Good the bill was stopped by some reasonable heads finally but what will the Governor try now ? Hopefully he goes and hides somewhere until next year.
"Scott wouldn't say if he would order DOC to contract for the prisons' operation, if the bill fails."
"Why wouldn't we put ourselves in a position that, if we can save money to put the money in the programs that we need to fund -- whether that's education or Medicaid or any of our other programs -- why wouldn't we take this opportunity to save the money?" said Scott. "I'm hopeful that the House and Senate will approve it."

Look at all my posts and guess what DOC themselves are now requesting business proposals from the private companies on Everglades and Homestead C.I. according to a news article. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- "As Whitney Ray tells us, the future of Florida’s prisons is now in the hands of Governor Rick Scott, a major supporter of the failed privatization bill. It was a stunning defeat for supporters of privatizing Florida’s prisons, and a hard fought victory for correctional officers. A plan to privatize more than two dozen South Florida prisons was narrowly defeated in the Senate Tuesday. “This is bad policy. We should not be moving in this direction,” said State Senator Mike Fasano, minutes after the vote. But the privatization battle is far from over. Florida already has seven private prisons and two more could be added. The Department of Corrections is asking for business proposals to see if privatizing prisons in Homestead and the Everglades could save money. Governor Rick Scott could take action without legislative approval."
