I am both honored and humbled to serve as Senate President for the 2000-2002 term. The opportunities that present themselves and the challenges we face are both exciting and daunt- ing as we address the needs of our nation's fourth largest state. Each of the Senate's 40 members represents a district comprised of constituencies with varied and unique perspectives of individual needs. Our responsibility to all the people of Florida will be to work together toward one common goal — to move the state forward in providing for its citizens through responsible legisla- tion. It has been said that one of the measures by which a society will be judged is the way it cares for its most vulnerable members. The Senate will discuss and debate About the Cover: many issues, but those of foster care, long-term care of the elderly, the homeless and children with developmental disabilities will be of paramount importance during my tenure as President.

I am confident that by working together, Courtesy: The Museum of Florida History we can make Florida a better place to live, work and play as we continue our ven- Used with permission of Katherine Harris, Secretary of State ture into the 21st Century.

  • TO: Senator Dole FR: Kerry RE: Clay Shaw Event March 13, 1994 Fort
    This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu TO: Senator Dole FR: Kerry RE: Clay Shaw Event March 13, 1994 Fort Lauderdale, Florida *Event is a reception for 75-100 people in a private home. They're looking for a few minutes of informal remarks. *A former Mayor of Fort Lauderdale, Shaw was first elected to Congress in 1980. Shaw had a tough race in a newly-reapportioned district in 1992, spending over $1 million, and eventually winning with 52%-37%. (11% was divided among four other candidates) *Shaw spent his first eight years in Congress on the Judiciary Committee, and then transferred over to Ways and Means. He cast decisive votes in Committee for the Catastrophic Health Care program, but quickly came out for repeal in 1989. *During the ABC child care bill, he joined with Congressman Stenholm to sponsor the alternative based on the theory that parents, rather than government bureaucrats, can make best decisions on child care. The alternative failed, but bill sponsors had to move in their direction to get a bill passed. *Shaw's staff said that he is now focusing his attention on welfare reform, where he has introduced a bill to take most people off welfare after two years, and require them to work for continued benefits.
