The state has been rocked by political controversies, bitter debates and fatal shootings at odds with its previously laid back holiday destination image.

Key Points: 
  • The state has been rocked by political controversies, bitter debates and fatal shootings at odds with its previously laid back holiday destination image.
  • In his 1947 book, Inside USA, writer John Gunther described Florida’s “freakishness in everything from architecture to social behaviour unmatched in any American state”.
  • The state has witnessed heated debates and legislative battles on issues including abortion, gun control, education, LGBTQ+ rights and voting rights.

Importance of international image

    • In 2022, more than 1.1 million people visited Florida from the UK, the second largest group of international visitors on an annual basis.
    • The UK is also Florida’s eighth largest trade partner with bilateral trade reaching $5.8 billion (£4.6 billion) in 2022.
    • So state leaders might worry about tarnishing its image abroad.
    • Business leaders are already fretting about a fall in international visitor numbers linked to COVID and negative media coverage of the state.

School shootings and gun laws

    • It was controversial because it did not place restrictions on gun ownership or introduce background checks before gun purchases, but allowed schools to employ armed “guardians”.
    • Critics argued that it fell short of addressing the root causes of gun violence in Florida.
    • Florida’s partisan divide has been exacerbated by the introduction and passage of several laws that discriminate against the LGBTQ+ community.
    • Its deeply partisan divide, controversial policies and gun laws have created a toxic political climate, which has the ability to significantly damage the sunshine state’s appeal.
