Fellow Floridians
I am sending you this message in the hope that you will help prevent the repeal of the current mold licensing law by sending a personal request to NOT repeal the current mold licensing law to both your District Representatives and Senators.
It is very important for everyone you know to do the same. Please share the need to send emails and make calls to everyone you know that would be impacted by the repeal of this law. Send to the media, news papers, radio and TV stations, mold assessors, mold remediators, adjustors, family and friends that will benefit from a licensed mold professional.
With all that was done to create the current legislation and set a mold industry standard for our state it would be a shame and a devastating blow to our industry to see the law repealed.Please include your current license number and a personal request to NOT repeal the current mold licensing law.
