In this week’s edition of Facing South Florida:
This was week one for the 2025 Florida legislative session. And already this year, there is a markedly different tone in Tallahassee. And that includes fewer divisive social issues than previously. CBS News Miami’s Jim DeFede goes one-on-one with Democratic State Senator Rosalind Osgood of Broward County about what she thinks is behind the changes.
Plus, DeFede introduces us to the new Chair of the Miami-Dade Democratic Party. Laura Kelley was elected to that position following the thumping Miami-Dade took in the November general election. Donald Trump’s blowout win in Miami-Dade ushered a wave of Republican candidates into newly created constitutional offices like Sheriff and Property Appraiser. Jim and his guest discuss, among other things, why Miami-Dade went ‘red’ and the future of the Democratic Party in the county.
Catch Facing South Florida With Jim DeFede Sunday at 11:30AM ET
