  • Offshore Drilling

    Posted Sep 08 at 9 AM

    Once again this is being discussed in our legislature. Let me make it perfectly clear on where I stand, NO to drilling off any part of Florida's coastline whatsoever. This will NOT save you money at the pump, but it will save the Republican legislature's by plugging their $2.1 BILLION budget shortfall in the coming sessions by selling out Floridians to Oil Companies.

    Hillsborough Commissioners are playing politics at the expense of the well being of the community, $100,000 may not seem like a lot to them but it is money that could go to help needed programs that are suffering. They can keep the 24 cents that they just saved me, but I am glad that they can say they continue the 16 year streak of lowering the millage rate, I am sure that this will comfort those affected.
