TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - Protesters marched to the capitol on Saturday demanding that the Florida senate vote against the current version of the pro-fracking legislation.

Health professionals, environmental advocates, as well as community leaders say the bill preempts local communities from banning fracking, as well as fails to address issues with matrix acidization. The rally began at Cascades Park and ended in the capitol courtyard.
