’s photo series titled “As I am,” which brought in transgender members of the Portland community for a series of interviews and studio portraits. By partnering with the Gulf Coast Transgender Alliance here in Pensacola, the opera spoke with transgender members of the local community and created the gallery
we are titling “Identity in Focus.” The opera As One discusses the struggles and challenges that the main character goes through and the goal was to showcase the joy and life that is at the end of that journey of self-discovery. What we had noticed is that when you look for images of individuals who have transitioned, there is always a seriousness to it, a focus on the strength it takes to find yourself, but people are so much more than their journeys. They are dynamic, kind, hilarious, whimsical, fabulous and imaginative, all of which are words that the models chose to have displayed next to their photos. Not only that, but our models are our own neighbors that live and thrive in Pensacola. The opera brought in seven transgender individuals and provided them with
Pensacola Opera likes to host panel discussions outside of the operas to help provide context and give their patrons a better understanding of how the pieces that they are about to see apply to real life. For As One, the opera is hosting four panel discussions in total, three prior to the opening of As One and one after the weekend Nov. 5, to close out how the community should move forward. Wednesday, October 9 | 6:00 PM at the Pensacola Opera Center Being a Good Neighbor An introduction to the transgender community

free professional hair and makeup, done by Haley Mitchell, and a 30-minute photoshoot around Pensacola provided by Meg Burke Photography. These photos will be displayed at each of the free panel discussions at the Opera Center during the month of October before being moved to Pensacola Little Theatre during the performance on the mainstage. The exhibit will be set up so that it can be walked around and showcase our models laughing in the outfits that they said makes them feel the most comfortable in, some by themselves and others with their loved ones. Special thanks to sponsors of the Pensacola Opera for their generous support: Sunday’s Child and Diane Peterson; in memory of her son and husband, Sean and Brad Peterson.

Fire danger information for Gulf Islands National Seashore High temperatures and a lack of precipitation in recent weeks have created very dry fuel conditions and high fire danger in areas throughout Gulf Islands National Seashore. No burn bans have been initiated at this time, but visitors should use extreme caution when using fire rings, picnic area charcoal grills, and camp stoves. Park staff and regional wildland fire managers are closely watching conditions. All campfires, charcoal grills, or camp stoves should only be used
in designated areas that are free from combustible materials such as dry grass, leaf litter, and pine needles. Fires should be attended at all times and completely extinguished prior to leaving the site. Visitors should only smoke in areas that are free from combustible fuels, and ensure that the cigarette is completely extinguished and disposed of properly. Fireworks are always strictly prohibited in all areas of the national seashore. If dry weather continues, the park may implement restrictions
on all open fires including campfires, charcoal grills, and camp stoves. Any restrictions will be posted on the park’s website and social media accounts. To report a wildfire in the national seashore, please call 911. Recent efforts by the national seashore to reduce the risk of wildland fire through prescribed burns in the Naval Live Oaks Area help curtail the risk to life, property, and resources in the event of a wildfire, but cannot prevent them entirely.

CHALLENGE TO CLEMENCY SYSTEM COULD BE MOOT
dara kam News Service of Florida
TALLAHASSEE – Legal battles are intensifying over a state law carrying out a constitutional amendment that restored felons’ voting rights, but the new process appears to be ending an older lawsuit that challenged what one federal judge branded Florida’s “fatally flawed” clemency system. The November passage of the constitutional amendment has rendered moot a federal lawsuit filed in 2017 on behalf of a number of Florida felons, attorneys for the state and the plaintiffs wrote in briefs filed Friday with the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The court this month asked the two sides to submit briefs after the approval of Amendment 4, which grants voting rights to felons who have completed their sentences, and a law passed during the spring legislative session. That law (SB 7066) carries out the amendment and requires Floridians convicted of felonies to pay fees, fines and restitution related to their crimes to be eligible for voting-rights restitution. Voting-rights advocates and
elections-rights groups have challenged the law in court, arguing it imposes restrictions not envisioned in the constitutional amendment. The case pending at the federal appellate court was filed long before passage of Amendment 4 and challenged a lengthy and cumbersome voting-rights restoration process that has required action from the governor and Cabinet acting as the state’s Board of Executive Clemency. Siding with plaintiffs last year, Chief U.S. District Judge Mark Walker found the state’s voting-restoration process violated First Amendment rights and 14th Amendment equal-protection rights of felons. Walker ordered Florida officials to revamp the system. But siding with the state clemency board, the Atlantabased federal appeals court blocked Walker’s order from going into effect while the case remained pending. In the court filings Friday, lawyers for the plaintiffs wrote that the felons “are now eligible to vote under Florida state law, so this appeal is moot.” “Every plaintiff has paid off their legal financial obligations, including all restitution, fines, costs and fees in
