TALLAHASSEE – Today, Governor Rick Scott issued the following statement on Representative Patronis’s decision to not pursue another term in the Legislature:
Governor Rick Scott said, “Representative Patronis has been an incredible ally in our mission to improve the quality of life for families in the Sunshine State. Thanks to his hard work, Florida families today have access to more jobs, a better education system and a lower cost of living. We have worked together to deliver incredible wins for Florida families – by eliminating the tax on manufacturing equipment that hindered job growth and providing Florida teachers a well-deserved pay raise. I look forward to continuing to work with Jimmy as we fight to create more jobs and opportunities for Florida families.”
