Governor Crist Noncommittal on WC Attorney's Fee Bill

By David A. McCranie, Esq.

Gov. Crist visited the Clearwater Regional Chamber of Commerce last night and, according to "The Buzz," the political blog of the St. Pete Times, had this exchange with the president of the chamber:

'We'd really like to see you support House bill 903,' Bob Clifford, president of the Clearwater chamber, told Crist, who was accompanied by his wife, Carole.

'I better write it down then - what's it do?' Crist asked.

 'Workers compensation.'

'Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,' Crist said, noting he met with Florida Chamber president Mark Wilson about it.

At the end, he was pressed again by another chamber official.

'Got it. Got it. I understand: 360, workers compensation. Got it in my notes,' Crist said, again making no promise.
