Start with this: Lower the speed limits on all Florida roads - trucks limited to the right lane only - no U-turns on divided roadways - add a few seconds to the yellow on all stoplights - double the fines on all moving violations.

Why limit truck to right lane it is safer for them in the left lane you dumbass

I have faith in the governor. We need change in the Florida department of corrections.

I wouldn’t hold your breathe. I don’t see much in the way of appointments for corrections experts. I wish Alison DuFour was on there. Of course GEO is on there and a bunch of police, teenagers and even people with absolutely no expertise in the topic areas, education of leadership in any kind of public agency. So not feeling optimistic for DOC.

Christina, all you ever do with corrections is complain. And the irony in you citing GEO and then saying you want Allison DeFoor on there, who was in bed with Wackenhut (G4S) who was the holding firm that used to own GEO, shows your blatant lack of knowledge for this background and insertion of "feelings" into a conversation rather than facts. you're just butthurt you and your cronies couldn't carve out a place on the committee. Go back to your armchair sweetie.

Christoph P? Lisa? Don’t hide.....I’m on Facebook. Also don’t use anyone else like you have in the past, little girl.

Your so personal about it. I made no attempt to get on the committee Mr. Know it all. However I’m happy to know someone thinks our sentencing and corrections system is so good and not deserving of any complaints. LOL It must be nice to have your head in the sand. DeFoor at least as an academic background and a much higher understanding of the topic. Butt hurt and cronies? Well I guess you know me and I must offended your snowflake butt at some point. Don’t worry, I have no apologies to offer. God bless you dear!

Great I was hired from a car dealership and now I was getting food to get votes and i will be fired! This is not fair!

They haven't even started and you're already condemning them. What's wrong? Mad you didnt make the cut?

Looks like more than enough Law Enforcement "CHIEFS", and a "bunch" of petty, self-promoted "social engineer" Junior College attendee 'certificate holders', augmented by too many "Marjorie Stoneman High" 'busybodies'... and a couple of "military social 'cumbaya' wonks".... GOOD LUCK at THOSE "regular attendance meetings" Folks..! (Can you say "Chinese Fire Drill"?!?). I expected more from DeSantis than "50 person Committee" public declarations once a month from here-on-in... "Rule By Committee"...(That doesn't work in Congress either; There's just NO accountability..! )

Another whiny liberal goes on a rant. Yawn!!!

REMEMBER,...The "Camel" was created by a "committee": they ended up with an irascible "horse" that couldn't be trained; was almost always uncomfortable and impossible to ride; spit on, and tried to bite its riders; was always resistant to any manner of control; fought with other Camels nearby; and whined and bayed constantly. (Don't expect much from this hastily cobbled "committee" either..)

Hey!

Couldn’t agree more.
