Touring Hurricane Ian Damage In Southwest Florida With The Coast Guard

This week, I joined the U.S. Coast Guard in Southwest Florida to tour the extensive damage following Hurricane Ian. As the lead Republican on the subcommittee that oversees FEMA, we're continuing to ensure Floridians have the support they need to build back stronger. For information on disaster assistance across the state, visit our website at cammack.house.gov.

During the helicopter tour, I went live on Facebook to show the aftermath from above. You can view the footage by clicking the button below.

Preventing Chinese Farmland Acquisitions

This week, I joined colleagues in a letter to the USDA, DoD, and U.S. Treasury expressing our concerns regarding China's acquisitions of U.S. farmland. For a while now, Chinese Communist Party-affiliated corporations have purchased land dangerously close to sensitive U.S. military installations. Not only does this undermine our national security and integrity, but it endangers our dominance, global readiness, and competition with China. This is of great concern and is something our team is watching closely.

Supporting National Wildlife Refuge Week

This week, we’re recognizing National Wildlife Refuge Week! National wildlife refuges provide a variety of activities and are great places for folks to connect with nature. Florida is proud to be home to 29 throughout the state, and in fact, the nation’s wildlife refuge system was born in Florida in 1903!

Visiting The Florida Horse Park In Marion County

Earlier this week, I visited the Florida Horse Park in Marion County where the Marion County Sheriff's Office and several state and local agencies are readying supplies, equipment, and materials for Hurricane Ian recovery. The outpouring of support for our neighbors in southwest Florida has been amazing and we're equipped to continue supporting Floridians whenever they need help.

Thank you to all of the amazing volunteers who are working hard to stage the important resources so desperately needed in rebuilding efforts.
