In the midst of everything you see that looks like it's dysfunctional in Washington, Marco Rubio and I actually get along.

Thanks also to the City of St. Pete, Pinellas County, for hosting us and to our colleagues, Kathy Castor, Charlie Crist, who represent this area so ably in the U.S. Congress.

This is an overwhelming outpouring of interest in the subject matter of today's hearing.

Thank you very much.

Thanks, Ms. Sollie.

the public has to raise their pitchforks, so to speak.

Turning on the plumbing and reversing that requires sustained commitment from the Federal and the state government.

We have been working for a long time on Everglades restoration to stop or reverse what man had done over three-quarters of a century.

As the Earth heats up... it's simply as the sun's rays come in and hit the Earth...

We thought maybe they wouldn't go any further north than the humid marshy environment of the Everglades, but if there is increasing warming temperatures, you're right, Dr. Larkin. That snake is going to move north.

But, unfortunately, other agencies are forced not to use it, which I think is un-American.
