Pam Bondi hypocritical

When it came to the state constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage, which was discriminatory from its inception, Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi couldn’t spend enough money defending it. The reasoning was that it was her office’s job to protect the state constitution and the voting majority that approved it.

Yet, when the Legislature and the governor’s office try to use any loophole they can to disregard Amendment 1, the new land-preservation amendment, and the older amendment limiting class size, both hugely popular with voters, we have yet to hear one word from Bondi or her office.
