Ep. 017: Senator Jeff Brandes talks priorities in Tallahassee, establishing a bold legislative vision, and following his "true north" in policy-making. - a podcast by St. Petersburg Group

This episode of SPx is a team effort. Joe and Ashley co-host the show for the first time, welcoming Senator Jeff Brandes to the studio. Senator Brandes gives us an in-depth view of his legislative agenda, talks prioritizing policy over politics and finding issues where he can make a real impact. Coming from a libertarian perspective, Brandes has never been afraid of crossing party lines. Establishing himself as a bit of a maverick, he was the first Republican to come out in favor of medical marijuana. He and his team focus on "transpartisan" issues - the latest of which are parental visitation, flood insurance, and criminal justice reform. Senator Brandes opens up about impactful legislation, the ups and downs of life as a legislator, and following his "true north."
