This week Ryan & Ryan do a recap on week one where phosphate lands and farm product bills advanced in committee. They also look ahead to the disastrous HB 565 which removes single use container protections for the Rainbow, Weeki Wachee, and Ichetuknee Rivers. We wrap things up with dueling rule bills and the positive note of the week.
To help counter HB 565 you can email the legislators who are considering it by using the Florida Springs Council Action Alert: (you can sign up for text alerts there as well) Respond by Monday 3/10/2025
