Thank you @repDWStweets for your continued support to restore America’s Everglades. Our water supply, our economy, and our future depend on #EvergladesRestoration
Great to meet with @evergfoundation last week to discuss how I can continue to support #Everglades restoration. The Everglades is the lifeblood of South Florida — we must restore and protect it to combat climate change and create jobs.
