Yes RJ, I have talked to many with that point of view as well, and that is
why I would suggest, is why Mr. Sayer poseted Mr. Cannon's words for us all
to read. All I am saying is that many have said that we need to learn more
before we make a decision one way or another. We have obcviously, lots of
time to work with the powers that be in Tallahassee to better understand
our position and sway, hopefully, them to our point of view and make the
right decision! I have faith in our state organizations Leaders to do just
that! KH

againist dismanteling services. Jessica Moss and I have discust this as
well, and I don't think she is a part of a consummer group, and so I showed
her the proposal, and she said that wasn't going to be good for us as blind
people! RJ

>>>
>>> TO: Members of the Florida House of
>>> Representatives
>>> FROM: Dean Cannon, Speaker
>>> DATE: February 3, 2011
>>> RE: Select Committee on Government
>>> Reorganization
>>> The 2011 Legislative Session is an opportunity for transformational
>>> change. We should thoughtfully and systematically pursue true reform
>>> and
>>> avoid
>>> the temptation to make changes simply for the sake of change.
>>> Some policy conversations reach beyond the scope of an individual
>>> Member
>>> bill and do not fit neatly inside our predefined committee structure.
>>> For
>>> that reason, pursuant to Rule 7.6, I am hereby creating the Select
>>> Committee
>>> on Government Reorganization.
>>> Privatization, performance standards, running government like a
>>> business,
>>> and information technology are appealing ideas but not panaceas.
>>> Reform
>>> cannot consist of simply combining, recombining, dividing, or
>>> redividing
>>> government agencies. Our goal instead is to engage in the work of
>>> identifying
>>> the specific and necessary work of government in order to eliminate the
>>> extraneous tasks that have been added over the years. Florida
>>> government
>>> should be focused on core goals and structured to achieve those goals.
>>> To convey the importance of this select committee’s mission, I have
>>> asked
>>> Speaker pro tempore John Legg to serve as the chairman and Rules &
>>> Calendar
>>> Chairman Gary Aubuchon to serve as the vice chairman. Speaker pro
>>> tempore Legg and Chairman Aubuchon are both well known for their work
>>> ethic,
>>> seriousness of purpose, and skill in handling complex public policy.
>>> The Select Committee on Government Reorganization’s initial charge will
>>> be
>>> twofold: first, to look at government programs that purport to promote
>>> or
>>> regulate private sector economic activity; and second, to look at
>>> government programs involved with health and human service delivery
>>> systems. As
>>> time permits, the select committee may also pursue government
>>> reorganization
>>> initiatives in other areas. The select committee is also encouraged to
>>> look beyond statutory changes and consider possible ballot initiatives.
>>> More
>>> than a decade after the last Cabinet reorganization, now is an
>>> opportune
>>> time to examine whether the centralization of authority associated with
>>> those
>>> constitutional changes has produced the expected or desired outcomes.
>>> Members interested in serving on this select committee should express
>>> their interest to the Speaker’s Office by the end of business on
>>> Monday,
>>> February 7, 2011. Please be advised that service on this select
>>> committee will
>>> likely require a significant investment of time. I have indicated to
>>> the
>>> Speaker pro tempore that I expect the select committee’s work to be
>>> analytical, practical, exhaustive, inclusive, and conducted in public.
>>> In addition,
>>> Members and stakeholders should be advised that it is my intention to
>>> refer the product of this select committee to the Appropriations
>>> Committee and
>>> then to the Floor.
>>> I have assigned Teresa Tinker, staff director for the Economic Affairs
>>> Committee, and Carol Gormley, staff director for the Health and Human
>>> Services Committee, to serve as the lead staff for the select
>>> committee.
>>> I will
>>> allocate additional staff resources as necessary.
