Dockery’s in (again), Florida Senate prez is not so in on drilling, and what reform will do (or not do) for health care costs: Mitch Perry Report 11.10.09
November 10, 2009 at 10:18 am by Mitch PerryIn today’s report:
• There has been much written about Florida’s legislative leaders in 2010 (Dean Cannon and Mike Haridopolus) being advocates of offshore drilling, and how a repeal of the 1990 ban in Florida is only a matter of time.
Perhaps, but those officials aren’t completely in control right now. Jeff Atwater is in control of the Florida Senate, and he is in no rush to bring up the issue anytime soon.
• Although Paula Dockery filed paperwork last week declaring her candidacy for governor, the Lakeland Republican makes it official in Lakeland this afternoon.
• And health care. Yes, the House passed a bill over the weekend, but there are a number of critics who favor reform who say the bill does virtually nothing to contain costs.
