Business:Management
Join us for the second episode with guest Michelle Rehwinkel Vasilinda. Michelle is a former member of the Florida House of Representatives, representing the 9th District, which includes most of Leon County, from 2008 to 2016. Her insight into State politics, current bills, and how all of this impacts citizens, employees and businesses is unique and interesting. Michelle's perspective on the current legislative session with the backdrop of the Coronavirus are the ingredients of an awesome episode of Business Matters.
At the recording of the show, we are dealing with the fall out from the Coronavirus and the energy war between Russia and OPEC. The price of oil has plummeted and the stock market is now officially in a bear market. Major events are being canceled as schools and businesses evaluate how to change their delivery of products and services. Resiliency and Adaptation is a hallmark of America and is the American Way. Difficult times force people to think outside the box, to adapt to the challenges and create new solutions and a 'better way'.
We discuss a wide range of hot topics that are relevant today, including how schools will function if they don't have classes in the school, how business will operate and survive and in fact create new and better solutions. How will the OPEC/Russia conflict over oil impact the energy industry? We have had conflicts over energy and the price of oil before and it forced us to become energy independent by using our own oil reserves, fracking and natural gas. What is the next energy frontier? America is strong and will overcome the turbulence.
The Florida Legislature is in the final scheduled week, but will it end on time? E-Verify and other bills may cause session to be extended. Of course we talk about the Coronavirus, and the impact in Florida on businesses and the education system. Governor DeSantis signed Executive Order Number 20-52, COVID-19 Public Health Emergency to assist the State of Florida efficiently respond to the challenges presented by the virus.
We also discuss the relationship of E-Verify, Coronavirus and the $15/hour minimum wage. Will E-Verify level the playing field? Should Florida wait to implement E-Verify requirement until after the Coronavirus impact is over? How does the $15/hour help or harm the economy in Florida. Check out this episode for a lively, informative and entertaining discussion.
