This piece, by investigative journalist Christopher Heath, ran in the Orlando media market, after we sent out our media advisory with the offer to connect reporters to storytellers in their area.

Opportunity For All Floridians sent this press release to news outlets in the Orlando area, after conducting a series of interviews with everyday Floridians who were struggling to make ends meet because they couldn’t get the state’s unemployment system to pay them the benefits they were owed. This press outreach resulted in several local news stories.

The legislative package included a proposal that would expand unemployment benefit eligibility to those not complying with a COVID-19 vaccine mandate. In response, unemployed Floridians who are still waiting for their own benefits spoke out about the current system. “The system is still broken,” several of them said. “What about us?”
