Sen. Fasano vs. Sen. Fasano?

Rich Text Area.

So state Sen. Mike Fasano didn't like the federal stimulus package before he
liked it?

In
a letter to former House Speaker Marco Rubio that we posted earlier
, Fasano
notes that the federal stimulus package was needed in Florida "to protect our
seniors, protect our school children, and keep from adding to our struggling
resident's tax burden."

Good points.

But would the Sen. Mike Fasano of February agree with the Sen. Mike Fasano of
November? In February, our St. Pete Times colleague Adam Smith asked Fasano
"Bottom line, do you support Congress passing that stimulus package."

Fasano: "No I do not."
