PopTodd Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Only Republicans voted "yes." Anyone surprised?To be fair, many of the "no" votes came from Republicans, as well. But it appears that every Democrat (of which there aren't many) voted "no." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Doug C Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share Posted March 29, 2011 The chutzpah the legislature has is admirable. I wonder how much it would cost to make sure they leave my pension alone? The list of legislators and how they voted is for the tampa Bay area only. As both houses have strong Republican majorities, there is no doubt that this is a Republican initiated measure. Troxler makes another eloquent appeal to my fellow citizens in today's Times: "Let's say it again: Florida's legislators are for sale" http://www.tampabay.com/news/politics/stateroundup/lets-say-it-again-floridas-legislators-are-for-sale/1160221 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
