Show Notes
Florida lawmakers propose expanding swim voucher program to children aged one to seven, aiming to reduce drowning incidents. The bill, if signed by the governor, will take effect in July 2026. Swim instructor Kari Bahour, who lost her son to a silent pool drowning, advocates for water safety lessons. The expansion is expected to benefit children with autism, who face higher drowning risks. With at least nineteen child drownings this year, the program aims to cut these numbers before they rise further.
