    Rubio is a big SB6 fan and he’s leading 3 to 1 in NWFL. Apparently alot of people dont have a problem with this bill. How dare anyone think teachers should have accountability. Parents are an issue, but it’s not always the parent’s fault. We have some great teachers but I have seen more than a few “bad apples.” These “bad apples” make the good teachers jobs even harder. I see first hand how this affects the educational process. Its sad when a teacher won’t let their child take a class because another teacher is incompetent or has emotional issues that consume the classroom and after numerous complaints that teacher remains at the school.

    Look at how many “Political Affairs” type donations Evers has received. That alone should tell you that he will not be working with our best interest at heart. He like so many other career politicians will be far more concerned with appeasing the interests of campaign contributers e.g. LOBBYISTS!!!

    Your right bamagirl21 he wants to protect those in his district just not Teachers. Let me see how many Teachers are in his district along with family , friends and just concern voters that respect our hard working Teachers I think if work hard enough we can bill 6 him out off office!!!!!!!!

    Yes, and so did Dave Murzin. At least we know Greg is not to afraid to go against house leadership to protect those in his district…anyone remember the train???

    And as for the insurance agent, who really knows for sure how he will vote. Talk is cheap, I’ll be voting on what I have seen in action. Greg has my vote!
