What You Should Know About The Florida Legislative Session

The state legislature convenes next week. And we’ll give you context to understand the 60-day bonanza that begins on March 4.

Will gaming be expanded? Why did a state senator introduce a bill to legalize medical marijuana in advance of the voter referendum? How will the state’s child protective system be overhauled?

Host Tom Hudson speaks with Steve Bousquet of the Tampa Bay Times, Kelli Kennedy of the Associated Press, and Gina Jordan and Sammy Mack of WLRN-Miami Herald News.

We’ll also discuss the protests in Venezuela and whether they are likely to lead to lasting change. Tim Padgett from WLRN-Miami Herald News will explain, along with Beatrice Rangel, former chief of staff to Venezuelan president Carlos Perez.
