John Sarbanes: “If the FCC moves ahead with its net neutrality repeal, the consequences will be severe.”

The health of the Chesapeake Bay and its watershed can only continue to improve through robust Federal, state, and local partnerships.

The goal was not to federalize elections across the country; the goal was to set some uniform standards.

This bill takes important steps to support the ongoing restoration of the Chesapeake Bay by reauthorizing NOAA's Chesapeake Bay Office and authorizing the agency's long-running Bay Watershed Education and Training, or B-WET Grant program.

I hope that today's hearing is the first step in continuing that legacy of strong bipartisan support for the Chesapeake Bay in this Congress.
