2010: The Florida Amendments
Thus far, nine amendments and one referendum have been approved for inclusion on the 2010 ballot. In 2008, the Collins Center introduced an objective, non-political and informative online portal for citizens to learn about and discuss the ballot amendments that year. Once again, we present this online forum for the 2010 Amendments along with news and details of the proposals to be voted on November 2nd.
This blog will include updated posts about the Florida Amendments written by Collins staff and invited guests bloggers.
You, too, can stay informed and updated on the amendments and referendums. You have an opportunity to expand your understanding of these important public policy issues and voice your comments about why you favor or oppose them. Debate the merits, pros and cons of the 2010 Florida Amendments at www.flamendments.org

Data, Dialog & Transparency: The Federal Stimulus Program in Florida
Current efforts by the Obama administration are injecting $787 billion into the US economy through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). Of that amount, Florida is expected to receive up to $19 billion.
The Collins Center has undertaken an initiative to explore the spending of those dollars in Florida and the impact they are having on the state; its economy and its citizens. This Blog will include guest posts by invitation from people who have direct involvement in the administration of those funds or in the program. We welcome your comments and feedback.

Offshore Oil Drilling in Florida
An intense public debate is under way in Florida regarding the potential risks and rewards of offshore drilling in Florida's state waters. The questions, concerns, and arguments that have been expressed echo those associated with a longstanding political battle over offshore drilling in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico where federal moratoriums remain in place, but have recently been called for lifting by the Obama Administration. |
