Rick Scott announced that he is seeking to strengthen the measure of the State Board of Administration (SBA) that earlier this year passed a resolution to prohibit the state of Florida from any investment related to Nicolás Maduro's government.
Miami Florida. - Florida Gov. Rick Scott announced that he would promote a bill that would "strictly prohibit" the state and all its agencies from investing in any business that does business with the Nicolas Maduro government.
"Companies can either choose to support the Maduro regime or seek Florida state investments, not both," Scott said in a statement as he presided over the opening of the 2017 Latin American Summit in Miami.
Earlier this year, the State Board of Administration (SBA) unanimously approved a resolution proposed by Scott to ban the state of Florida from any investment related to the Nicolas Maduro government.
"This proposal is directed directly to the Maduro regime, not to the companies that provide much needed goods and services to the Venezuelan people," said Scott.
Details of this legislative proposal will be announced in the coming weeks, the governor's office said on this bill, which would be presented in the next legislative period, which starts in January 2018.
During the 2017 Latin American Summit, Scott also confirmed the aid that the state of Florida will provide to Puerto Rico after Hurman Irma.
