Here's what we're watching on Day 17 of the 2012 Legislature:

Santorum: Republican presidential candidate and former Pennsylvania U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum is scheduled to attend the Florida Leadership Prayer Breakfast, where Senate President Mike Haridopolos and House Speaker Dean Cannon also are expected.

Back in the Capitol, senators are slated to take up a bill limiting use of phones and texting while driving.

A Senate panel also looks at a bill to reduce hurricane assessments on homeowners' policies.

Students and higher education advocates will "Rally in Tally," opposing tuition increases among other issues.

Sick of driving? Rep. Jeff Brandes, R-St. Petersburg, has a news conference to demonstrate self-driving cars and to promote a bill he's sponsoring that allows their testing.

What should we talk about tomorrow? Tweet to us @PoliticsTBTimes.
