      16/ It's difficult for us all when our loved ones near the end of their lives. That's why I cosponsored @RepEliotEngel's Palliative Care and Hospice Education and Training Act, to establish training programs, increase awareness, & improve palliative & hospice care research.

      17/ A 911 dispatcher is often the first voice someone hears during a traumatic experience, & their ability to communicate under duress saves lives. That's why I'm supporting @NormaJTorres's 911 SAVES Act, which recently passed as part of the NDAA.https://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/politics/455963-its-time-to-give-9-1-1-professionals-the-respect-they-deserve …

      21/ During my law enforcement career, I saw firsthand the prevalence of crimes committed with guns stolen from FFLs. That’s why I’m an original cosponsor of the Federal Firearms Licensee Protection Act, to increase penalties for firearm theft from licensed gun ranges & stores.

      23/ As sheriff, I never wanted to be the best responder to a mass casualty event; I wanted to prevent it from ever happening. That’s why I cosponsored @RepBrianBabin’s TAPS Act, to help prevent targeted violence by using behavioral threat assessment at the local level.

      25/ In Florida, we face a very real threat in the form of sea-level rise. That’s why I joined the @floodcoalition and support @RepRooney's H.Res. 112, which recognizes the significance of sea-level rise and flooding that place our coastal communities in jeopardy.

      26/ As a proud supporter of the only democracy in the Middle East, I believe that efforts to delegitimize the State of Israel must not be tolerated. That’s why I recently cosponsored @RepSchneider's H.Res. 246, a bipartisan condemnation of the anti-Israel movement known as BDS.

          27/ It is heartbreaking that twenty veterans take their own lives each day. That’s why I introduced H.R. 3103, the Puppies Assisting Wounded Servicemembers (PAWS) Act, which would establish a competitive grant program through the VA for organizations such as @k9sforwarriors.

          28/ As legal immigrants, E2 visa holders embody the American spirit that makes our nation great. That's why I intro’d HR 2124, the E2 Visa Improvement Act, to give these US job creators and their families the stability they need to stay in the USA and contribute to our economy.

          30/ As Floridians, we must protect our coasts from harmful offshore drilling. That’s why I introduced H.R. 3585, the BEACHES in Florida Act, which would prevent offshore drilling in the federal waters off the coast of Florida in the South Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico until 2029.

          To be that ignorant is troubling as our representative in #Congress. #Israel is not the only #democracy in the #MiddleEast. Lebanon happens to be a democracy also and last time I checked it too was in the Middle East. You seriously need to resign. We suffer to many fools as it is