full,” Fair Elections Center senior counsel Jon Sherman wrote in the plaintiffs’ filing. The outcome of the legal battles over the new state law won’t have an effect on the plaintiffs, “because all plaintiffs are eligible to vote now,” Sherman argued. “Respectfully, to the extent this court believes that there are any unresolved factual questions or unresolved questions as to the meaning of new state laws and believes that these questions are relevant to its determination of mootness, these questions may not be decided by this court; those are questions for the district court and Florida’s state courts, respectively,” he wrote. Lawyers representing Gov. Ron DeSantis and the state also argued that the case, known as Hand v. Scott, should be dismissed. “Because it now appears that all plaintiffs have satisfied any outstanding legal financial obligations, they have regained their right to vote, and their challenge to the executive clemency procedure is now moot,” the state’s lawyers argued. The restoration of felons’ rights has long been a controversial legal and political issue in Florida, with critics of
the state’s process comparing it to post-Civil War Jim Crow policies designed to keep blacks from casting ballots. Florida, with about 1.6 million felons, has been considered an outlier in a nation where more than three dozen other states automatically restore the right to vote for most felons who have completed their sentences. The move to dismiss the case at the federal appeals court comes as Florida Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried – the Cabinet’s lone Democrat – is pushing DeSantis and her Cabinet colleagues to overhaul the clemency process, which is used to restore voting rights and other civil rights such as the ability to serve on juries, possess guns and receive state occupational licenses. “There are more than 10,000 disenfranchised Floridians with open, pending applications for full restoration of civil rights,” Fried wrote Friday in a letter to DeSantis and his fellow Republicans on the clemency board, Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis and Attorney General Ashley Moody, urging them to take up the matter following an Oct. 8 Cabinet meeting. Fried said a backlog of
cases could be remedied by amending clemency rules, which have changed over the years under different state leaders. Under the current system, the state has required felons to wait five or seven years to apply for rights restoration – and years after that to complete the process. Former Gov. Rick Scott and former Attorney General Pam Bondi pushed through the process shortly after taking office in 2011. In the eight years after the process went into effect, the clemency board restored rights to about 3,000 of the 30,000 felons who’ve applied, compared to more than 155,000 whose rights were restored under former Gov. Charlie Crist and about 70,000 who regained their voting rights under Crist’s predecessor, Jeb Bush. According to the Florida Commission on Offender Review, which handles applications for clemency, the agency currently has a backlog of more than 10,600 cases. The drawn-out clemency process was the primary reason behind the push for the constitutional amendment, which received support from more than 64 percent of Florida voters last fall.
REPORT CALLS FOR CHANGES IN DISABILITIES PROGRAM christine sexton News Service of Florida
TALLAHASSEE – Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration on Monday recommended the state keep intact a Medicaid “waiver” program for people with developmental and intellectual disabilities but called for a redesign of how the so-called iBudget program works, including capping amounts people could spend annually on services designed to keep them at home. The DeSantis administration turned over to legislative leaders a required report that contains 11 recommendations for lawmakers to consider when they begin the 2020 session in January. The report does not recommend that the state scrap the existing program and enroll people in managedcare plans, a fear of many advocates for people with disabilities. “It is certainly much better than what we anticipated,” Florida Developmental Disabilities Council Executive Director Valerie Breen said. With the report compiled by the Agency for Persons with Disabilities and the Agency for Health Care Administration, the top recommendation is for state economists to begin analyzing spending and enrollment trends as they do for other Medicaid programs. While the recommendation may sound like inside baseball, it would
