Campus Safety Push: Gov. Ron DeSantis signed HB 757, expanding Florida’s “school guardian” program to public colleges and universities and adding new rules for threat-management teams, mental health training, and a tougher offense for firing a gun within 1,000 feet of a school. Redistricting in Court: A Tallahassee judge is weighing whether to pause Florida’s newly redrawn 2026 congressional map as lawyers argue it violates the Fair Districts Amendment; the case has a May 25 ballot-printing deadline. Public Safety Overhaul: Sen. Ashley Moody cleared the way for a sweeping package of six bills aimed at law enforcement support, including officer mental health. Aviation Funding: The FAA is set to spend $835M to replace aging control towers, including a new tower planned for Tamiami, Florida. Politics & Legal Notes: A Republican congressional bid launched in FL-11 by neurosurgeon/attorney Dr. Nizam Razack; meanwhile, Palm Beach County’s Michael A. Barnett was formally invested as a county court judge.
