Harry knows the Chesapeake Bay is a national treasure and that it holds a special place in Marylanders’ hearts. Trump’s policies and budget proposals have continued to cut funding for environmental services, including tens of millions of dollars towards restoration of the Chesapeake Bay, while also shaving away protections for our State’s natural resources. Harry will work in Congress to:

• Protect Maryland’s natural resources and federal funding.
• Support Senator Van Hollen and former Congressman Sarbanes’s legislation to designate a unified Chesapeake National Recreation Area as part of the National Park System.
• Fund clean-up and protection efforts for the Chesapeake Bay.
• Improve access to the Bay for all Maryland residents.
• Support Maryland’s diverse marine economy and workers.
