Hi, this is Congressman █████████████████. I'm calling from ███████████████ to invite you to a live telephone town hall I'm holding right now. I'll provide updates on where things stand here in ██████████, the results we're delivering back home, and most importantly, I want to hear directly from you. Just stay in the line to be connected. If you're unable to stay on tonight's call or just want to get in touch with me, please call my office at ████████████ or leave a voicemail or visit ██████████████████████ we will get back to you in the coming days. There are also a recording of tonight's town hall on my Facebook page. Rep. █████████████████ Please hold while we connect you to your Access Live event. This Access Live event is currently in progress. Please note that this call may be monitored, recorded or rebroadcast. Office on constituent work that would be ████████████ if you have a VA issue and you feel like you're not getting the service you deserve considering your service to the country again, thanks for the question and we look forward to our next one. Our next question from our pre call polling data is from █████████████. He says what is being done to stop the cities and businesses and residents from dumping contaminants into our has anyone looked at removing the lock system in ██████████████ to allow the lagoon to recover? Well, protecting the Indian River Lagoon is one of my key issues that I talked about for the last few years. I wanted to make sure we build on the good work done by the county and of course we can't forget that we actually are taxing ourselves in order to clean up the lagoon. That said, I was able to secure a record $██ million last year to improve water quality and reduce pollution in the lagoon. This is about long term restoration, not temporary results. And we know that when the lagoon is healthy, not only it support jobs and tourism but it also keeps the value of our homes. And so this is one of my top priorities. I'm a member of what's called the Estuary Caucus in order to advance restoration and we're putting more money into actual shovel ready projects as opposed to some of the research that has been spent in the past. This is part of our record level federal investment in the lagoon and we're coordinating with not only our local governments but also state governments as well. As many of you know I served in the State senate and I have great familiarity with those programs and so we're making sure that everyone has the opportunity to help out the lagoon and coordinate it in such a way. And one of the real challenges we face is that in the northern part of lagoon, it's very static waterway, meaning there's not like they have down in █████████ where there's an inlet. So there's been a lot of discussion of how we might create a better way in which to get that water flow going. And it's something we're working closely with many different environmental groups to make that happen. Our next question is from ███████████. When are we going to see relief at grocery stores, gas pumps, and health insurance? I'm a first responder with three kids and obviously don't make much as it is. I'm in a constant struggle and was really hoping this administration would be different. Well, I try to control what I can control. And one of the things that we wanted to make a promise to you, ████, was the idea that we wanted to keep the promises we made back in ████, if you remember, of course, we had massive inflation just a few years ago. It got as high as 9%. And so we wanted to help persons who were hardest hit by inflation. Those are people who earned overtime and, of course, worked a lifetime in order to get Social Security benefits. And so, as you know, in the big tax bill we passed in July, we cut taxes on overtime, tips, and for most people on Social Security, in fact, each Social Security recipient gets a $███████ deduction in order to help make ends meet. As far as gasoline is concerned and those prices, we've been making remarkable progress in the simple idea that we are producing more gasoline than we did in the past. We are opening up those opportunities around ███████. And as you know, we also have now made inroads.
