John Morgan: Their amazing hypocrisy
They're claiming that the list of diseases and conditions is too open-ended, yet they know that the only ones truly qualified to determine what is debilitating are medical doctors. They'll trust a doctor enough to put one on TV - but not to do their job? Hypocrisy.
They claim we should let legislature do its job, pointing out so-called "loopholes" that they know aren't loopholes at all - while they know that the Amendment tasks the legislature and the Department of Health to sort out these details and regulations after passage.
I'm putting even more money up to fight this hypocrisy, but it's not enough. We need you with us. This race is ours to win. We WILL win it, because we are doing it for our families and friends and perhaps someday, ourselves.
We won't let the lies sit unanswered. We are going up on TV, on radio, and online in a big way. We are punching back with the truth and we are going to win this thing. Contribute here now.
For the people,
John Morgan

With a net worth of $37 billion, casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, has donated another $1.5 million to the No On 2 campaign (or, Drug Free Florida) -- the biggest medical marijuana opposition in the state of Florida. He had helped kick off the campaign when he donated $2.5 million to get things started back in June. here

#StopScott
In the last four years, Rick
Scott has waged an assault on the rights of Florida women, even throwing a party
at the Governor’s mansion as he signed laws rolling back the clock on women’s
health. Whether it’s interfering at the doctor’s office or restricting access
to birth control, we do not need politicians like Rick Scott inserting himself
into our personal decisions.
Visit our new #StopScott website and show your
family and friends what it will look like if Rick Scott is allowed to keep
interfering in our personal lives.
Rick Scott worst enemy of Black Floridians in the last 20 years
Anything she wanted to do, he killed. He cut off the Office of Supplier Diversity, which tries to help Black business do business with the state. He cut funding for the Black Business Investment Corporation, which helped fund Black businesses. It was terrible. He’s the worst enemy of Black Floridians
in the last 20 years.” here

27 days to victory for medical marijuana ... Are you with us?
We have 27 days to go
I joined up as chair of this campaign over a year
and a half ago - when a lot of people felt winning would be impossible. Now we
are on the cusp of delivering compassionate care to thousands of Floridians,
some in severe pain or having trouble eating
or controlling their seizures.
We're asking every potential donor - large and small - to join us (or
join us again). Ben tells me that we need another $35,241 raised online in the
next 9 days.
4 weeks is an eternity in politics, but very little
time when it comes to fundraising. A lot can happen and we need to be writing
checks to advertising outlets now. We can't let the No on 2 campaign's lies go
unanswered.
Thank you, John Morgan

John Schilling: I blew the whistle on Rick Scott's fraud
I was an accountant at Columbia/HCA when Rick Scott was CEO. I uncovered
two sets of books: one that showed the company ripping off taxpayers, and one
that didn't. And I watched as the company that Rick Scott led turned in
fraudulent books to the federal government. He hurt seniors, taxpayers --
everyone.
Fraud is in his DNA. And now, as our governor, he's been defrauding Floridians. It made me sick to see Scott regularly put profits over patients and prioritize the bottom line over the care of folks who needed help the most. He says he wasn't aware of it -- but that's just not true. He knew. He had to know.
That's why I worked with the FBI to help get Scott out of the health care business. But today, he's at it again -- this time, from Tallahassee. He used the money he made from ripping off seniors to promote himself -- and, arguably, to buy the governor's mansion.
And if we don't stop him now, Scott will stay in there.
Let's get him out. Donate to Charlie Crist today:
Thank you, John Schilling
