Dear Friends of District 8,
This week, Team 8 joins our entire community in cheering on our beloved Miami Heat in the NBA finals!
I join fans across the county in expressing deep pride for our hardworking, dedicated team, not just for what they bring to the game but their passion and activism off the court. And I'm thinking back to February – feels like so long ago! – when I had the honor to present Dwyane Wade with a County proclamation in honor of the team retiring his jersey.
Also this week, Governor DeSantis announced new policies that preempt local control to hasten a full reopening in Florida – revoking the ability of local leaders to make decisions that are best for our own community.
The pandemic is very much still here and the fundamental facts have not changed. Please continue to wear masks, social distance wherever possible, and listen to public health guidance. It's key to making sure we keep moving forward and don't undo all the progress we have already made to control the spread of coronavirus.
Working together, we can protect Miami-Dade families so that we can continue to safely re-open.
Yours in community,
Daniella
