I sent the following a few minutes ago to all Florida Senators even though I’m becoming more disillusioned with age:

What Florida Senators are Patriots? We may find out today.

Any Florida Senator who supports SB 670 for passage with SB 1890 incorporated IN ANY FORM, is either negligent or an outright shill for the banks.

From a resource that is helping keep politicians focused on what is in the best interest of their constituents rather than what is in their own self-interest:

“They removed the abandoned property section, so this was NEVER about abandoned properties! They also removed the required documents to be filed by the plaintiff to establish they have the right to foreclose. And I think the part that reduced the time on deficiency judgments is gone as well.”

and

“Not only are they slipping SB 1890 in 670, 670 states if you have a lease and it is not recorded in the public records it does not exist.

Hardly ever is a lease recorded in public records. These tenants had nothing to do with the foreclosure but the legislature wants to throw them out in the street too.”

For twenty plus years I served our country proudly in the U.S. Navy and am appalled at the self-serving and special interest serving obsequious character of many of our politicians today. Passing SB 670 with SB 1890 slid in while ‘no one is looking’ is the same deplorable rationale that brought us “We have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it.” Despicable behavior.

Anyone that votes for this legislation the way it reads as quoted above does not deserve the responsibility, honor and privilege that comes with serving in public office. It is your duty to personally ensure you know what the legislation will do in it’s entirety before casting your vote on our behalf.
