Statement by Senate Committee on Agriculture Chairman Denise Grimsley
“Last week I wrote to our congressional delegation to reassure them that their efforts to bring disaster relief to Florida farmers were not in vain. Today, I want thank them for their success. Were it not for leaders like Tom Rooney, Dennis Ross, Vern Buchanan, Mario Diaz-Balart, Neal Dunn, Carlos Curbelo, Marco Rubio and so many more, we would have scarcely seen results. The measure President Trump signed today is also a reminder that his and Secretary Perdue’s commitment to Florida following Irma has been fully confirmed.”

“I am honored to support our law enforcement this with ‘Back-the-Blue’ legislation. Our law enforcement officers provide valuable services to our community, all while keeping us safe,” said Senator Stargel. “This proposal will give them the resources they need to continue their good work.”
“Our law enforcement officers need all of the support we can provide them,” said Senator Grimsley. “I can’t think of a better way to ‘Back the Blue’ than by giving them the resources they need to keep us safe.”
