Mr. President I say to my colleagues from Florida, I know how important restoring America's Everglades is to the United States and to the State of Florida, and I appreciate the efforts of Senator Nelson and Senator Martinez to keep this project on track.

With this in mind, I continue to believe this project should be funded through the Interior Committee, but I will work to ensure that all facets of the Everglades Project receives appropriate funding when our bill goes to conference.
