Sunburn â The morning read of whatâs hot in Florida politics â 6.3.21
Good Thursday morning.
A top-of-Sunburn birthday shoutout to my brother from another mother,Â
Reggie Cardozo. Florida and D.C. politics know Reggie as a former Obama White House staffer and a top-flight political strategist, but I know him as a dedicated husband to
Stephanie, father to
Fallon, and
Sutton James, and a trusted friend to many. He’s also my boat buddy, a fellow connoisseur of Bloody Marys and dirty martinis, and just funny as hell.
Happy birthday, brother.

A group of lawmakers and environmentalist organizations is urging change in the way the feds manage the levels of Lake Okeechobee. This is an important coalition representing our peninsula of Florida that are just demanding the (U.S. Army) Corps of Engineers make responsible change in their rewrite of the Lake Okeechobee System Operating Manual.
Congressmen Brian Mast and Byron Donalds have sent a letter to the Army Corps, asking that the agency select a water release schedule known as Alternative CC, which keeps toxic discharges from the lake into rivers on the east and west coast of the state, and instead sends water to the south into the Everglades.
