Sink announces $12 million in savings for Florida citizens

Florida gubernatorial candidate Alex Sink sure knows how to bring home the bacon for citizens of the Sunshine State.

Sink, currently serving as the state's chief financial officer, announced a savings of $12 million for taxpayers today, based on the work she's done to best use the state's resources.

According to the St. Petersburg Times's blog, the cost-saving measures have included "more quickly settling lawsuits against the state, by preventing workers' injuries, and by getting medical care more quickly to workers who are injured so that they return to the job sooner."

Sink says she's working on ways to be an even better steward of Florida's funds. "And there are still many, many opportunities in state government to ... give us a new way to how we do state business," she said during a press conference today.

There's no doubt SInk brings a great deal of business experience to her current role -- and that's exactly the type of leadership Floridians deserve in the governor's mansion.
