Issue Position: Safeguarding the Environment and Florida's Water

Issue Position

Florida's natural environment and water are among its most valuable treasures and help attract millions of tourists every year. For far too long Florida Republicans have denied climate change, causing decades of irreparable damage. We need to lean on environmental scientists to help us enact the necessary protections for our coasts, springs, rivers, lakes and other waterways; invest in renewable energy; and reduce plastic waste. I have long been committed to protecting our environment and currently serve as Chair of a working group on the health of Lake Okeechobee as well as on the South Florida Water Coalition advisory board.
