My survey form, Rail is not even an option.
When i asked why, they told me to write it in on the back.
As you can see here Transit routes and bike lanes
are our top priority.
Yet according to this, it is not.
Thank you to this very nice gentleman
(Brian of Hillsborough County)
For helping me out.
Tea Partier Sharon Calvert and Florida GOP Victor Crist were there.
We say, NO RAIL?,
NO NEW TAXES!

Florida Medical Marijuana Campaign Effectively Relaunches Today
Medical marijuana will be on the ballot in 2016 and the voters will pass what the legislature failed to.
The legislative session ended today - and with it the hopes of short term relief
for thousands of sick and suffering patients throughout Florida. The House of
Representatives decided to simply quit work, three days before the end of
session, and with that, medical marijuana legislation is dead in
Tallahassee. The same people who stood up against Amendment 2 last year, many stating that
this was an issue better handled by legislature - simply turned their backs on
patients, and ignored the will of nearly 3.4 million voters. Despite
courageous leadership from Senators and Representatives in both houses and both
parties, Tallahassee has failed us again.
Clearly - the
only way this is going to get fixed is through a constitutional amendment and
our new petition. We have a donor - ready to match
your donation through
the end of May. here
"Today the Florida House of Representatives failed us, yet again. I never had much faith in Tallahassee to do the right thing. But I continue to have tremendous faith in the compassion of the people of Florida to do what the politicians refused to. Today marks the first day of the 2016 campaign for medical marijuana. We will put this issue back before the voters. We will win. Believe!" John Morgan

GO Hillsborough Meeting Today In Temple Terrace
One of our last chances
"Good luck with that," That’s what one Tribune columnist
said about Commissioner Hagan talking about a balanced transportation referendum
for more options.
It’s a dare. Some think we won’t stand up to make sure
we have options.
We need to make it loud an clear to every doubter,
naysayer, and tea party insider that it’s time to work together to create new
transportation options for everyone. This is one of our last chances to
be heard. Come out tonight for just 15 minutes:
Don't let these corporatist Republicans ruin our future.
If you Dems would of voted Pat Kemp would be in office and we would not be dealing with Higginbotham. No one even ran against Hagan.

Racist At The Econo Lodge in Live Oak, Florida
A group of Flint high school students were wrapping up a college tour in Florida, on their way back to Flint, their bus broke down. They ended up spending the night at the Econo Lodge in Live Oak,
Coordinator Blake Odum says right after dinner, is when the trip took a much different and disturbing tone."It was owned by white people. And they started taking pictures of all the kids as we were walking in and out of the hotel," said student Melissa Blacque. "They were calling us the N word. Odum says things felt so tense that to avoid any trouble, he tried to be proactive by calling police. When police arrived, they told the group to stay in their rooms for the night.
Odum says the officer left him with a chilling message.
"The officer pulled me to the side and said, 'You know, I just want to let you know this area right off the interstate, people aren't too accommodating to you all.' And he said,
'If you know what I mean.'
Dear Flint high school students, we are not all racist in Florida, here we have a saying, the further north you go the further south you are. We don't consider the panhandle part of Florida, it is more like south Georga. visit us in Tampa Bay, we have great schools, (University of Tampa, USF,
St Leo, Stetson University)
and we would never treat you that way.
Shifty Florida GOP Ken Hagan exploiting term limits loophole
Commissioner Ken Hagan, a Republican, said he hasn’t ruled out leaving his countywide District 5 seat midterm to run next year in his old north-county District 2. By switching back to his home-district seat, Hagan could avoid being forced out of office by term limits in 2018 and start a new clock — one that would allow him to stay on the commission
until as late as 2024. here
“I don’t think anybody ever thought about that when we wrote the law,” said former Commissioner Jan Platt,
