Tallahassee, FL - Florida Democratic Party Chairwoman Allison Tant today released the following statement in response to the resignation of Lieutenant Governor Jennifer Carroll.

STATEMENT FROM FL DEMS CHAIR ALLISON TANT:

"Floridians expected an administration focused on solving the problems facing Florida's families, but instead got a scandal plagued Governor and a revolving staff door. Rick Scott and his administration have made a mockery of the Governor's office - embarrassing Floridians while failing to accomplish his legislative priorities. Scott campaigned on changing Tallahassee but his first three years have been more of the same corruption and waste that taxpayers have come to expect from Florida Republicans."
