Florida's Congressional Scorecard

Do you know how your Congressional Representatives have been voting on clean water and clean air issues? Many of Florida's leaders have a 0% voting record on taking a stand for our public health and natural resources. Did your elected official make the grade? Check out our scorecard, then call your Representative and Senator and tell them to represent your interests, not special interests! Click on the link below to enlarge and see how your Representatives voted.

Protect your RIGHT to VOTE

The voting rights of Florida's citizens are under attack!  In May Governor Scott signed HB 1355, a politically motivated bill that makes it harder for minorities, college students, and low-income Floridians to register and vote.

This proposal must be approved by the Department of Justice before it can be enacted. Please contact Attorney General Eric Holder and ask him to protect our voting rights!

The law that is supposed to protect us from the health effects caused by toxic chemicals is not working.

The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) does not prevent us from being exposed, every day, to chemicals like formaldehyde, lead, and asbestos. These are cancer-causing chemicals and also result in reproductive problems and many other diseases.