go far in helping plan financially for the program, said Jim DeBeaugrine, a former director of the Agency for Persons with Disabilities. “It will give them (lawmakers) a clear idea of what actual expense demands are going to be regarding their planning and budgeting,” said DeBeaugrine, who prior to becoming the agency’s director was a budget analyst for the Legislature and reviewed Medicaid estimates. “They will at least be fully informed that way.” Without a review of costs by economists who serve on the state Social Services Estimating Conference, the Legislature annually appropriates money to the iBudget program. If the funding falls short, it is considered a “deficit.” In the last two years, the Agency for Persons with Disabilities has come under fire for spending more than what was appropriated. The agency, with a $1.4 billion annual budget, is one of the smaller state health- and social-services agencies. But it has garnered a lot of attention because of recurring deficits. Administered through the state’s Medicaid home – and communitybased waiver program, the iBudget was implemented in 2014. It serves people who have been diagnosed with intellectual disabilities or other disorders, such as severe forms of autism, spina bifida,
cerebral palsy or Down syndrome. As of January, the program provided services to more than 34,500 Floridians. Another 21,900 people are on a waiting list. The Legislature this year directed the Agency for Persons with Disabilities and the Agency for Health Care Administration, which oversees much of the Medicaid system, to develop an alternative delivery model. The agencies were ordered to identify services that are essential for client health and safety and to recommend elimination of other services that are too expensive. In the iBudget program, participants have individual budgets to spend on the services they require. Budgets are determined using a complex algorithm. While the report didn’t recommend eliminating services, it included imposing limitations on “life services” such as companion services, employment services and adult day training services. The state would save upward of $2.6 million annually if it limited those services to 48 weeks a year and no more than 30 hours a week. According to the report, about 1,557 people would be affected by the change. Another recommendation calls for placing a $205,000 individual cap on services in the ibudget program. People who spend more than that would either need to reduce their waiver ex-
penditures to come within the cap or seek institutional care. “If the costs of an individual’s waiver services exceeds this amount, then the community may not be the most appropriate setting for them to receive their services,” the report reads. According to 2017-2018 data, 85 people would be affected by the change. If they all withdrew from the iBudget program, it would reduce costs by nearly $20 million, though it would increase costs for the Agency for Health Care Administration. If the 85 people stayed in the community and limited services to the $205,000 cap, it would save $2.4 million annually. Barbara Palmer, director of the Agency for Persons with Disabilities, has invited a small group of people, including service providers and advocates for people with disabilities, to her Tallahassee office on Tuesday to discuss the proposed recommendations included in the report. AHCA Secretary Mary Mayhew also was invited to the meeting. The report additionally calls for the Legislature to “appropriate funding sufficient to provide medically necessary services in the most appropriate setting for all enrolled waiver clients.” But the agencies did not indicate what that would cost. “That’s going to be the question that everybody asks,” Breen said.
BILL WOULD REQUIRE DRIVERS TO PUT DOWN PHONES From News Service of Florida staff An author of a new law that toughened the state’s texting-while-driving ban wants to require motorists to go fully “hands-free” if they are using wireless phones. Rep. Emily Slosberg, D-Boca Raton, filed a bill Monday for the 2020 legislative session that would make it illegal for people to operate vehicles while “manually holding or otherwise touching a wireless communications device.” The proposal (HB 249) was filed a day before a change takes effect that prohibits motorists from using hand-held wireless devices in designated school crossings, school zones and work zones. That change was part of a broader law that Slosberg
helped pass during the 2019 session to strengthen the state’s ban on texting while driving. Part of the law went into effect on July 1 and made texting while driving a “primary” offense, which means police can pull over motorists for texting behind the wheel. In the past, it was considered a “secondary” offense, which means motorists could only be cited for texting while driving if they were pulled over for other reasons. Since July 1, the Florida Highway Patrol has issued 463 warnings for texting and driving, while law enforcement statewide has issued 605 tickets. The hands-free portion of the law starts Tuesday, with officers directed to provide verbal or written warnings until the end of the year to motorists who don’t put down cell phones in school and work zones. Tickets will start
to be issued Jan. 1, punishable as a moving violation with three points assessed against the driver’s license. In a news release Monday, the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles noted an effort is underway among state agencies, the Florida Sheriffs Association, the Florida Police Chiefs Association and AAA to ensure motorists are aware of the change. Slosberg, whose twin sister died in a car accident, co-sponsored the texting-while-driving legislation during the 2019 session with Rep. Jackie Toledo, R-Tampa. The final version was deemed a compromise to win House support, as Sen. Wilton Simpson, a Trilby Republican who spearheaded the issue in the Senate, had proposed a hands-free requirement statewide. The 2020 legislative session will start Jan. 14.

