The Florida House of Representatives has introduced House Resolution HR 8065, which designates August 9, 2025, as "Bob Graham Day" in the state of Florida. This resolution honors Daniel Robert "Bob" Graham, who was born on November 9, 1936, and has had a significant impact on Florida's political landscape. Graham served as Florida's 38th Governor from 1978 to 1987, during which he implemented several key initiatives, including the Conservation and Recreation Act, the Save Our Rivers program, and the Save Our Everglades program. His efforts in environmental conservation and public service have left a lasting legacy in the state.

In addition to his gubernatorial achievements, Bob Graham served in the U.S. Senate, where he was recognized for his expertise in domestic and foreign policy, particularly in areas such as Everglades restoration and national security. He has continued to contribute to public service through the establishment of the Bob Graham Center for Public Service at the University of Florida and the Florida Conservation Coalition. The resolution acknowledges Graham's extensive career in public office and his dedication to environmental preservation, economic opportunity, and civil rights, solidifying his status as one of Florida's most accomplished public figures.
