Florida’s Legislature approved only three minor open records exemptions in its just completed its 2008 session, the lowest number in years. The state’s First Amendment Foundation largely credited Gov. Charlie Crist who “sent a clear message” on open government to lawmakers. Florida’s constitution requires a specific exemption approved by two-thirds of the leigslature to deny public access to a public record. (5/26/08)
