What really changes when you move from the Florida House to the Florida Senate?
On this episode of In Session, Representative Rita Harris sits down with Senator Kristen Arrington to talk about her transition from the House to the Senate, the differences between the two chambers, and what she has learned along the way.
They discuss the realities of passing legislation, including successful efforts like the Harris Rosen road designation and the challenges of moving legislation like language access. They also tackle myths about serving in the Florida Legislature, the lessons that come with legislative wins and losses, and what Senator Arrington hopes to accomplish in this next chapter of public service.
It’s a behind-the-scenes conversation about what serving in the Florida Legislature actually looks like and what changes when you move from one side of the Capitol to the other.
