Regional Great Lakes Partnership Act of 2026

The Regional Great Lakes Partnership Act of 2026 officially designates the Great Lakes Commission as a formal Regional Great Lakes Partnership. This change recognizes the commission, which is made up of representatives from eight states, as a key entity for coordinating regional efforts. The bill achieves this by adding a specific provision to existing federal law that acknowledges the commission's role. No new funding or operational changes are introduced; the act serves primarily to clarify the commission's official status within the federal framework.
