Founded in 1994, the Everglades Trust’s mission is to advocate for the restoration and protection of America’s Everglades using sound science and research.
The Everglades Trust is proud to endorse Congresswoman @DWStweets, co-chair of the Congressional Everglades Caucus, for election to Florida Congressional District 20.
The Everglades Trust is proud to endorse Congressman @MarioDB, co-founder and co-chair of the Congressional Everglades Caucus, for reelection to Florida Congressional District 26.
We’re proud to endorse @ByronDonalds. He’s the only candidate who can maintain @GovRonDeSantis’ momentum on #EvergladesRestoration. Byron helped deliver a fair, balanced #LakeO schedule, has consistently supported full funding and has the relationships to keep restoration moving.
Protecting South Florida’s water is protecting our home.
That is why I’ve brought millions of dollars back to our community to clean up Biscayne Bay, protect the Everglades, and restore our coral reefs.
We’ve made progress, and with your support, I’ll keep fighting to protect the waters that make South Florida paradise.
I helped secure $2 billion to accelerate Everglades restoration. The 17,000-acre EAA Reservoir will store 78+ billion gallons, deliver up to 470 billion gallons of clean water a year, and finish in 2029 instead of 2034.
Cleaner water sooner for the Treasure Coast. https://t.co/T4yzkppam2

Thank you to the entire @epsummerschool team for your hospitality and for hosting a very informative program on environmental issues in Florida. 👏
.@SFWMD and @USACEHQ today signed a unique agreement to advance the final #EAAReservoir component and the Blue Shanty Flow Way. The state will now be able to advance these projects to align with the reservoir’s 2029 completion and be ready to help send more water south.
With the signing of this budget, @GovRonDeSantis has secured nearly $9.5B for environmental efforts during his two terms. Read Everglades Trust CEO @AnnaHoltUpton’s full statement below.

Today, @GovRonDeSantis awarded #Everglades advocates George Barley (posthumously), Mary Barley, Paul Tudor Jones II, and Nathaniel Reed (posthumously) with the Governor’s Medal of Freedom, the highest honor in the state.
These recipients have played an important role in getting us to where we are today – the closest we’ve ever been to restoring the #Everglades – and it is fitting that we recognize their significant contributions during the year we celebrate @America250.
