Darryl Rouson of Tampa, voting for it.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>The three quashed bills would have imposed new rules for riding electric bicycles (SB 382), allowed high-school students to assist poll workers and get community-service credits for graduation (HB 461) and created an exemption to federal and state regulations on signs near interstate roads in Davie (HB 4075).<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>All three bills passed the Legislature unanimously.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>In his veto message on the electric-bicycle bill, DeSantis expressed concern about its provision banning riders from going more than 10 miles per hour within 50 feet of a pedestrian. A violation would be punished the same as a nonmoving violation of a vehicle, with fines of more than $100.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Also, such a violation \u201cwould inevitably be enforced with speed detection and surveillance devices,\u201d DeSantis\u2019 letter states.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/floridamovingchronicle.com\/?p=2364\">Want to help earthquake survivors in Venezuela?

Moreover, the bill creates a task force, yet substantive changes are also implemented prior to any task force recommendations,\u201d DeSantis wrote.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>For the bill to ensure high-school students can get credit for volunteering as assistant poll workers, DeSantis lauded the intention of the bill but suspected it could be used by liberal groups and he cited the Southern Poverty Law Center\u2019s backing of the measure.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile the House and Senate sponsors had a noble intent in filing the bill, the application of the bill may result in an avenue for polls to be staffed with volunteers that may not be subject to Florida\u2019s prohibition on single party registered poll workers for general elections,\u201d DeSantis wrote in his veto message. \u201cGiven the bill received support in committee by representatives of the Southern Poverty Law Center, this may indeed be the consequence of the legislation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier issued subpoenas to the SPLC in May, saying the group \u201cappears to be running a deceptive organization that pays informants to manufacture racism on its behalf.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>The third bill would\u2019ve allowed Davie, a town in Broward County, an exemption from state and federal advertising laws for lands near I-75 to put up a sign promoting the \u201cagricultural heritage\u201d of the area. DeSantis vetoed the bill because he was concerned it would lead to cuts in federal transportation funds issued to the state.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/floridamovingchronicle.com\/?p=2363\">There are about 6,000 underground gasoline leaks in Florida.
