Description
Florida's congressional delegation outnumbers Virginia's by more than 2 to 1. That could give the state more leverage when it comes to finding support to move a carrier from Norfolk to Mayport. Now that the Department of Defense has made clear its intent to move a Norfolk-based aircraft carrier to Mayport, Fla., the battle between Florida and Virginia shifts to Congress. // Members of the Hampton Roads congressional delegation have pledged to fight tooth and nail to block any more money for the project. They're taking on Florida's congressional delegation, who outnumber the Virginians by more than two to one and are already claiming victory.
