"Democrats are deploying climate arguments against Republican Rick Scott in the state’s contentious Senate race."
"Florida Sen. Rick Scott has been everywhere in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene — on the ground surveying the storm’s wreckage and on the airwaves calling for a new infusion of federal disaster relief funding.
But when it comes to confronting climate change and its role in exacerbating the extreme weather causing irreversible damage to his state, Scott’s critics say the Republican lawmaker is nowhere to be found.
The dynamic has become a new line of attack from Scott’s opponents in the five weeks before Election Day, as the incumbent first-term senator fights for reelection against former Democratic Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell."
