The Great Lakes Restoration Initiative is the most important program supporting on-the-ground restoration of our Great Lakes. It has a long record of success cleaning up toxic hot spots, reducing runoff pollution, protecting native fisheries, controlling invasive species, and restoring habitat for fish and other wildlife.
But the GLRI's authorization expired at the end of September. Without reauthorization, this vital program faces an uncertain future, putting decades of progress and the health, prosperity, and resilience of Great Lakes communities at risk.
Both the U.S. House and Senate have passed versions of reauthorization. Tell your U.S. Representative to resolve the differences, bring a final bill to a vote, and pass GLRI reauthorization before the end of this Congress.
