TOOL: I Am GOP Ritch Workman Of Melbourne

Florida Senate committee on Tuesday approved a constitutional amendment for the November ballot that would give tax breaks to businesses that install

Solar panels,

but it is unlikely to come before voters:

The chairman of a powerful House committee believes

the solar industry isn't ready for it.

 Mr. Workman's attitude is more proof of the clout of Florida's electric utilities, which view rooftop solar as the beginning of the end of their

monopoly control over Florida's energy market.

Florida Wants To Hide Stand Your Ground Records From Media

Florida's Culture Of Corruption: Jimmy Patronis

 Rep. Jimmy Patronis GOP Panama City

 Every year during the legislative session in Tallahassee, he pushes a bill to destroy Florida's environmental regulations, 

Last Year
 Bill to block local governments from protecting thousands of acres of wetlands. Which passed
This Year

 He has  introduced a destructive bill that will prevent local governments from being able to protect their own water supply. 

HB 703 not only prohibits local governments from enforcing wetlands, springs or storm water protections – it takes the decision-making powers out of their hands and gives it to Tallahassee politicians.
 

Frank Matthews, who lobbies on behalf of developers, phosphate miners, boat manufacturers, sugar growers, power companies and a garbage company said 

"I can't say enough good things about him He couldn't be more accommodating. That's the appealing thing to me."

GOP LITE: Bob Buckhorn

Is not happy with the prospect of Florida Democrats

nominating Charlie Crist for governor.

On Bay News 9, Buckhorn made it clear that he's
keeping his distance from Crist.

Will he ultimately endorse the Democratic nominee?
"I don't know," he said.

Keep in mind that Buckhorn could be a Democratic contender for governor in 2018. He would have a window if Scott wins a second term, but probably not if Democratic Gov. Crist
were running for re-election.......more>
Is he cheering for the other side for his own personal interests?
