Florida Congressional Reps Back Resolution to Honor the 75th Anniversary of Everglades National Park

Last week, U.S. Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, D-Fla., introduced a resolution honoring the 75th anniversary of Everglades National Park and affirms the U.S. House’s “commitment to the success of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan.”

“The Everglades, America’s largest sub-tropical wilderness, provides millions of Floridians with drinking water while simultaneously serving as a flood barrier and home for a variety of wildlife, including numerous endangered species. The Everglades are also a source of jobs in numerous industries, as well as a source of economic security and recreation,” Cherfilus-McCormick’s office noted.