‘LONG-TERM’ RECOVERY CONTINUES AS MICHAEL ANNIVERSARY NEARS
jim turner News Service of Florida MEXICO BEACH – With the one-year anniversary of Hurricane Michael approaching, local first responders received a $1.1 million grant from the state Thursday, the first distribution from a $25 million fund approved this spring by lawmakers as part
of hurricane relief. Gov. Ron DeSantis called the money a “lifeline” to cover salaries and other costs for the fire and police departments in Mexico Beach, the coastal community with a $3.5 million annual budget that was ground zero for landfall of the Category 5 Michael. “We just realize that this is a long-term deal,” DeSan-
tis said during a news conference outside the Mexico Beach City Hall. “We live in such a fast-paced society, there is something new every day it seems like people get all up in arms about, but this is something that is going to require a sustained effort.” The $25 million grant program was part of $220.9 million that legislators approved in response to Michael, which devastated parts of the Panhandle on Oct. 10. Looking ahead to the 2020 legislative session, Rep. Jay Trumbull, R-Panama City, and Sen. George Gainer, RPanama City, have started gathering information from cities and counties about continued needs and what they have received from the federal government. “Our biggest issue has been what are the feds going
to support and where those funding shortfalls are going to be, so the state can engage in the limited capacity we have,” Trumbull said. DeSantis, who traveled with First Lady Casey DeSantis to Mexico Beach hours after his inauguration in January, said the first couple will return to mark the one-year anniversary with additional announcements. He maintained that the region, much of which is made up of small communities, won’t be forgotten. “Progress is slow, but I do see progress,” DeSantis said. Mexico Beach Mayor Al Cathey said DeSantis has been fulfilling commitments to the community made during the inauguration. “He told me that day Mexico Beach would not be forgotten. I took him at his word,” Cathey said.
The state, anticipating federal reimbursements, spent more than $1.6 billion responding to the storm, mostly in debris collection, which swamped many of the small communities. About $200 million more has been distributed through the state Division of Emergency Management to local communities. Jared Moskowitz, director of the Division of Emergency Management, called Michael a “historic event, and it would take, obviously, historic levels of support” to recover. He pointed, in part, to massive clean-up efforts in Mexico Beach and Bay County. “I don’t know (of) a city of Mexico Beach’s size, with a $3.5 million budget, having to take on a task of this nature,” Moskowitz said.
AHCA CHIEF LOOKS TO BOLSTER HEALTH INFORMATION christine sexton News Service of Florida
TALLAHASSEE – Saying the state needs to be able to help consumers and providers in the same fashion as ride-sharing service Uber, a top health official said Thursday that Florida needs to overhaul the way it collects health-care data. Former Gov. Rick Scott pushed to force health maintenance organizations and insurers to turn over claims data. But Agency for Health Care Administration Secretary Mary Mayhew told members of a state advisory council Thursday she wants their insight on ways the state can move ahead with getting real-time information to everyone involved in using or paying for health care. “What is the future? What do the next 12 months look like? What do
the next three years look like?” Mayhew said. Mayhew, who was appointed secretary in January by Gov. Ron DeSantis, told members of the State Consumer Health Information and Policy Advisory Council that she wants “ to support rapid-cycle improvement” so that data can be turned over to health care providers and insurance companies in a way that is “actionable” and is as easy to use as an Uber app. “That streamline approach that is easy to navigate and understand,” she said, referring to the ride service. “I know when the car is supposed to be here. And so, how do we create a similar bar for ourselves?” Florida does not have a robust statewide health-information exchange, despite efforts initially made 15 years ago by former Gov. Jeb Bush. The Florida Health Informa-
tion Exchange offers a subscription service that provides participating managed-care plans with notices when their patients have emergencyroom visits, hospital admissions and discharges. Health plans provide the information to primary-care providers and patient care teams of their members. While Mayhew said the notification system has offered incredible value, she said it is “not a comprehensive approach.” Scott, who is now a U.S. senator, did not make the real-time exchange of health information a priority during his eight-year tenure. After a bruising battle with Florida hospitals in 2015 over a proposal to expand Medicaid eligibility, Scott turned his focus to amounts charged by hospitals. He created the “Commission on Healthcare and Hospital
Funding” in 2015 and successfully lobbied the Legislature the following year to pass a bill that authorized the creation of an all-claims payer database. But the facility-specific claims reimbursement information that Scott promised still isn’t available. Mayhew, however, told The News Service of Florida, that all Florida insurance companies have submitted the claims data and the website, with facilityspecific information, will be “live by the end of October.” Mayhew conceded that the data hasn’t helped lower health-care costs. “That doesn’t suggest in any way that we should detract from our efforts to promote transparency and the availability of great information,” she said. “But what is it that people expect today in the palm of their hand?”
