Rubio: Proposed Disaster Supplemental is Unacceptable for Florida Farmers

Nov 17, 2017 | Comunicados de Prensa

Miami, FL – U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) released the following statement today regarding the Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) proposed disaster supplemental:

“It is unacceptable that this proposed disaster supplemental does not include sufficient and targeted resources for Florida’s farmers, particularly the citrus growers who were virtually wiped out by the storm. Florida citrus is a key part of the state’s heritage and many Americans’ daily lives. I will continue to do everything in my power to ensure our state’s growers get the relief they need to survive the devastation caused by Hurricane Irma.”
