Richard, (formerly Rick) says: "Ricky failed to get teachers their pay raise because he doesn't know how to be a politician. What we're left with is that at the end of NEXT school year, SOME teachers may get SOME kind of raise-maybe. Thanks for nothing Ricky and your puppet master, Speaker Weatherford."

I work for a senior arcade that caters to seniors and thats all they have and he took it away because they are getting paid off from the big casino which is a bigger crime."

Amy Plutino says: "Rick Scott cares nothing about the majorities accessibility to competent healthcare and live-saving medications. I lost my 33 year old son 6 months ago; largely due to his polices that have only one "retired" health department doctor for all of central Florida and he allows "the totally for Profit" Dr's. and hospitals dictate who receives adequate care and medications based on "financial and social status. Please see my group: ADVOCATES FOR EXTREME HEALTHCARE REFORM. "

Mary Manupella says: "His refusal of millions dollars of federal funds has damaged our state and has saved no one any tax dollars. When Scott turns down Federal money other states get our share. If anyone would like to know what it is to have the Tea Party in power, just come look at Florida--a disaster. He wasn't worried about tax dollars when his company was defrauding Medicare. Why he is FL's governor and not in prison is the only mystery,."

Who is on our side?

Who is on our side? While Rick Scott and his Pink Slip Puppets constantly attack working families with an extremist, job-killing agenda, is anybody standing up for the middle class?

Oh yeah. You better believe it.

There are 27 members of the Florida Legislature who voted 100% to protect and expand the middle class. They are Champions of Florida's Middle Class, and their unwavering support deserves to be recongnized.

Find out who made the list of Middle Class Champions and send your message thanking them for standing up to Pink Slip Rick. Click here!

Florida Watch Action, Progress Florida, and America Votes have come together in recognition of these 27 legislators, because they are the Middle Class Champions who said NO to Rick Scott's destructive budget – which dramatically underfunds schools, cuts hundreds of millions from health care for our children, seniors, and the disabled, and costs thousands of jobs. Meanwhile, the budget creates more than $100 million in new special interest tax giveaways.

But this about more than just one vote. From prison privatization to attacks on women's health, the Middle Class Champions fought back. From parent trigger, to unfair foreclosures, to intrusive drug testing, these 27 legislators cast their votes against Rick Scott's radical agenda.

Meet the Middle Class Champions now. Send your message to thank them for voting on behalf of working families 100% of the time.

Thank you,

– Amy
