The Heroes

These Florida lawmakers fought back against powerful and influential corporations and their lobbyists. They used their voices and their votes to put the needs of everyday Floridians – affordable housing, access to health care, living wages, and more – at the forefront of the legislature’s agenda.

The Zeros

These Florida leaders routinely prioritized corporate greed – wasteful tax breaks and giveaways to the wealthiest and most powerful corporations – at the direct expense of the needs of everyday Floridians.

Who's Pulling The Strings?

Corporate donors and front groups like these have made the Florida Legislature the “best legislature money can buy.” They ensure their narrow agenda – putting their profit margins over the needs of everyday Floridians – is what gets heard in the state capitol.
