Issue Position: Environmental Protection

Issue Position

Our unique ecosystems are some of the most beautiful in America, and I've made it a priority to protect them. From sponsoring legislation to create a taskforce to monitor sea level rise and climate change, to advocating for the increase in use of renewable energy, including solar, I've always stood strong for beautiful Florida.

I've opposed dangerous legislation that would legalize fracking, a harmful method of extracting oil, which can destroy our environment and even cause localized earthquakes. I also stand against offshore oil drilling. We can't let our pristine, white sand beaches fill with oil waste products or allow our beautiful sunset views to be obstructed by monstrous oil rigs.
