Dear Lance,
We have a unique opportunity to sink only the second diveable aircraft carrier in the world in the waters off Miami. But, we need your help. The Florida Legislature is meeting right now on the general issue of economic development, and will be in session through Thursday of this week. Florida divers and PADI members who would like to see this incredible dive site happen need to contact their legislators and urge them to support the resolution by Wednesday. We're sorry for the short notice, but just learned about this today. We've included a sample letter below for you to email to your legislators. If you aren't sure about your Representative or Senate member or don't have their contact information, the best source to get information on members of the Florida House of Representatives is to look at www.myfloridahouse.com, and for the Florida Senate, www.flsenate.gov. Their email addresses are included with their contact information.
Thank you for your time,
Bob Coleman

Dear Florida Legislator:
Florida scuba divers support the resolution sponsored by the Miami-Dade County legislative delegation at this week's economic development special session. The resolution would organize an advisory council to the Fish and Wildlife Commission for the placement of U.S. Navy vessels as artificial reefs in Florida. The resolution would require that the FWC utilize criteria which emphasizes economic development, the generation of the maximum projected economic and other beneficial impacts to the state of Florida, and accessibility to the reef by Florida residents and tourists, when making a decision on the placement of these Navy vessels as artificial reefs.
Sincerely,
