Seeking Rents
Introducing Seeking Rents, a newsletter focused on delivering original journalism while also highlighting the work of other journalists. It investigates how businesses shape public policy throughout Florida, from local city councils to the state Capitol. Seeking Rents is created by Jason Garcia, a prominent reporter known for his work on corporate accountability in Florida. With several prestigious state and national awards to his name, Garcia is the author of “Big Profits, Tiny Taxes,” which delves into how corporations evade taxes in Florida and suggests solutions for policymakers. He also reported in 2021 on the use of undisclosed funding in a scheme aimed at influencing critical Senate elections through “ghost candidates.”
