It’s been a busy and productive week at the 13th UK Trade Mission. This year marked our largest delegation yet and trade talks with more 400+ companies, the most ever. We strengthened economic ties and relationships that will create more jobs in Jacksonville and lead to more investment in our city.

Today I signed an executive order encouraging financial training for city board appointees and certification of financial submissions by agency CEOs. Working with the City Council, we’ll make these standards permanent through legislation. Read more here: www.jacksonville.gov/welcome/feat...

Great customer service means meeting people where they are, and for a lot of our residents, that's on their phone. The Jax Waste Wizard provides clear answers in seconds any time of day. When residents get it right the first time, we get fewer missed pickups, fewer callbacks and a cleaner city.

I’m deeply troubled by reports of this incident. Racism has no place in our school athletic events or anywhere in society. This matter is being investigated by both Duval and Nassau County Public Schools and we look forward to the findings.

Today is the day we promised to never forget. As we reflect on the fellow Americans who were lost and the courage of first responders who ran towards danger, let’s remember what came after: a country united, a legacy of service, and a commitment to each other.

On Labor Day, we take a moment to recognize the workers who make our city go. We also celebrate the unions that have built the middle class in this country. They have fought for safer workplaces, better wages, stronger benefits, and the basic dignity that every working person deserves.

This latest marker on the Jacksonville Civil Rights Trail is not here to celebrate the actions of that day, rather, it is here to commemorate the change Axe Handle Saturday brought about. It shows how one generation of young people challenged the status quo and helped create change. (2/3)

Decades ago, young people in Jacksonville refused to accept the status quo, because they believed things could be better. Their courage to act on this belief led to the events we remember as Axe Handle Saturday. (1/3)

Housing costs remain top of mind in Jacksonville. The solution is building more homes affordable for families with the greatest need. Parkwood Commons adds 108 homes to the more than 7,000 below market rate homes built or on the way since I took office. We’ll keep pushing for more.

It was a special moment honoring Hank Thomas for his life, legacy, and contributions to our city and nation. He was born in Jacksonville and was one of the 13 original Freedom Riders – brave Americans who traveled across the South in 1961 to advance freedom and fairness in interstate bus travel.
