FPL Customers About To Take It Deep
After losing a major battle in court last year, Florida Power & Light is now turning to the Florida Legislature to change the state law and give it the authority to charge customers, and profit off, speculative natural gas fracking.
-----
The bill, HB 1043 by Florida GOP Rep. Jason Brodeur, of Sanford, is titled
-----
"Prudent Utility Investments in Natural Gas Reserves,"
-----
and the Senate companion is SB 1248
by Florida GOP Sen. Aaron Bean of
Fernandina Beach.

A coalition of labor, environmental, LGBT-rights, and other left-leaning groups under the banner “Awake the State” organized more than a dozen rallies across Florida to coincide with the first day of the 2017 legislative session, including an event at the Capitol. Their message: Scott and Republican leaders are not fighting for us.

Marco Rubio Protest At Dale Mabry And Kennedy In Tampa
Marco Rubio Tuesdays in Tampa, Florida
Since he was kicked out of his office in Westshore
the folks have moved the weekly protest to the corner
of At Dale Mabry And Kennedy.
Statement from Ben Pollara, Executive Director of Florida for Care, on HB 1397
In addition to banning smokable and edible marijuana products, HB 1397 bans the vaporization of marijuana oils, except for terminal patients. That is a further restriction than what even the current law allows.
HB 1397 also offers only a modest expansion of the marketplace for medical marijuana treatment centers and again takes a step backwards in doing so. Forget about government not being in the business of picking winners and losers, HB 1397 literally picks losers in the issuance of the first tranche of new licenses proposed in the legislation. The bill calls for the first five licenses issued to be awarded to applicants who previously applied for, but failed to win, a license under the current law.
Today is the start of session and I hope this bill is the start of a meaningful debate in the House over the merits of this approach and that as the bill moves through the process, it applies more free market principals."

Heartless HART
Where are the HART folks in
the transit debate?
We understand they are probably doing the best they can with the money they get. But shouldn't they be trying to get more. Why the silence? Speak up, Buy more buses. Change the frequency from 20 minutes to 10. Upgrade the transfer centers. (The bathrooms at Marion transit center is a start.). Give your drivers some lessons in manners.
We graded some of them for attitude.
