Welcome To Tampa Syrian Refugees
A week ago, our hearts were broken by the photo of a
little boy, drowned, lying alone in the sand.But new images of people with open
arms welcoming exhausted Syrian refugees the world over have begun to put our
hearts back together. The profound decency of ordinary folks is
driving governments to respond to this crisis.
----------
Now it's America's turn to act.
That's why MoveOn members and our friends are
launching AmericaWelcomes, an urgent national campaign to raise the number
of Syrian refugees admitted into the U.S. to at least 100,000 and to encourage
people in local communities across the country to open their hearts and extend a
welcome.

special-interest Big Money lies out of the 2016 Florida Senate race.

FWC Commissioner Liesa Priddy and other business landowners are asking for what’s called an “incidental take permit.” The permit would protect them from civil or criminal penalties under the Endangered Species Act. That involves killing, hunting, shooting or trapping any threatened or endangered species. It also accounts for altering an animal’s natural habitat to the point it would not be able to reproduce or nest there. here

Patrick Murphy Throws Hillary To The Wolves
On May 8, 2014, the Republicans
rammed through a resolution to establish the Select Committee on the Events
Surrounding the 2012 Terrorist Attack in Benghazi, a committee specifically
designed as a witch hunt to drag Hillary Clinton through the mud and sully her
name before the 2016 presidential election. Every single Republican voted
YES (225 of them) and 186 Democrats voted NO. Seven of the worst Democrats
in the House-- the ones who consistently vote for Boehner's agenda day in and
day out-- crossed the aisle and voted with the Republicans. Patrick Murphy was one of them. here
