Bill Nelson actually said...

"Florida is facing an environmental and economic harm, where toxic algae is coating--it's coating both coasts."

"It's not a partisan issue. That bill that you talked about, that I introduced a year ago, we passed it."

"We applaud the Committee's willingness to take on this important issue, and ask Congress to provide assistance to our state agencies and local governments in their clean-up and recovery efforts."
