A lot of people like to try and call these things early. A lot of things happen in the last week of the session. We're not seeing any indication that it's not going to be possible to pass these bills. |
Any citizen may report violations of the notary law. We have not received a complaint regarding this incident. |
Florida is too dependent on fossil fuels for our energy. With the vulnerability we have to hurricanes, there's a lot of potential for the supply to be cut off. |
Gov. Bush fully acknowledges that there is still work that needs to be done and has proposed reforms that will build on our successes and continue this progress. |
Gov. Bush is for accountability. I think it's clear to a majority of the legislature the benefits the A-plus plan has brought. |

He tends to support policies which would broaden opportunities for voters to register. |
He's always been a strong advocate for tax relief and believes some of the surplus should be returned to taxpayer pockets. |
If an elected official is charged with a felony, the governor will suspend them from office, then if they were convicted they would be removed, and if they are acquitted they would be reinstated. But misdemeanors are all handled case-by-case and there is no certain time to have that done. |

It would be inappropriate to comment as this is a matter of an ongoing investigation. We have been cooperating with law enforcement and the governor took action when it was appropriate to do so. |

It's unfortunate that after more than two decades on Death Rows, and several years since lethal injection was instituted, that these objections would be raised at the last minute. It causes undue stress on the victims' families. |
