“public records” 

 making it harder for citizens and journalists

to get an idea of how Florida is conducting “the people’s business.”

Florida GOP Kelli Stargel

The Republican 
State senator from Lakeland's bill to restrict small craft beer brewers from selling directly to the public has made her a poster child for legislators appearing much
More concerned with protecting powerful special interests

Rick Scott: Cómo se dice "pander"?

Florida Hispanics Beware

Rick Scott campaigned in 2010 on his support for extreme Tea Party Arizona-style anti-immigrant legislation. He vetoed a bill to allow children of undocumented immigrants to get a temporary driver's license. So why is he now "considering" giving in-state tuition to these same young Floridians? Sounds like an awfully convenient election year change of heart as Scott looks to improve his dire standing among
Florida's Latino voters.
