I ask the committee to work with the Corps on finding a solution moving forward that works for everyone, because we cannot let these important projects stall and fail.

The Corps changed their policy and now requires non-Federal sponsors to acquire perpetual construction easements from 100 percent--100 percent--of the upland owners within a project footprint.

The beach renourishment work the Corps performs along our Nation's coastlines is invaluable to our local communities, especially in south Florida.

To meet the Biden administration's ambitious goals for reducing U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, it is imperative that we adopt a comprehensive approach.

The Army Corps of Engineers has major ongoing projects throughout south Florida, from restoring the Everglades and investing in our ports, to fighting rising seas by nourishing beaches and managing flood risk.

I ask the Committee to work with the Corps on finding a solution moving forward that works for everyone.

By incorporating real-time emissions' measurements, and recommending operational and technical efficiency improvements, we can achieve substantial cost savings for American taxpayers, while also contributing to environmental conservation.

Using incremental funding demonstrably reduces project delivery timelines and costs, saving American taxpayer dollars while also preserving America's Everglades.

We must ensure that our policies reflect the needs of the people we serve.
