Brandes, who is now overseeing the policy think tank The Florida Project, is surprised that the governor has yet to issue any details on a plan that would upend the state’s tax system.

On this week’s Facing, Jim talks with Miami Beach resident and former state senate candidate Raquel Pacheco about her controversial encounter with MB police officers.
