Legislative conservatives like Rep. Scott Plakon, R-Longwood – who's re-filed the constitutional amendment that says Floridians could not be compelled "directly or indirectly… to participate in any health-care system" – say they are determined to fight every way they can.
Plakon's House Joint Resolution 1 has already picked up a prime sponsor in the Senate: its new leader, Haridopolos.
