  • From March 30, 2011
    From March 30, 2011 Meeting for nearly 12 hours today, the House Appropriations Committee deliberated several of the House’s budget proposals by its respective appropriations subcommittees. Some of AIF’s top priority measures were included in today’s considerations, including: • HB 1405 Relating to Retirement: The House’s comprehensive plan to reform Florida’s Retirement System (FRS) is anticipated to save the state approximately $710 million. • HB 5101 Relating to Kindergarten through Grade 12 Education Funding: This proposal will allocate more funds towards technological expansion in schools while providing greater flexibility to school districts in implementing state-mandated class size requirements. In the Senate, members passed two growth management measures that have been a top priority for AIF since 2009. HB 7001 Relating to Growth Management and HB 7003 Relating to Affordable Housing, which are now heading to the Governor’s desk for his approval, were part of a landmark growth management bill that was ruled unconstitutional by a circuit court two years ago. Read more about these measures, and more, in today’s edition of the Daily Brief . Health Care This morning, the Senate Health Regulation Committee approved SB 1972 by the Senate Health and Human Services Appropriations Subcommittee. This bill will substantially reform the manner in which Florida's Medicaid Program is administered. Senate President Mike Haridopolos (R-Melbourne) kicked off the discussion by thanking members, particularly Senator Joe Negron (R-Palm City), for taking the time to delve into the details surrounding this important issue. Specifically, he asked for members' support of SB 1972 and said, "This is about access, but this is also about quality".

  • Week Three Session Summary March 28, 2011
    Week Three Session Summary March 28, 2011 THE RETIREMENT ISSUE COMES INTO FOCUS Rep. Ritch Workman (R, Melbourne) was at the Capitol this week moving his retirement bill, HB1405, along. As you may recall, his bill addresses several provisions related to the Florida Retirement System and largely aligns with many of the Governor’s proposals for reforming the FRS including employee co-pay and the elimination of DROP. This week the bill passed out of the State Affairs Committee by a 13-6 vote after several amendments were filed. One amendment sets the employee co-pay at 3%, down from 5%. You may remember that SB1130 sets the employee co-pay at 2%. The amendments did restore the Health Insurance Subsidy, as well as the multiple pay out accrual classes. HB1405 and SB1130 still Rep. Workman are not identical which will make for an interesting “conference” between the House and Senate to work out the final details of the FRS reform. Click on the link Retirement Bill Analysis for a full description of proposed changes. SB1160 by Gaetz; HB825 by Workman regarding DROP These bills are identical and will prohibit FRS employees retiring on or after July 1, 2011 (or entering DROP on or after July 1, 2011) from receiving both a retirement check and a salary from an FRS employer. The bill applies to all retirement classes and retirement programs. It states that rehired retirees cannot earn a second retirement benefit but the employer still has to pay retirement for the unfunded liability portion of rehired retiree. These provisions would also apply to retired FRS employees who contracts with FRS employers.

  • From January 10, 2012
    From January 10, 2012 Regarded as the official “kick-off” to Florida’s lawmaking session, AIF’s 2012 Legislative Reception welcomed several hundred attendees Monday evening, including state and federal law makers, members of the Florida Cabinet, and locally elected officials. Notable appearances included Governor Rick Scott, Attorney General Pam Bondi, Commissioner of Agriculture Adam Putnam, Chief Financial Officer Jeff Atwater, House Speaker Dean Cannon (R-Winter Park), Senate President Mike Haridopolos (R-Melbourne) and U.S. Congressman Steve Southerland (R-Panama City), among many others. With the2012 Legislative Session officially beginning today, Senate President Mike Haridopolos and Speaker Cannon called their respective chambers to order to lay the foundation for the lawmaking season. During his remarks, Speaker Cannon emphasized the importance of passing a balanced budget while continuing to facilitate a predictable climate for Florida’s businesses and families. President Haridopolos thanked lawmakers for their hard work in 2011 and promised to continue his focus on job creation. “That will be our primary focus once again this year and I’m glad we have a governor who focuses every single day on that effort,” President Haridopolos said. Following these speeches, Governor Rick Scott provided his “State of the State” address before members of the Legislature to share his vision for the forthcoming year. By emphasizing a recurring theme of “Let’s Get to Work…Together,” Governor Scott expressed a desire to promote cooperation by partnering with job creators while continuing his commitment to education. Governor Scott commended members of the Florida Legislature for their continued efforts to build a better Florida, citing that “last year you passed and I signed a budget we balanced without raising taxes or fees despite a revenue shortfall of nearly 4 billion dollars.

  • New Sachs/Mason-Dixon Florida Poll Shows Bill Nelson Vulnerable to Defeat in 2012
    For Immediate Release: Contact: Janelle Pepe February 15, 2011 (850) 222-1996 New Sachs/Mason-Dixon Florida Poll Shows Bill Nelson Vulnerable to Defeat in 2012 Tallahassee – Florida’s Senior U.S. Senator Bill Nelson is vulnerable to defeat in 2012, according to a new statewide Sachs/Mason-Dixon poll released today. “Regardless of his many years of public service, Sen. Nelson’s reelection in 2012 is anything but a sure thing – in fact, any of his prospective Republican challengers is positioned to be competitive and possibly win,” said Ron Sachs, president and CEO of Ron Sachs Communications who commissioned the poll. “This contest will be a national story, as will the fact that, if he ran and the election were held today, former Gov. Jeb Bush would beat Sen. Nelson.” In the poll of 625 registered Florida voters conducted Feb 9-10, 2011 by Mason- Dixon Polling & Research, Sen. Nelson fails to gain 50 percent support against any potential Republican challenger. “Bill Nelson will clearly have a much more difficult path to victory next year than he had in 2006. He is in trouble if voters in 2012 are looking to throw out career politicians like they did in the past election,” said Mason-Dixon Managing Director Brad Coker. “The fact that Sen. Nelson currently can’t crack 50 percent against any GOP challenger in a head-to-head match-up, including several lesser-known lawmakers, is a clear sign of vulnerability.” In hypothetical races, the Sachs/Mason-Dixon Poll shows: Former Gov. Jeb Bush leads Nelson 49 percent to 41 percent.
