Starting our year out right, by looking left -- Florida Progressive leaders share their vision for 2016. Can sanity be restored in Florida's legislature? Will the legislative leadership continue to override the greater public interest on a long list of issues? Will Crisafulli be held accountable for Amendment 1 funding failures and more? What's happening in the growing progressive community across Florida?
