Business Brief: Senate Hopeful Lopez-Cantera Visits JAX Chamber

Last week, Florida Lieutenant Governor — and Senate hopeful — Carlos Lopez-Cantera stopped in Jacksonville. The only meeting on his schedule that day was at the Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce.

In this week’s Business Brief, analyst John Burr tells WJCT News Director Jessica Palombo, the meeting is just one example of how the Jax Chamber is getting more involved in politics.

You may have once seen her on a local community theater stage. These days, you can most likely catch her reading a book in a school pickup line.
