Florida DINO Gwen Graham Gets An Earful

At a gathering of Democrats in Jackson County
Ray Bellamy, an orthopedic surgeon who volunteered on Graham's campaign last year and donated $4,800. "We're worried." Bellamy and his liberal allies sense that Graham isn't the lawmaker they thought they were getting when they knocked on doors, put up yard signs and wrote checks to help her win. They believe that Graham, one of the most vulnerable House Democrats in the nation, is pandering to the right to protect her job. here

 "A number of people are very disappointed and probably won't hang in there and support her to anything like that degree the next time."
I know we won't!

The Juvenile Direct File Statute In Riverview

Florida sends more children to adult court than any other state thanks to a state “direct file” statute that gives prosecutors sole discretion on which children go to adult court. 98% of the more than 10,000 children tried in Florida’s adult courts in the last 5 years were transferred there without the benefit of a hearing before a judge. Is this trend of over-incarceration truly making our communities safer 
and rehabilitating youth?

Florida bears: We wont back down

Call on Gov. Scott to take action to protect the bears. Instead of opening a hunting season, Florida should focus on reducing urban sprawl and common-sense mitigation like better trash cans. I urge you not to allow Florida's amazing black bears to be hunted and killed. here
