HR 292 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A resolution to urge the Governor to take all appropriate actions to support and expedite the Brandon Road Interbasin Project in coordination with the Administration of President Donald J. Trump, including by directing relevant departments to facilitate efficient advancement of the project and recommending action to the House of Representatives.

This House resolution urges the Governor of Michigan to take actions that support and speed up the Brandon Road Interbasin Project, which aims to stop invasive Asian carp from entering the Great Lakes. The bill asks state officials to work closely with the federal government to ensure timely reviews and approvals, and it requests that the House be informed of any additional steps needed to move the project forward. By expediting the construction of underwater barriers, the measure seeks to protect Michigan's economy and environment from potential ecological damage caused by the carp. The resolution does not create new laws but serves as a formal request to state and federal partners to coordinate efforts and avoid further delays.
