House Continues Hectic Pace as Session Winds Down

“Nothing like a little drama on Monday on Week 9,” said Speaker Dean Cannon, R-Winter Park, after reading the results.

In a strange twist, Rep. Gary Aubuchon, who chairs the Rules and Calendar Committee, served as the floor manager against Corcoran’s measure, recognizing other members of the House leadership in attacking their fellow Republican’s bill. Rep. Rob Schenck, R-Spring Hill, chairman of the Health and Human Services Committee, managed the floor for Corcoran’s bill.

Republicans, including Rep. Ed Hooper of Clearwater and Rep. Bill Proctor of St. Augustine, attacked the research behind Corcoran’s bill, insisting that their own findings showed red-light cameras helped increase public safety. Other Republicans like Rep. Eddy Gonzalez of Hialeah Gardens, Rep. Clay Ford of Pensacola and Rep. Matt Hudson of Naples insisted that the red-light cameras dramatically increased safety and pointed to statistics from their own region.

“I believe the red-light cameras are about awareness,” said Gonzalez, arguing that motorists know where the cameras are and drive safer.

“Red-light cameras have stopped accidents,” said Rep. Rich Glorioso, R-Plant City. “They save lives.”

Schenck managed representatives from both parties who insisted that the red-light cameras were all about increasing revenue instead of improving public safety.

“The only thing this law is doing is generating revenue for municipalities,” said Rep. Luis Garcia, D-Miami.

“Red-light cameras present a real disincentive for local governments to fix the problem,” said Rep. Peter Nehr, R-Tarpon Springs.

The House passed HB 479, a measure from Rep. Mike Horner, R-Kissimmee, backed by the Florida Medical Association, that would make the state Department of Health issue expert witness certificates for out-of-state as well as in-state medical witnesses and would increase protection for hospitals when contracted employees are sued for malpractice. The measure passed 88-28.

Republicans urged the passing of the measure, arguing that it would help reduce medical and insurance costs while offering some control over medical liability insurance and other costs.
