The 2024 Legislative Session has begun and is scheduled to run from January 9 to March 8, 2024. FRLA is committed to the continued advancement of Florida’s hospitality industry through our legislative advocacy at both the state and federal levels and will be working hard at the Capitol to accomplish our priorities and defend the industry. This Session, FRLA has been tenacious in its advocacy of our industry and our members during the session. We successfully advanced legislation that will set the standard for relationships between restaurants and food delivery platforms, and we made significant progress on Vacation Rental legislation, which we’ve been working on for over 10 years. We protected the Tourist Development Tax and reduced employment restrictions on 16- and 17-year-old workers while still prioritizing education and safety.
