Is so excited about Daniel Webster becoming Speaker of the House that she called the staff of FloridaPolitics.com asking for guidance on how she might vote for for him.

Alan Grayson: Raise The Minimum Wage
Last week, I met
with workers in Tampa making the minimum wage. Fast food workers, home
healthcare workers – and a college professor! They told me how hard it is to
scrape by, in a minimum-wage job in today’s America. In an economy that is
rigged for the uber-wealthy, and against the middle class.

Florida Wants To Ban Fracking Bans
Big Oil is at it again. Their allies in the legislature are trying to ban cities and counties from either regulating or banning fracking.
HB 191 and SB 318

Take action by signing the petition and tell the Florida Legislature to reject HB 191 and SB 318. Communities should be able to protect their land and water from fracking.
