Box 1459 Tallahassee, FL 32302 (850) 224-3907 s (850) 681-2075 fax www.FHCA.org 2004 Election Guide for Long Term Care Facilities The 2005 Legislative Session will be a critical one for Florida nursing homes. The state budget crisis is such that legislators will not be able to avoid making serious and broad reforms in order to keep spending under control. The Medicaid Program is growing at leaps and bounds and executive and legislative leaders have stated that the program must be brought under control. Any major changes to the way Medicaid is financed will have serious implications for Medicaid recipients and providers, and for the state’s health care system as a whole. We must take every opportunity to ensure that we elect people who understand and support long term care providers. That is why the Florida Health Care Association is providing you with this election year guide. It contains information that the Association has collected on state Senate and House races. We do not intend it to be fully comprehensive; there are many candidates that we have not met. However, we share with you what we do know now so that you, your staff, residents and family members may become better educated as voters and more active in your elected official’s races. This guide contains the following items: * An outline of the 2004-2005 Grassroots Program - It describes our plan for the election and for the upcoming legislative session.

  • $43 Million Spent to Deceive Floridians and Stop Solar
    $43 Million Spent to Deceive Floridians and Stop Solar November 2, 2016 Lost in the tumultuous presidential election and the down- ballot fears, something big has been happening quietly in Florida this year: Electric companies have dropped $42.7 million into political campaigns. The Miami Herald has published this information on Amendment 1. This article can be read in its entirety at this link. Read to the end to see those who have received money from the utilities. Comments by OSFR historian Jim Tatum. -A river is like a life: once taken, it cannot be brought back- Florida’s utility industry gambit: $43 million to influence legislature and stall rooftop solar Lost in the tumultuous presidential election and the down-ballot fears, something big has been happening quietly in Florida this year: Electric companies have dropped $42.7 million into political campaigns. Since January 2015, $20 million of the industry’s profits went to finance and promote Amendment 1, the ballot initiative that attempts to frustrate the expansion of consumer-owned rooftop solar in Florida, but another $15 million more went to fuel the campaigns of a select group of powerful legislative leaders in an effort to prepare for a prolonged war against rooftop solar. The bulk of the money is being used to promote Amendment 1 but, if that effort fails, the industry is also investing heavily into the Legislature to create favorable conditions in Florida, as utilities have in other states, to push back against the proliferation of rooftop solar. In other states, that effort has included attempts to make solar less economically feasible by reducing the amount the utility spends to reimburse customers for generating excess electricity to the grid through “net metering,” imposing new fees on solar users and pre-empting local governments from opening the door to more solar competition.

On behalf of the millions of diverse constituents the Senate Democratic Caucus represents, we urge you to consider the dangers such a move presents. As you acknowledged earlier this month, we are experiencing a spike in incidents of gun violence throughout our state, most notably in South Florida. Florida kids are dying in the streets, and it is not at the hands of immigrants crossing the border. Your choice to divert Florida officers away from their local communities where they are desperately needed will handicap efforts to combat this critical and urgent public safety issue. Sheriffs’ deputies, highway patrol, the Fish and Wildlife Commission, and FDLE are all critical components in stemming the rising numbers of gun-related crime in our state, without which Floridians have diminished protection. Additionally, summer tourist season is upon us; with a reopened economy, surging numbers in communities coast-to-coast will demand a greater police presence to safeguard and protect Floridians and visitors alike.
