Florida GOP Keep Up Attack On Women
Rick Scott perpetuated another politically motivated attack today against Planned Parenthood that was disguised as a piece of legislation. Even worse, the bill aims to deprive some of the state's poorest women of basic health care such as access to contraception, cancer screenings or testing and treatment for sexually transmitted diseases. here
For all you Florida women who vote GOP!

Cuban Freedom Fighter: Rosa Maria Paya
Human Rights Foundation submitted an urgent appeal to the United Nations Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary, or arbitrary executions requesting that he call on the Cuban government to provide an official and comprehensive explanation regarding the state’s treatment of Rosa María Payá. The daughter of late Cuban dissident Oswaldo Payá, Rosa María has suffered death threats and acts of intimidation at the hands of state security forces while campaigning on the island. here
Through peaceful initiatives like Cuba Decide — a campaign that seeks a referendum which would allow Cubans to vote to change the constitution to allow for free and fair elections — Rosa María is continuing the brave work begun by her father almost 20 years ago,” here
Free Dinner With Florida GOP John Mica
U.S. Rep. John Mica likes taking constituents out to lunch (or breakfast, dinner or coffee). He also loves having his re-election campaign pay for it. The latter preference has Mica, a 12-term Republican from Winter Park, explaining why his re-election campaigns are paying for scores of “meals with constituents” tallying tens of thousands of dollars a year in food and drink, when other members of Congress rarely, if ever, do so. here

Weed Legal In Florida If You Can Prove You Are Dying In 12 Months
Rick Scott signed a bill making medical marijuana legal for people who can prove they're dying within 12 months.
The law is a total mistake, and here's why:
By passing this illogical, limited bill which does nothing for the vast majority of patients (whether they are dying or not), Scott and his cronies in the legislature will try to say they've already passed medical marijuana and therefore we don't need Amendment 2. They probably think this law gets them off the hook and/or will distract the public into thinking the job's done. They're wrong. While they've acknowledged that marijuana is medicine, the new law does nothing for people who are fighting to stay alive, who need marijuana to help inspire hunger and alleviate pain, or alleviate life threatening (but not necessarily fatal) seizures. The new law denies medical marijuana to soldiers with PTSD and to those with MS. Amendment 2 gives access to those who are seriously debilitated, whether or not they are dying within an arbitrary period of time. We MUST pass Amendment 2 for those patients and more. Please support our efforts and our drive for 1000 new donations between now and April 30. We only have 755 to go! Click here to support our 1000 donor drive with a contribution of any size. Thank you for everything you're doing to support medical marijuana in Florida.
