This is great news! Researchers have been working on greening resistant citrus varieties for years. đşđ¸ đ Now we must step up to get these new varieties to nurseries across the state, and onto the growers.
In the @EnergyCommerce Environment Subcommittee, we discussed the importance of local and government partnerships to ensure brownfields are able to be safely redeveloped. In Central Florida, many of these sites are now our theme parks, airport, and flourishing local communities. https://t.co/c88Ld9Anqq
In @NRDems, I asked @Interior @SecretaryBurgum about plans to work with @USFWS to protect manatees in key areas of our state. After the major mortality event a few years ago, it is critical that proper funding is allocated to prioritize conservation and recreation. https://t.co/WXSr0Vh1Tf
DeSantis presented a blatantly partisan map that clearly violates Floridaâs Constitution. Then bragged about it to the nation. At the injunction today, theyâre arguing the exact OPPOSITE to Judge Hawkes. Itâs understandably not going well for them⌠https://t.co/EzWHSW07wq
In @NRDems, I spoke to @Interior @SecretaryBurgum about collaborations between the Department & @USACEHQ to move major water projects forward, including the restorations of the Kissimmee Chain of Lakes & Indian River Lagoon. Proud of our work to protect FL's natural resources. https://t.co/CwgeoKGGEt
RT @UFHealthCancer: Grateful for the opportunity to connect with @RepDarrenSoto today at #AACROnTheHill and #AACIOnTheHill to share the impâŚ
The FL Constitution is clear. The map is illegal and it tears Central Florida apart. Tomorrow is the injunction hearing. The court can either defend justice or live in infamy. âď¸
I had the opportunity to visit the @USArmy SFC Paul Ray Smith, Simulation & Training Technology Center to learn more about their military readiness programs. Proud to see the STTC developing innovations through strong partnerships with @UCF and others in Central Florida. https://t.co/I3rBQnUrzA
This map is a blatant partisan gerrymander. The âsignsâ are flashing like a neon sign. DeSantis literally presented a red and blue district map on Fox News, bragged about adding 4 GOP seats and his own map drawer admitted using partisan data.
In honor of #NationalPoliceWeek, we met with @OrangeCoSheriff to discuss COPS and SAFER grants, as well as other federal funds to increase resources for local law enforcement. We are proud of our collaborations to ensure that those in charge of public safety have the support they need to succeed.
