Florida grapples with worst drought in more than 20 years According to the latest drought monitor the entire state is dealing with drought conditions that range from abnormally dry to exceptional - the worst type of drought.

New FL laws preempt local governments from overseeing large developments, tying their hands when developers suck up resources. Anthropogenic activities make the droughts more extreme, then legislative activities make them harm regular citizens over political donors. #FloridaLegislature #drought

New day, pointless war. We are waging a war here in Florida, too, with the MAGAs in the legislature. They want to limit our freedom to vote. Their SaveAct will create unnecessary burdens to voting. Please send me to Tallahassee! #judyforsenate8.com

Environmentalists brace for 'session of sprawl on steroids' in Tallahassee Lawmakers are back in Tallahassee this week for their annual session. Environmentalists are concerned about bills that would reduce local government control over pollution and new developments.

Florida lawmakers are convening, and people who love Florida (as in the physical state of Florida) are worried. Bills that wrest local control of environmental assets like water, wetlands, rural areas, etc are proposed. At least massive developers will be happy! #FloridaLegislature #ProtectFlorida
