A week after Florida voters elected them, 66 new state lawmakers — who make up 40 percent of the entire Legislature — will be in Tallahassee on Tuesday for training and orientation. More than a third of the 120-member House and half of the 40-member Senate are new to their legislative seats for 2017. Many have held elected office before (even within the Legislature itself), but for several, this is their first foray into elected public service.
