Even more good news!! The Senate Rules Committee just put Senator Hooper’s SB 538 - RBT legislation on the agenda for next Tuesday, March 1st. This is the final Senate Committee for the Senate bill. 

On Wednesday, Feb 23rd, Representative Plasencia passed the companion House bill, HB 255 out of its final House Committee and the bill is now scheduled to be taken up by the full House next Tuesday, March 1.

Thank you FABA members for your continuing advocacy on these two bills. With just two more weeks of Session there still is much work to be done to get this legislation to the Governor’s desk. Stay tuned for our next Call to Action.

We need  your help getting House Bill 255 on the calendar for Monday.   Please take a moment to email your congressman to let them know how important it is to clarify that BCBAs *and* RBTs should be allowed in Florida public schools.   Right now, the law only specifies that BCBA can enter public schools.  

Please take a moment to click the link below to send a letter to your congressman.

House Bill 255 would clarify state law to allow private RBTs, to work with clients in public schools
