The Congressional Delaware River Watershed Caucus is a great partner, & DU looks forward to working with @RepBrianFitz & @RepSherrill to advance our bipartisan conservation efforts in the watershed. #DuckPolicy
For the past several years, I’ve been proud to lead the Congressional Delaware River Watershed Caucus with a focus on: ✅ Securing critical investments ✅ Advancing innovative conservation efforts ✅ Protecting one of our nation’s most invaluable natural resources. I’m thrilled to welcome my friend and neighbor across the river, @RepSherrill, as Co-Chair this Congress. Together, we will continue working to ensure our water is clean, our regional economy keeps growing, and the entire Delaware River Watershed thrives for generations to come.
