Congressman Brown is Primary Co-Sponsor of Clean Beaches Resolution 

 

Washington, Feb 26 -   Congressman Henry E. Brown, Jr. (R-SC) joined with Congressman Frank Pallone (D-NJ) to introduce a resolution supporting the goals and ideals of National Clean Beaches Week and recognizing the considerable value of American beaches and their role in American culture.

“This resolution is an excellent opportunity to highlight the importance of our coastal resources and their impact on our overall economy and quality of life,” Brown said. “As Co-Chair of the Congressional Coastal Caucus and the Congressional Shellfish Caucus, I am committed to heightening awareness of the value of our beaches and the fragile coastal ecosystems.”

House Resolution 186 has been referred to the Committee on Natural Resources where Brown is Ranking Republican Member of the Fisheries, Wildlife and Oceans Subcommittee.

National Clean Beaches Week will be observed from June 29th to July 5th. For more information, visit the Clean Beaches Council’s website at www.cleanbeaches.org.
