					<description><![CDATA[Summertime is here — well, almost. While Memorial Day commemorates the men and women who died while serving in the country’s armed forces, the holiday also marks the unofficial start to summer. And for many people, that means it’s time to start thinking about summer vacation. More than 39.9 million Americans are expected to travel more than 50 miles away from home this Memorial Day, making one of the highest volume of travel since 2005, according to AAA – The Auto&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Former Pinellas County Assistant State Attorney Berny Jacques is seriously considering a run for the state House District 66 seat next year, which will become an open seat with Republican Larry Ahern term-limited out. The 29-year-old Haitian native has been active with the Pinellas County GOP since he arrived in the community in 2009 to attend Stetson Law School in Gulfport. That&#8217;s when he says he was drawn into the grassroots aspects of state government. In many ways Jacques and his family are the embodiment&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Second in a series. Most people are familiar with this joke about lawyers. Q: What do you call 2,000 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean? A: A good start. Well, to newly installed House Speaker Richard Corcoran, if you substitute &#8220;lobbyists&#8221; for &#8220;lawyers&#8221; in that joke, it&#8217;d be twice as funny. Despite his brother being a lobbyist, Corcoran does not think highly of the profession and that is part of the reason why he has instituted a series of reforms which attempt to diminish&#8230;]]></description>

While Memorial Day commemorates the men and women who died while serving in the country’s armed forces, the holiday also marks the unofficial start of summer. That means baseball games and cookouts; road trips to the state’s theme parks; and a plethora of tourists visiting restaurants, beaches and hotels. More than 38 million travelers were expected to travel this holiday weekend, according to the AAA 2016 Memorial Day travel forecast. The motor group estimated&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Allyce Heflin, budget chief for the Florida House of Representatives&#8217; Education Appropriations Subcommittee, is heading to lobbying firm Southern Strategy Group. Heflin has been with the House since late 2006, according to her LinkedIn profile. Two years before that, she started in state government working in the budget office for the Florida Department of Education. &#8220;The Florida House&#8217;s loss is SSG&#8217;s gain,&#8221; said state Rep. Erik Fresen, the Miami Republican who chairs the subcommittee. &#8220;Allyce&#8217;s knowledge of education funding and policy issues is second to none.

					<description><![CDATA[Gov. Rick Scott gave a State of the State speech on Tuesday that was focused almost entirely on creating jobs and cutting taxes, boasting that Florida has added more than a million jobs since he took office. During Scott&#8217;s speech, there was, of course, the obligatory cheering and standing ovations. There was also &#8220;wooing.&#8221; At least, that&#8217;s how lobbyist Gus Corbella described it on Twitter. @GusCorbella: Wooing is never appropriate for the State of the State. This is a speech in the&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[As Southern Strategy Group grows its empire around the country, it continued to post gaudy lobbying figures in Tallahassee: The firm collected an estimated $3.1 million in consulting fees last quarter, according to a compensation report submitted Friday. SSG took in some $2.3 million from 241 legislative lobbying clients and reported $800,000 in fees from 242 executive branch contracts. The highest-paying contracts during the period between the April 1-June 30 were with Miami-based nursery and Charlotte&#8217;s Web license hopeful Costa&#8230;]]></description>
