Water is Florida's most important natural resource.
To preserve FL's vital marine ecosystems, I'm proud to introduce the Protecting Communities from Harmful Algal Blooms Act, which allows for the inclusion of' algal blooms' to be included in Major Disaster Declarations.
I'm thankful to my colleagues for their support of this bill:
Rep. Gus Bilirakis (FL-12)
Rep. Kathy Castor (FL-14)
Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (FL-25)
Rep. Scott Franklin (FL-15)
Rep. Carlos Gimenez (FL-26)
Rep. Al Lawson Jr (FL-05)
Rep. Brian Mast (FL-18)
Rep. Bill Posey (FL-08)
