Randy  Cooper (above), Democratic candidate for the House seat representing District 71, is joining Steve and Lew this week to talk about his campaign and the issues he sees are critical to Florida residents. He will also offer his legislative plans should he be elected.

Later, Sarasota Waterkeeper, Andre Mele, will explain why the proposed legislation that would allow the state  DEP to completely take over permitting building on or near wetland from federal regulators may be a good idea for developers, but not such a great plan for the rest of us.
