🪸 Florida’s reefs are in danger again. ⚠️ The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is proposing the largest permitted coral destruction in U.S. history just off the coast of Fort Lauderdale as part of a dredging project at Port Everglades.

SB 1066 / HB 981 would help restore the Ocklawaha River and reconnect 217 miles of rivers and springs for wildlife and people. For nearly 60 years, the river’s natural flow has been blocked, harming fish and wildlife, submerging springs, and disrupting a connected water system.

The House passed its budget with $0 for Florida Forever, but negotiations are not over. Lawmakers can still restore funding if they hear from Floridians who care about wild Florida.

Florida Forever is at risk. Proposed state budgets would eliminate or severely restrict funding for Florida’s premier land conservation program, threatening public lands and access. 👉 Take action: floridawildlifefederation.org/fund-florida-f… #FloridaForever #KeepFLWild #FWF #ActionAlert

⚠️ Reality: Budget proposals favor private land deals over protecting public lands. Florida Forever safeguards clean water, wildlife habitat, climate resilience, and public access before land is lost to development.
