Apparently, the IRS needs some lessons on ethical behavior. It also appears that they are in need of a budget. Obviously, there was no leadership at a recent IRS funded convention, resulting in an incredible amount of money spent on prostitution, entertainment, food and liquor. Not only were these funds spent inappropriately, but no receipts were kept to justify these expenses. Apparently, unlike the common man, the IRS is not required to produce receipts to prove legitimate expenses.

Dear Senators Rubio and Nelson,

Sequestration, Now (4-7-13): Fewer employees 10 plus, restroom closures, picnic shelter closures, reduces grounds maintenance, trash can elimination, less storm-caused sand removal, longer storm-caused road closures, visitor center closures, fewer Ranger-led programs, reduced facilities maintenance and shorter lifeguard hours.

The Arc of Florida is working to make changes to state laws that are long overdue.  Senate Bill 142, the Intellectual Disabilities Bill, would remove the term “mental retardation” and replace it with “intellectual disability” in state statutes.
