Integrity Florida Supporters,    
 
In case you missed it, Integrity Florida published our "Corruption Risk Report: Enterprise Florida" on April 25.  Watch video of our press conference (part one) (part two).

Since the publication of this first Integrity Florida research report, the findings of our startup nonpartisan research institute have received nearly one million household views on television, significant discussion on radio and articles in most major Florida newspapers.

The following is a sampling of the coverage of our report along with newspaper editorials supporting our research recommendations.  We have also included updates about what others are saying about the ethics reform and open government initiatives of Integrity Florida.
