Is the state withholding Hope Florida records? That’s what top Republican says

Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration is refusing to turn over records relating to the Hope Florida charity to House lawmakers, according to the Republican investigating the organization.

Earlier this month, Rep. Alex Andrade requested bank records and other information from the state about the Hope Florida Foundation, the state-created charity meant to support the first lady’s initiative.

The charity has since turned over those records to DeSantis’ Department of Children and Families for release, Andrade said. But the department, which oversees the charity, is “now just sitting” on them, he told the Herald/Times on Wednesday. “They refuse to answer phone calls,” Andrade said of the department.

“They refuse to answer phone calls,” Andrade said of the department.

The Florida GOP has been an enabler of Desantis since day 1. They've passed bills to hide how he spends money and to help hide his travel. Newspapers have had to file lawsuits in order to get any information out of his office. This is nothing new and now all of a sudden you care?
