Florida's Culture Of Corruption "Hiding"

Governor Rick Scott’s administration allowed Duke Energy to continue collecting money from Florida’s consumers, despite the fact that the two power plants they are paying for won’t produce a single watt of electricity. While Duke charges Florida families $3.2 billion in higher electric rates, Gov. Scott made off with half a million dollars 
in campaign contributions.

Rubio and Ros-Lehtinen, China OK, Cuba No Way

Top aides to Sen. Marco Rubio and 
Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, two of the most vehement anti-Communist voices in Washington, took an all expenses paid trip to China this month courtesy of the Chinese government. here

They stayed at a luxury hotel and visited top tourist sites, including the Great Wall. The Rubio and Ros-Lehtinen connection stands out because of their strong anti-Communism views. Both Cuban-American lawmakers have condemned the human rights records of China and Cuba and have opposed efforts to lift the U.S. embargo on Cuba. They also regularly criticize people 
who have gone to Cuba.

Florida GOP Steve Southerland Lies

Claims to be an advocate for women and says that he voted for the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act, which is not true. Southerland voted for the partisan Republican version which didn’t extend protection to Native American, LGBT, or undocumented immigrant women. He was one of the 138 House Republicans who voted against the bipartisan Senate bill that eventually became law. here

Bob Graham, you now have a chance to elect one of his kids.

Florida's Culture Of Corruption: Debbie Wasserman Schultz
