Capitol Update is a weekly review of state government.  This week’s topics include:   

  • The state provided free gasoline to drivers after Hurricane Milton and announced millions of dollars for infrastructure repairs.
  • The President-Designate of the Florida Senate toured the Spanish Lakes community where hundreds of homes were destroyed by tornadoes ahead of the hurricane.
  • The Florida Board of Education questioned some school superintendents about what they’re doing to turn around schools that aren’t meeting state standards.
