Quoting from another posting in a different forum that explains the reasoning behind Senate Bill 90 and House Bill 1....
SB90 will prohibit the use of drop boxes to return vote-by-mail ballots. The Bill also requires a voter identifier when requesting a vote-by-mail ballot. Those identifiers include the voter’s driver license number, ID card number or the last four digits of the voter’s social security number. Passing this bill in Florida will limit “vote harvesting” fraud that was found in the last general election. We need this bill passed to improve the reliability of Florida elections.
HB1 will create new crimes prohibiting a person from defacing, damaging, destroying or pulling down a monument or memorial. The bill also creates penalties for aggravated rioting and inciting a riot. The bill will require a person arrested for offenses relating to rioting, unlawful assembly or mob intimidation to be held in custody until he or she appears for a first appearance hearing and a court determines bond. This bill will act as a deterrent to the riots experienced in Portland, Seattle and other US cities over the past year.
