Florida’s economy keeps adding jobs, but many companies say they’re struggling to find workers. Plus, one of the state's first LGBTQ lawmakers says it's "hard to watch the actions of this governor" during Pride month.

It s true: Sorry is one of the hardest words to say.
But Sarasota Mayor Hagen Brody’s willingness to finally utter that word doesn’t change the need for a probe into whether Brody’s recent demeaning treatment of staffers reflects a troubling culture within City Hall.
A city government with a toxic and dysfunctional environment is one at great risk of poorly meeting its responsibilities to its citizens. That s why there must be a root-and-branch review into whether Brody’s behavior is a symptom of deeper issues that could be affecting how City Hall serves the citizens of Sarasota.
