Leadership Update

The 2008 Legislative Session is now underway!

House Democrats will work diligently during the next 60 days to bring common-sense solutions to the many challenges our state is facing. From the continued property insurance crisis to protecting middle class families from the economic and financial crisis Floridians are confronting, House Democrats stand ready to offer solutions.

This legislature has some heavy-lifting to move our state forward. On the minds of millions of Florida’s families is financial stability and economic prosperity. During this legislative session we must work to ensure that our families are safeguarded from the financial woes affecting our nation. We look forward to working with our colleagues in crafting solutions that meet the expectations of all Floridians.

This week, the Florida Legislature will be debating a budget cut proposal that aims to address the continued revenue shortfalls. House Democrats will be actively engaged in this debate and will offer alternatives that bring new opportunities to Floridians and that stimulates our weakening economy. We encourage you to learn more about the proposed budget cuts.
