Sunshine Statement

#SunStatement: From a man geographically born, raised and forever shaped in the Sunshine State. Notice Bob Graham's genuine and heartfelt statements about freedom in Florida.

A precautionary boil water advisory has been issued for 18 homes, within the Embassy Lakes community, due to a water main break at 10624 Managua Avenue. See more information: coopercity.gov/article/2419531.

Almost all of them Hispanic. Almost all of them could have been someone I know. Someone YOU know. And where are the Florida Republicans who claim to love the Everglades? Silent.

I am a Colombian immigrant. I am a Floridian. And I am furious. @DWStweets walked into Alligator Alcatraz yesterday & found 1,499 human beings crammed into cages, living in the smell of urine, eating food prepared nearly 2 weeks ago 🧵

The cost of climate inaction is increasing. So much so that it will soon exceed the cost of actions we should have taken, such as carbon pricing. Obviously there's no stopping this in the short term. The pain in the pocketbook will worsen, livelihods hit. finance.yahoo.com/economy/policy…

“Maybe you should be afraid of what I know.” A deported model is publicly warning Melania Trump—and it traces back to elite circles and Epstein-era ties. @miaminewtimes miaminewtimes.com/news/deported-…

Absurd and inhuman violence is spreading ferociously through the sacred places of the Christian East, profaned by the blasphemy of war and the brutality of business, with no regard for people’s lives, which are considered at most collateral damage of self-interest. But no gain can be worth the life of the weakest, children, or families. No cause can justify the shedding of innocent blood.

Two extraordinary women. A shared commitment to justice, dignity, and the power of nonviolence. On your 96th birthday, we honor you, Dolores Huerta, and the legacy you continue to shape. I am grateful for the ways your life’s work has uplifted workers, strengthened communities, and inspired generations. #DoloresHuerta #CorettaScottKing #MLK #BelovedCommunity

Cruel. Despicable. Hateful.👇

NEWWWW >> Trump appeared to have financial motive in taking classified records, a Jack Smith memo reviewed by @MSNOWNews shows. By early 2023, FBI found several records Trump took related to his business interests. Me and @JaxAlemany ms.now/news/trump-cla…

Jaw-dropping: The U.S. and Ecuador said they had cooperated to blow up a cocaine trafficking operation. Our reporters visited and found it was just a dairy farm, whose residents were brutalized by Ecuadorian soldiers acting on Pentagon intelligence. nytimes.com/2026/03/24/wor…

NEW: For the first time, ProPublica has been able to quantify how many U.S. citizen children have been directly affected by Trump’s immigration crackdown: more than 11,000 kids had a parent detained — and that’s an undercount. 1/ 🧵 propublica.org/article/trump-…

@NateM_Tributary Remembering Bob Graham's famous comment about waiting 5 minutes if you don't like what's happening in Florida. Happy to see it still applies.

Florida is Florida and will always defy easy analysis. It’s a massive, remarkably diverse place. Nothing is guaranteed, and anyone who tells you otherwise is lying.

Freedom Park gets its own governance Miami Freedom Park, now rising, is about to get its own community development district to finance, construct and operate its infrastructure and services, at a cost of nearly $130 million over the next four years. miamitodaynews.com/2026/03/25/fre… #MiamiTodayNews #MiamiFreedomPark #MiamiDadeCounty #FreedomPark #MiamiToday

Murkowski said today that under the SAVE Act, a couple in remote part of Alaska would have to take flight to Anchorage at a cost of $2,000, bring/fund/secure documents, spend a day off work, maybe leave kids at home: ie, a huge burden. She also strongly opposes objects to immediate effective date so people can’t plan such trips.

Gov. Ron DeSantis today signed emergency funding for Florida's AIDS Drug Assistance Program to run through June 30. State cuts to the program would have left around 12,000 people without access to life-saving HIV/AIDS medication. tampabay.com/news/florida-p…
