Governor Ron DeSantis appoints Alexis A. Lambert Secretary of the Department of Environmental Protection
Press release from the Office of Governor Ron DeSantis
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Today, Governor Ron DeSantis announced the appointment of Alexis A. Lambert as Secretary of the Department of Environmental Protection.
Alexis A. Lambert
Alexis A. Lambert currently serves as Chief of Staff of the Division of Bond Finance, a position she has held since 2018. While at the division, Lambert has supported the Governor’s debt reduction strategy, which has resulted in the state reducing over a quarter of its outstanding debt accumulated since statehood.
Prior to joining the division, Lambert served as Chief of Staff of the Florida Department of Health (DOH) where she oversaw the management of all Department activities and its 15,000 employees and served as the liaison to DEP. Previously, she served as Director of Communications for State Chief Financial Officer Jeff Atwater and in leadership roles within the Departments of Children and Families, Business and Professional Regulation, and Community Affairs. A Tallahassee native and alum of Mercer University, Lambert also serves as a board member of Space Florida and the State Emergency Response Commission.
Didn’t realize Ronnie still had a DEP dept. Didn’t see anything that qualifies her for the position except loyalty to the gov.
Desantis is only following the new national policy by our Great new President Donald J. Trump. It was explained in a news article headline yesterday:
“Donald Trump Jr. Says He Plans to Staff Dad’s Administration With Yes Men”
Competence and qualifications are OUT faster than a deported Latino. Loyalty is IN and all that counts. The entire country will be run by LOYAL people who, like me, will take this Oath Jan 20:
“I swear to you, Donald Trump, as Führer and President of the Republic of the United States of America, that I will be loyal and brave. I pledge obedience unto death to you and those you appoint to lead. So help me God.”
Anyone who will not take the Oath will be deported or sent to a concentration camp. Pack your bags, liberals and Dems.
really creepy and soooo uniting
Our new economic leader Elon Musk has warned us the economy will get worse before it gets better. I believe him. You should too.
UN agenda has infiltrated local government and she’s gonna make sure that big lie Commie totalitarian climate change BS
(Great Reset) won’t further ruin Florida like Hanrahan’s disastrous biomass plant ruined GRU….she’s gonna make Florida great again‼️
Desantis will save Florida and Trump will save our great nation by defunding the WHO & UN…
No great reset for Florida or the United States of America with Desantis & Trump!
It’s a great day for America!🇺🇸
I agree with Mr. Pink. Trump will defund NOAA. Lack of accurate hurricane predictions will not bother true conservatives in Florida. They can just pull themselves up out of the water by their wet bootstraps.
Completely unqualified for the job, unless the job is giving back rubs to developers, mining execs, concrete plant owners, and logging company execs. Chief rubber stamper position is already filled.
The GOP pretending they care about the environment – yes, I know some it’s voters actually do – is belied by the long pattern of knee capping our water management districts, eliminating review of developments of regional impact, and filling environmental review agencies with business people. That’s a charade and this continues it.
must push paper for the government
Another unqualified candidate appointed by our corrupt governor.
Way to unify, Jane.
Surprised that the slow learners on the board haven’t put two and two together to figure out that she’s likely been appointed to reduce waste and increase efficiency in the program.
But it’s easier to just hate on her and keep shoveling tax money into the bottomless pit, I guess.
But you have it backwards. The goal is to allow corporations to pollute faster. An efficient DEP is one who cracks down on polluters. The goal is to make the most inefficient DEP possible that does nothing. Alex is the girl for the job!
Nice opinion. Any facts to share?
