Actions

Our oceans and coasts are the lifeblood of American communities from the Arctic to the Gulf of Mexico, creating economic opportunity and generating prosperity. This includes the Great Lakes, a resource sometimes referred to as America’s “fourth seacoast.” The oceans and Great Lakes economy supports over 3 million jobs across a wide-range of industries.

To maintain the ecological and economic productivity of our oceans, coasts, and Great Lakes, the Trump Administration and Congress should take these actions:

  • Build strong coasts and economies
  • Support regional collaboration
  • Be an international leader
  • Invest in science and research
  • Prioritize U.S. interests in the Arctic
  • Support healthy economies and ecosystems
  • Foster sustainable fisheries
  • Facilitate responsible offshore energy
  • Support an ocean investment fund
