First responders in Sanibel getting bonus checks from Governor Ron DeSantis.
The checks, part of the state budget, were sent out before Hurricane Ian but the Governor says many didn't make it to the intended recipients.
DeSantis applauding the efforts and sacrifice of first responders who helped others devastated by the storm while putting their own lives back together.
The checks are for more than $13-hundred because DeSantis says he wants to make sure the bonuses are $1-thousand each after taxes.
