Thank you to everyone who participated in Great Lakes Day (there's too many organizations to name!), our state leads who organized their delegations, and the members of Congress and other government officials that we were able to meet with. #GreatLakes #HealthyLakes #CleanWater #GreatLakesDay
Wishing everyone a happy #GreatLakesDay!
Great Lakes Day began in 1986 as an initiative to bring together members of Congress, states represented by the Great Lakes Commission, labor unions and environmental organizations to lobby for Great Lakes interests. Throughout the week, IJC Commissioners emphasized our role as an impartial, science-focused organization that convenes, facilitates, and promotes collaboration in #WaterStewardship.
Next week we'll be in DC for Great Lakes Day! Great Lakes advocates from across the region will be meeting with their members of Congress to advocate for clean water and Great Lakes restoration. #GreatLakesDay #HealthyLakes #GreatLakes #CleanWater
