This resolution recognizes World Oceans Day on June 8 and celebrates America's maritime heritage, ocean leadership, and coastal communities. The measure honors the contributions of fishermen, mariners, military personnel, scientists, and port workers to the nation's economy and security, while acknowledging that the ocean economy generates trillions of dollars annually and supports millions of American jobs. The resolution marks two significant anniversaries in 2026: the 50th anniversary of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, which established America's exclusive economic zone and created one of the world's most successful fisheries management systems, and the 20th anniversary of the Marine Debris Program. The measure also affirms Congress's commitment to ocean exploration, scientific discovery, and responsible stewardship of ocean resources for future generations. As a resolution, it expresses the sense of the House but does not authorize spending or create new law.
