Lake Erie on a sunny day with overlay text: Federal Great Lakes program advances through Senate. The Senate has reauthorized the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI), a federal program integral to the health of the Great Lakes and the 30 million people who depend on them for drinking water. 

The legislation now goes to the House for consideration and we look forward to Congress reauthorizing this bill before the end of the year.

Long before Trump’s tariff war and attempts to change the name of Lake Ontario, Canada and the U.S. made an agreement to clean up the most polluted sites on the Great Lakes. Just recently, Nipigon Bay became one of the success stories.
