Gubernatorial Candidate Statement
Today, Democratic gubernatorial candidate Jeff Greene issued the following statement in response to news reports of “gross misconduct” in Commissioner Adam Putnam’s Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services:
“The Florida Department of Agriculture has been bought and sold by proud NRA sellout Commissioner Adam Putnam. Employees are being told they ‘work for the NRA,’ not the people of Florida, concealed weapons permits are being handed out like lollipops – what egregious breach of trust will be exposed next? This is life and death. If Rick Scott won’t stand up and remove Putnam from public office, voters will. We’ve had it with lies, corruption, and the priorities of deep pocketed special interest groups being placed over public interest.”
