Fried Fired Up Over DeSantis' DEP Move

JUICE—Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried has sent a letter to Gov. Ron DeSantis telling him that he lacks the “legal authority to unilaterally” appoint the Secretary of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, per state statute.

Commissioner Fried stated that she has spoken to Interim Secretary Shawn Hamilton—who DeSantis has apparently announced he would appoint to the post—and found him to be a “good man and private servant.”

Fried said that her “quarrel” was not with Hamilton, rather with the governor overstepping his authority.

Fried wants the governor to convene the Cabinet for a vote on Hamilton, an event that would surely become a political spectacle considering how she has been dealing with every single issue.

There hasn’t been new out of the DeSantis’office after Hamilton’s official appointment, but several months back, DeSantis addressed Fried’s gripe.

“That’s our prerogative, and we’ll do it when we want to, and we’ll let folks know about it,” said DeSantis.
