Statement: Congress Increases NOAA Budget
Washington, D.C. – The following statement was issued by Reggie Paros, Senior Manager of Government Relations at Ocean Conservancy, on the passage of the Fiscal Year 2021 (FY21) appropriations package which includes the budget for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA):
“Today, the House and Senate have made much needed investments into our ocean, Great Lakes, and coastlines by passing a strong NOAA budget for the upcoming fiscal year, increasing NOAA’s budget by over $150 million. Specifically we are excited to see increases to Coastal Management Grants, Regional Ocean Partnerships and climate change research.  Ocean Conservancy commends members of the House of Representatives and Senate who voted to increase funding for NOAA so that it can continue to conserve, manage, and protect our coastal marine ecosystems and resources, monitor changes in our ocean and climate, and share assets and knowledge with our coastal communities.
