In this week’s edition of Facing South Florida:
State Senator Joe Gruters joins Jim DeFede from Washington, DC, where he will attend Monday’s Trump Inauguration. The two discuss the Trump transition, as well as Governor DeSantis’ appointment of Ashley Moody to fill the Senate seat being vacated by Marco Rubio, who is pretty much assured Senate confirmation to be the next U.S. Secretary of State.
Plus, DeFede talks to State Representative Hillary Cassel, who breaks her silence about switching her political party affiliation from Democrat to Republican. Cassel represents a predominantly Democratic district in Broward County. Her decision to leave the Democrats and join the GOP came after her November re-election victory. Jim and the representative talk not only about the reasoning behind her decision, but the timing of it.
Catch Facing South Florida With Jim DeFede Sunday at 8:30AM ET
