Rep. Steube Urges Army Corps of Engineers to Fund Venice Jetty Repairs in FY27 Work Plan

WASHINGTON-Today, Representative Greg Steube (R-Fla.) sent a letter to Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works Adam Telle urging the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to allocate sufficient federal funding in the FY27 Work Plan to repair and restore the south jetty in Venice, Florida. The jetty sustained catastrophic damage during the 2024 hurricane season and serves as one of the only access points to the Gulf of America for several miles in each direction, making its repair critical to navigation, public safety, and the regional economy.
