This bill designates the Great Lakes Commission as a Regional Great Lakes Partnership under federal law. The Great Lakes Commission is an existing interstate organization made up of eight states: Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. The designation appears to formalize the commission's status within the federal regulatory framework established by the 2023 National Defense Authorization Act. The bill contains no specific funding allocations, grant programs, or implementation timelines in the text provided. This is a straightforward administrative measure that recognizes and formally incorporates the Great Lakes Commission into a federal partnership structure related to Great Lakes management and protection.
