Bipartisan bill to extend regional ocean partnerships, supporting coastal resilience, marine resources, and maritime economies.

Investivoq AI Summary

Lawmakers propose reauthorizing ocean partnerships: Rep. Mike Ezell of Mississippi and Rep. Suzanne Bonamici of Oregon introduced the bipartisan Regional Ocean Partnerships Reauthorization Act. The bill would extend federal support for regional cooperation on coastal resilience, marine resources, ocean research, and maritime economic development.

Bill details and stated goals: The measure would continue the program through fiscal year 2031, authorize about $10.6 million in FY2028 with increases afterward, and require an additional report to Congress after five years. It would also bar partnership funds from being used to develop regulatory proposals or compliance programs.

Lawmakers' comments: Ezell said the partnerships help coastal states and local stakeholders address challenges without "unnecessary federal regulations." Bonamici said the groups bring together state, tribal, local, and federal leaders to tackle shared problems and help coastal communities plan for a more resilient future.
