Florida lawmakers are not in session now so they are doing precious little of anything.

If it is indeed a fact then please provide a link or two to support your assertion.

A story from 2021 about a bill that had the regulatory sections removed? That is hardly "already in the process of stopping AIRbnbs" and *that* is truly a fact.

I wonder if that wasn't passed as the current statute that actually *prohibits* regulating rentals. (EDIT: No, it is not. The "no local regulation" statute appears to be a 2011 addition)

Confirmation bias is real; I can find any number of articles that say so.
