Deborah Buckland, Ari Jolly, and G. Ray Driver were appointed to four-year terms in 2019. Their terms were set to expire in Sept. 2023.
Driver resigned in 2024 because of a car accident, but all three are currently listed on JTA’s website as board members.
Florida law says members remain on the board until a replacement is appointed.
DeSantis did not specify who the new appointments would be replacing.
The appointments are subject to Senate confirmation.
