Jackie Toledo: I Am GOP

"The most deceptive candidate in Tampa political history."

"Another tasteless political ploy from Mrs. Toledo, this woman will say and do whatever she thinks is going to help her get elected."

"Wanna be"

Marching through St. Pete with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers

And the Young American Dreamers to celebrate their victories over a span of 20yrs fighting for Fair pay, farm worker rights, &... protection from exploitation! Now we just need Publix & Wendy's to get on board! here 

Florida GOP Ignoring Voter Intent

Both the Florida Senate and the House have released their draft budgets for Amendment 1 spending. Unfortunately, neither of them come close to what voters intended, which is renewed funding for the acquisition of parks and undisturbed natural areas. Instead, both proposed budgets provide millions to cover existing agency operating expenses and other spending that doesn't meet the intent of the voters. This is starting to feel like the Lottery Amendment all over again. here

Not feeling good about Tallahassee

I just got back home after spending the last two days in Tallahassee, lobbying for a medical marijuana bill that a huge majority of Floridians have been asking for.I got some news to share: it ain't looking good!
Despite the voices of 58% of Floridians and our efforts in the legislature, the third week of the session just ended without a hearing in either house.
We need to redouble our efforts to get back on the ballot in 2016

Florida GOP is subverting our will on Amendment 1

Funny thing about the “will of the people” in Florida. Even when expressed via an overwhelming majority “Yes” vote on a constitutional amendment, the Legislature can and does subvert it. here