DESANTIS ALLY TAPPED TO LEAD ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGES dara kam News Service of Florida
TALLAHASSEE - In one of his earliest – and most far-reaching – actions as the state’s chief executive, Gov. Ron DeSantis reshaped the Florida Supreme Court, with the appointment of three justices who have cemented a decidedly conservative majority. And now, with the help of two fellow Republicans who serve on the Florida Cabinet, DeSantis has delivered the same brand of conservative jurisprudence to an administrative court system that has been a go-to place for citizens and businesses to redress grievances against state agencies. DeSantis, Attorney General Ashley Moody and state Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis this week named John MacIver, a Tallahassee lawyer who’s the head of the local Federalist Society, to take over as chief judge of the state Division of Administrative Hearings. Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried, a Democrat, was the lone holdout on the appointment, which requires confirmation by the Republican-controlled Florida Senate. The Division of Administrative Hearings, located just a mile from the state Capitol, handles cases ranging from big-money fights involving gambling operators and medical-marijuana companies to a dispute about bakers who refused to make a pastry with an anti-gay slogan. Decisions issued by administrative law judges, known as ALJs, are often the first step in lengthy court battles challenging agencies’ rules or actions. In his new role, MacIver will have the ability to hire and fire administrative law judges and assign cases. MacIver, who openly spoke during Tuesday’s Cabinet meeting about a rocky start to his adult life that involved being thrown out of the Navy, worked for former Gov. Rick Scott’s administration as a lawyer at the Department of Business and Professional Regulation before joining Scott’s legal team. DeSantis kept MacIver on as deputy general counsel after the governor was elected in November. MacIver told DeSantis and the Cabinet his goal will be to hire “the correct ALJs who have the
correct judicial philosophy,” one that he called “apolitical.” The Federalist Society in Florida and nationally is perhaps the most-prominent conservative legal organization. “The Legislature should be able to look to both the courts and the administrative courts and say I can write a law … and there aren’t going to be creative ways to try to redraft that,” MacIver said. MacIver, who’s been a member of the Florida Bar for seven years, replaces Robert Cohen, who had been the chief judge since 2003 and resigned in March. Fried, a lawyer, said she opposed MacIver and the only other applicant for the position – Kristin Bigham, an assistant deputy general counsel at the Department of Environmental Protection – because of their lack of experience. The Division of Administrative Hearings can “be a check on an overreaching executive branch – and checks and balances matter,” Fried said, pointing out that Cohen had practiced law for two decades before he was appointed as chief judge. But for litigants who’ve relied on administrative law judges to rein in agency actions, or to nix rules that do not properly carry out state laws, MacIver’s critique of the Division of Administrative Hearings signals a sea change that some critics privately said could result in giving state agencies unfettered power. “The best place where improvement can be made is in the culture of judicial philosophy at DOAH,” MacIver told the Cabinet Tuesday, responding to a question posed by Moody. MacIver pointed out that, since DeSantis, a Harvard Law School graduate, has taken office, the governor has appointed judges who “respect the separation of powers, respect the rule of law, follow the text of the law based on its common understanding.” Florida businesses, citizens and legislators, who craft laws, need to have “some predictability in the law” and shouldn’t be “subject to the whim” of judges who have their own policy preferences, MacIver said. The chief judge’s “greatest impact is on her or his selection of new judges,” Seann Frazier, a Tal-
lahassee lawyer who frequently represents clients at the Division of Administrative Hearings, told The News Service of Florida. “There will be several upcoming vacancies as sitting judges approach retirement. DOAH has a long history of hiring highly qualified, independent administrative law judges. I hope that trend continues,” Frazier said. The change in leadership comes following several high-profile decisions that particularly irked Republican lawmakers and Scott’s administration. For example, Administrative Law Judge John Van Laningham has been involved in a protracted tug-of-war with state health officials over their handling of medical-marijuana rules and license applications. Last year, Van Laningham accused Department of Health officials of a “colossal blunder” that created a “dumpster fire,” and recommended that the state grant a highly sought-after medical marijuana license to a South Florida nursery. Van Laningham excoriated the Office of Medical Marijuana Use for using a flawed system to decide which applicants should receive the coveted licenses. His July 2018 recommended order in favor of Nature’s Way Nursery of Miami, Inc. accompanied a separate order in which Van Laningham scrapped an emergency rule crafted by health officials. That rule was written after passage of a 2017 law aimed at implementing a constitutional amendment that broadly legalized medical marijuana. In 2017, lawyers representing the health department made a rare – and futile – attempt at trying to get Van Laningham removed from a separate marijuana case, with one state health official saying in an affidavit that his department “cannot receive fair consideration of the issues and will not receive a fair final hearing in this matter if ALJ Van Laningham remains assigned as the administrative judge.” Van Laningham was not removed from the case, and he has continued to preside over other medical marijuana-related challenges. The Republican-dominated Legislature has in the past considered attempts to give the governor more power over the Division of Administrative Hearings. Those efforts failed to gain traction.
