FLORIDA - SENATOR RICK SCOTT'S WEEK IN REVIEW 10/16/2020

 

This week, Senator Rick Scott’s colleagues on the Senate Judiciary Committee proceeded with confirmation hearings for Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court. These hearings further proved that Judge Barrett is a nominee of unassailable credentials and qualifications, with a complete understanding that the role of the Judicial Branch is to interpret the law, not make it. Senator Rick Scott is proud to support Judge Barrett’s nomination, and looks forward to voting to confirm her to serve as an Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. See more of what Senator Scott has been up to this week below.

As Florida’s Panhandle works to recover from the impacts of Hurricane Sally, every Florida family should take the opportunity to make sure they are prepared for any future storms throughout the 2020 Hurricane Season. Severe weather can approach quickly and should never be underestimated. Although preparing for a storm might look a little different amid the coronavirus, we cannot let our guards down, and must do everything we can to ensure our families stay safe.
