U.S. Rep. Gwen Graham continued her district-focused work in Congress this morning with a visit with the Apalachicola Riverkeepers. The event doubled as an announcement of a new legislative initiative to help save the region’s threatened oyster beds, once known as especially fruitful but lately in evident decline.
