Presented by Dan Krassner, Executive Director of Integrity Florida

Florida received a C-minus for corruption risk on State Integrity Investigation's Corruption Risk Report Card. On a report that graded the state for transparency and accountability, Florida had several categories with poor grades, including a failing grade for ethics enforcement agencies and a D+ for Public Access to Information.

The Center for Public Integrity, Global Integrity and Public Radio International collaborated with experienced journalists in each state to produce the State Integrity Investigation research. The State Integrity Investigation was an unprecedented, data-driven analysis of each state's laws and practices that deter corruption and promote accountability and openness. Journalists graded each state government on its corruption risk using 330 specific measures. View the full Corruption Risk Report Card for Florida at www.stateintegrity.org/florida.

Integrity Florida is using the results of State Integrity Investigation to push for ethics reform.  Dan Krassner will bring a discussion about the group's recommendations to this event.
