  • The Florida Senate Handbook 2018-2020
    Message from the President Bill Galvano President of the Senate Welcome to the Florida Senate. We are so pleased you have taken time to experience a part of Florida’s past, present, and future by walking the halls and chambers where citizen-legislators have gathered for generations. The Florida Senate is comprised of independently elected women and men of differing walks of life, family backgrounds, and communities of faith. Each Senator comes to Tallahassee carrying the dreams, hopes, goals, and desires of over half a million Floridians. The microphones on our desks amplify not only our voices, but the 20 million Floridians we collectively represent. Only by working together can we effectively and efficiently do the job the people of Florida expect and deserve. During the 2018-2020 Legislative Term, we have much to focus on in both the short and long term; however, I am very optimistic. I have confidence in our forty Senators and faith in the great State of Florida. We have an amazing history from which to draw guidance, wonderful people to inspire us, and an endless palette to create the future. My colleagues and I share a commitment to the people of our state, the courage to boldly address the challenges of our day, and a passion for freedom and independence which has defined our nation, our state, and the institution of the Florida Senate throughout our history. You also play an important role in the legislative process, and we encourage you to stay involved by contacting your local Senator with suggestions, ideas, and feedback.

    THE FLORIDA SENATE COMMITTEES: Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1100 Appropriations Appropriations Subcommittee on the Environment and Natural Resources Banking and Insurance Ethics and Elections Regulated Industries Rules JOINT COMMITTEE: Joint Legislative Budget Commission SENATOR OSCAR BRAYNON II Democratic Leader 35th District February 20, 2017 The Honorable Rick Scott Governor, State of Florida Office of the Governor The Capitol Tallahassee, FL 32399 Dear Governor Scott: In 2011, during the height of the pill mill epidemic in Florida and an escalating death count from prescription drug abuse, you signed legislation allowing your Surgeon General to declare a public health emergency, giving the agency wide latitude to address the emergency. This action followed your deployment of local and state law enforcement agency resources to “the center of Florida’s prescription drug battlefield” as part of a multi-pronged attack on the prescription drug abuse and pill mill proliferation. This letter is to request that you issue a similar order urgently needed to address the growing threat and rising body count arising from Florida’s opioid-addiction crisis. No longer confined to small urban enclaves, heroin and fentanyl have become the scourge of communities throughout Florida, wreaking widespread devastation not only from the ravages of addiction, but the resurgence of deadly diseases associated with drug abuse. There is no family, no race, no ethnicity, no income level this epidemic cannot touch, and no effective state bulwark in place to stop it. The numbers are staggering. According to recent news reports, numbers from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement show a nearly 80 percent increase in heroin deaths and 77 percent increase in fentanyl deaths in Florida from 2014 to 2015.

According to reports, statewide, 84 percent of Florida s judges are white, only 9 percent Hispanic, and a paltry 6.6 percent are African American. Further, during your tenure, not a single African American judge was among your 32 appointments to Florida’s five appellate courts. With the upcoming mandatory retirement of three Justices on our highest court, the list of 11 candidates, none of whom are African American, and the fact that the JNC could have sent forward 18 candidates, we think it prudent that you impress upon the JNC the need for more names to be sent for consideration. Governor, as you may know, there are more than 3.5 million African American residents in Florida, the third largest state in the union, and you most certainly should care about limiting the diversity of those who will deliver justice to those who have risked everything seeking remedy.
