					<description><![CDATA[This is the first legislative session that South Florida’s Oscar Braynon II will be the Senate’s Democratic Leader. The 40-year-old, who succeeded term-limited former Leader Arthenia Joyner, was first elected in 2011 after serving in the House and on the Miami Gardens City Council before that. Though he’s in the minority, Braynon has high hopes for legislative breakthroughs with the GOP majority under President Joe Negron. “We have a good personal relationship and we’ve helped each other before we were&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[State Rep. Larry Ahern filed a bill Tuesday that would require the creation of civil citations or similar diversion programs for juveniles. &#8220;We cannot continue to arrest more than 10,000 nonviolent juvenile offenders who do not have a full understanding of the consequences of their actions,&#8221; the Seminole Republican said. &#8220;We should look at this as a teachable moment and allow them the opportunity to correct their behavior.&#8221; The bill is a companion to a Senate bill filed by Republican Sen. Anitere Flores of Miami. Flores&#8217;&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[After several significant changes, SB 314, which initially placed numerous restrictions on prosecutor’s ability to unilaterally charge juveniles as adults, is now moving to the House. Sponsored by Miami Republican Sen. Miguel Diaz de la Portilla, the bill will continue to give broad discretion to prosecutors, as well as instituting more accountability and reporting requirements. Originally, the measure proposed a two-tiered system to restrict so-called “direct file” to serious crimes and protect younger children from the process As reported by&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[A bill to “streamline” the process for minors to expunge their criminal records bill passed unanimously in the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday.
