""Government growing beyond our consent had become a lumbering giant, slamming shut the gates of opportunity, threatening to crush the very roots of our freedom. What brought America back? The American people brought us back -- with quiet courage and common sense; with undying faith that in this nation under God the future will be ours, for the future belongs to the free." Ronald Reagan (State of the Union Address 2/4/86)

There were many great accomplishments in the Florida Legislative session for 2011; the following are some areas where our Florida Senate Republicans were involved:
Educating Florida’s Children, Government Reform and Accountability, Honoring Veterans, Preserving Freedoms, Protecting Florida’s Consumers, Quality Healthcare Reforms, Restoring Florida’s Economy and Defending Life
Drawing on 157 redistricting maps submitted by citizens and on testimony by more than 1,600 people across the state, the Florida Senate today published proposed redistricting plans for congressional and senate districts. The plans, which can be found at www.flsenate.gov/redistricting, will define boundaries for voting districts for the next ten years, beginning with the 2012 elections.
All Floridians are encouraged to review the proposed redistricting plans and provide their comments and suggestions.
The proposals were developed by the Senate Reapportionment Committee based on bipartisan guidelines agreed to by all 24 of the Democrats and Republicans on the committee. All directions to staff and committee procedures have been agreed to in a bipartisan manner by the Senate Majority Leader, Andy Gardiner, and the Senate Minority Leader, Nan Rich. Also agreed to unanimously were instructions to staff to preserve minorities' access to the political system and avoid retrogression.
