Our Enviromental Governor - "U.S. Reps. Porter Goss of Sanibel and Clay Shaw of Fort Lauderdale cautioned Friday that a sugar industry-backed proposal being debated in the state House of Representatives could put at risk a 'fragile partnership' between Washington and Florida, which are splitting the tab for the 30-year cleanup project." However, "Bush said Monday that [the] two Republican congressmen got it wrong when they warned state Republicans that a proposal under consideration in the House could jeopardize the $8 billion Everglades restoration effort." Bush said the veteran GOP "congressmen 'need to be briefed' on the issue". At the same time, thae Florida Audobon Society says: "'With all due respect, it's the governor who has it wrong,'" See "Bush: Sugar bill no Glades threat - Pollution standards weakened, state environmentalists argue"
Good Luck - "Perhaps bankers and builders will succeed where others have failed -- convincing Gov. Jeb Bush and the Legislature to call off a raid on trust funds established to provide a steady stream of revenue for affordable-housing programs." See "Trust-fund battle joined Bankers, builders send Legislature a welcome message".
Internet Sales Tax Proposal - The Daytona Beach News-Journal likes the idea, pointing out that "As the Internet becomes more prominent in everyday life, the state sales tax -- the base of Florida's budget -- becomes shakier."
