Mark on the "For Sale" Florida Legislature

"Special interests in Tallahassee have grown fat and powerful and had their way far too long in damaging the people's interest. Big money has bought influence and placed a big "FOR SALE" sign on the Capitol. With your support I want to take that sign down. Exposing the sweetheart deals and profiteering that diverts needed state dollars from critical services must be stopped. It will take time, but working together with a strong voice, we can stop the influence peddlers from selling Florida's future to the highest bidder. Getting rid of 'no bid' contracting procedures; better accountability and oversight; and full public disclosure can go a long way to cleaning up the profiteering mess that has been created in Tallahassee."
