Though this spending bill is far from perfect it includes many priorities and resources that will strengthen Ohio’s economy, bolster our Great Lakes Heartland and provides $3.2 billion in long-awaited relief for the opioid crisis. kaptur.house.gov/media-center/p…
From full funding for the #GLRI, to fighting algal blooms and Asian carp, to path-breaking clean energy and advanced manufacturing research, this budget takes a step forward. Congress is again living up to its promises to invest in the American people.
Rest assured our fight is not over, and I’ll be working as a Senior Member @AppropsDems to protect these investments. This compromise legislation is a constructive step to moving our country forward.

Though we welcome support from @EPA to combat harmful algal blooms, this plan does not reflect the urgency or accountability we need in this fight.

My full statement w/ @RepDebDingell: kaptur.house.gov/media-center/p… #GreatLakes
This first step must be followed by actions on the state and federal level to meet the plan’s reduction targets.

Congress has provided one important tool for achieving these goals by funding the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative. Even still, @POTUS plans to cut #GLRI by 90%.
We cannot settle for the US @EPA having its budget slashed and hands tied leaving the #GreatLakes and the millions of Americans who rely on them for water and commerce in the lurch.
