Florida Round Table - Alan Grayson
Stop New Oil And Gas Drilling Off America's Shores!
Did you know that after the 2010 BP Deepwater Horizon spill, which dumped more than 130 million
gallons of toxic crude oil into the
Gulf of Mexico, only eight percent
of that oil was ever cleaned up? Yet the Obama Administration just proposed a disastrous five-year plan that would open up vast portions of the Arctic and the Atlantic coast from Virginia to Georgia to dangerous new offshore oil and gas drilling. here

Florida Agriculture Secretary Adam Putnam
is aiming to wrest control of Florida water quality from the (absurdly, horribly) weak Florida Department of Environmental Protection, in which case taxpayers will never, ever have a "fair and balanced" accounting of the costs of pollution and why, exactly, the polluters aren't being held accountable to clean up their pollution. This development is unfolding right now in Tallahassee. It is being portrayed as a conflict between the ambitious Putnam and Gov. Rick Scott. In reality, these two are working
hand-in-glove. here
