Today we are finding out more about a FL State Legislative House Bill that will cost our First Responders and all FL State Public workers some of their Retirement Benefits under the FRS fund...
A First Responder Friendly State Representative informed me of the progress of HB-5701 which is one of the first steps to create ways to get additional funds to help pay for Florida's State share of Medicaid and close the estimated $3.2 Billion State Budget gap. Here is the text message I got:
FYI:
FRS H.I.S. elimination bill 5701 was just read for the second time on the House Floor and moved to 3rd (final) reading. It was discussed for almost an hour. The questions (debate) were pretty much Dems Vs Rep. It was pretty sad. There were members of leadership from both parties laughing and joking as they were discussing this bill to take money from retirees.

That text message was received yesterday afternoon DIRECT from the floor of the FL House from one of the First Responder friendly FL State Legislators who wanted me to let everybody and anybody know what went on regarding HB-5701...
The career dissipation light of ANY FL State Legislator who votes FOR this measure, HB-5701, whether Democrat or Republican will be getting a lot 'dimmer' soon...
At what COST do we have to go to when we are talking about taking away from those who risk their lives daily so that others might live???
This is absolutely wrong and needs to be addressed in other ways! For example, how about that recent pay raise the FL State Legislators just gave themselves???
Is there anyone out there who thinks at a time when our economy is bad, with others having to scrimp just to stay in their residences, that any pay raise should be given to part time State elected officials who have other jobs to fall back on???
Also, let's see those cushy insurance plans our State Legislators have get CUT and make them pay for their own insurance. Why should we have to pay for them???
The time is way past overdue for some 'common sense' to enter in to how we run our Government at the Local, State and Federal levels. We need responsible Business knowledgeable people who know that to have a dollar means you only have 1 dollar and not try to create 2-3 or 4 dollars you don't have out of it...
TEA Party Movement followers are watching what's going on very closely and have been made aware of what is going on across America. You can bet this strong and dedicated group of American Patriots will make their feelings known at the voting booths this November 2nd during the Mid-Term elections and even sooner via special elections and primaries being held across America...
Politicians and Incumbents beware and better be careful what you cut because you might not get what you 'wish for'...
See that light dimming over to the West, that's the 'career dissipation light' of our Nations Incumbent Politicians who have not been listening to the American people...
God Bless & may God help America!
