佛罗里达州立法者批准更严厉的公民投票倡议规则, Florida lawmakers approve tougher rules for citizen ballot initiatives, facing criticism for hindering direct democracy.

Florida立法者已经批准了更严格的公民倡议程序规则, 让基层竞选者更难且更昂贵地在选票上采取措施。 Florida lawmakers have approved stricter rules for the citizens' initiative process, making it harder and more expensive for grassroots campaigners to put measures on the ballot. 批评者认为,包括更严厉处罚收集请愿书者和新的登记要求在内的变革实际上阻止了公民直接参与政策变革。 Critics argue the changes, which include stricter penalties for petition gatherers and new registration requirements, effectively block direct citizen participation in policy changes. 该法案正在等待州长罗恩·德桑提斯的签名。 The bill now awaits Governor Ron DeSantis' signature.
