Argument has now been set on Florida's and the Federal Government's challenge to our victory to protect Florida wetlands and the people and imperiled species that rely upon them. @Earthjustice will be there fighting.
I'll be presenting on a panel discussing federal wetlands permitting under the Clean Water Act at the ABA SEER Spring 2025 next week in Philly. If you're attending, and want to learn all about it, please consider attending. https://t.co/V56xcm90S1 @ABAEnvLaw
Excited to follow this suit. Sugar burning is incredibly harmful to communities and our climate: "Plaintiffs say Florida Crystals’ farming method that blights minority neighborhoods belies its climate-friendly claims." https://t.co/GDjIqhDIm6
It was an honor to receive the Conservationist of the Year award from the Everglades Coalition along with my team for our work successfully challenging—and overturning—Florida's illegal takeover of federal wetlands permitting. https://t.co/nBVR1aBUmD
Destructive industries exploit Sackett to pollute for profit, but public advocacy is powerful. Our voices can drive legislative change and restore crucial water protections. Let's keep fighting for our right to clean water. https://t.co/6ef9BzN0rm
Post-Sackett, 118 million acres of wetlands are at risk. Yet, public support for water protections is overwhelming. 94% believe in safeguarding our lakes and rivers. Together, we can push for stronger laws. https://t.co/8fgcTQFAdT
A year ago this week, the Supreme Court removed protections for 60% of the wetlands the country has left. As we reflect on the damage of Sackett v. EPA, here’s how advocates are fighting state by state to restore protections for our wetlands and waters. https://t.co/n9HQ3solLb
With @Earthjustice's victory in Federal court, the Florida panther is back under the full protection of the Endangered Species Act. https://t.co/XfAaxKdPi0
Our South #Florida sea creatures, including endangered sawfish, are suffering and dying because of lax regulation to stem pollution in our waters, my @earthjustice colleague, attorney Alisa Coe, writes in @TB_Times https://t.co/whJIymA3QW
And the fight continues as we defend our win for species. Florida has appealed, and we've fought back two attempts by the State to take back wetlands permitting while the appeal moves forward. #neverrest
Our relentless legal advocacy has led to a huge win that helps protect Florida wetlands-- including the last habitat of the critically endangered Florida panther, which is threatened by major development projects. https://t.co/aH5hZMcNFJ

The EPA and the US Fish and Wildlife Service violated the Endangered Species Act when the Trump administration turned over a federal wetlands dredge-and-fill permitting program to the state of Florida, a federal judge ruled. https://t.co/xCAMuddUJs
VICTORY for Florida’s wetlands! 🏆
Last week, a federal court ruled in favor of @sierraclubfl and its partners by determining that the EPA & USFWS violated federal law when they greenlit FL's takeover of the Clean Water Act wetlands permitting program.

Major victory for Florida's #wildlife! Court rules EPA, Florida, and those seeking permits to impact #wetlands must use #EndangeredSpeciesAct provisions to ensure that threatened and endangered species are protected in #CleanWaterAct permitting.
