Larsen and Murray lead Washington Democrats urging restoration of salmon recovery funding, citing impact on habitat projects.
Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Representative Rick Larsen and Senator Patty Murray, leading a group of Washington Democrats, have urged Interior Secretary Doug Burgum to restore funding for Regional Fisheries Enhancement Groups (RFEGs), which was recently cut by the Trump administration. The eliminated $1.285 million in funding is seen as crucial for salmon recovery and habitat restoration projects.
The Democrats assert that this funding is vital for community-driven conservation efforts and local economic development, warning that without it, numerous habitat restoration projects may be delayed or abandoned. The bicameral group has requested to reverse the funding cut and seeks answers regarding the decision's implications.
"This widely supported program is a critical component of community-driven salmon recovery efforts," the delegation expressed in their letter to Burgum, highlighting the long-standing partnerships between various stakeholders that have benefited from RFEG funding.
