WHO IS LOOKING OUT FOR YOU? 

October 2009

Is Jim Waldman representing your interests?  Do his actions in Tallahassee reflect

your concerns and core beliefs?  Let's take a quick look at his voting record during

2007.  Then you decide.

 

HB 1B: Ad Valorem Taxation (also known as Amendment 1) was a bill to protect

homeowners by requiring local governments to cut "tax and spend" policies that had

been running wildly uncontrolled during the housing bubble.  Floridians voted for

the amendment.  The state legislature voted almost unanimously to pass the

subsequent bill.  ONLY ONE VOTE was cast AGAINST HB 1B.  Who cast that

single, dissenting vote?  You guessed it--Representative Jim Waldman!

HB 1231: The Prostitution Act was designed to protect victims of sex trafficking,

and especially to protect minors from such crimes.  Procuring a minor for

prostitution, forcing a person into prostitution, and sex trafficking were defined as

first-degree felonies, thereby increasing the penalty for such offenses.  Rep.

Waldman voted against this bill.

HB 71: Florida Unborn Victims of Violence Act addressed the killing of an unborn child by injury to the mother. 

The bill defined such killing of an unborn child as murder, regardless of whether the person committing the

offense knew the victim was pregnant or committed the offense with intent to harm the unborn child.  Rep.

Waldman voted against this bill.

This is not the type of representation I want for my family and the community where I live.  I hope you will

stand with me and consider making a contribution to my campaign.  Together, we can bring back responsible

government that answers to the people.
