TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - Florida House Speaker Will Weatherford is defending a push by the Florida House to hike university and college tuition 6 percent.

The House has included the hike in budget proposals that were unveiled this week. This puts the House at odds with Gov. Rick Scott and the Florida Senate.
