Department Pauses Northern Turnpike Extension Project
WILDWOOD—After cryptic and conflicting news leaks over the last 24 hours, today the
Florida Department of Transportation announced a “pause” to the Northern Turnpike Extension
Project.

Happy Pride!
Happy Pride Month from all of us here at Progress Florida! As we close out this month of reflection, community events, and celebrating the great strides made for equality in our state and nation, we’re also confronted with the reality of continuing attacks on Florida’s LGBTQ community.

On Saturday, we March for Our Lives
We cannot look away. We cannot become numb. From Buffalo to Uvalde to Parkland to the Pulse Nightclub in Orlando and the hundreds of mass shootings across our state and nation every year, it’s clear that no person, parent, or child is safe from the gun violence epidemic.
