Rick Scott threw a party and women weren’t invited

Three years ago today, Gov. Rick Scott actually threw a party at the Governor’s Mansion to celebrate his commitment to restricting your access to reproductive health care. Scott and his allies rejoiced over his signing four anti-women’s health bills into law, including a new law diverting license plate funds to anti-choice organizations and one requiring ultrasounds that had been vetoed the previous year by then-Gov.

How We Git-R-Done In Rick Scott's Florida

 A month after Gov. Rick Scott took a secret hunting trip to the King Ranch in Texas last year, he faced a big decision. A seat had come open on the board that oversees Florida's efforts on the multibillion-dollar project to repair damage to the Everglades caused by agriculture. To fill that position, Scott picked a corporate executive named 

Mitchel A. "Mitch" Hutchcraft.

 Hutchcraft's major qualification for a seat on the board of South Florida Water Management District: He is the vice president in charge of the King Ranch's Florida agricultural acreage. here
