Today, Congressman Bill Huizenga (MI-02), Republican Co-Chair of the Great Lakes Task Force, released the following statement after the EPA announced a "first-of-its-kind" Great Lakes trash clean up initiative:

"This announcement by the EPA demonstrates how the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative can play an even greater role in protecting and preserving the Great Lakes," said Congressman Huizenga. "This program will help get plastic and other garbage out of the Great Lakes by cleaning up harbors, rivers, and beaches.
