Bipartisan Oceans Caucus

On September 13, 2011, Senator Chris Coons joined a bipartisan group of Senators to participate in a press conference to announce the Senate Oceans Caucus, which took place in U.S. Capitol, Washington, DC. The Oceans Caucus will work to increase awareness and find common ground in responding to issues facing the oceans and coasts, which support millions of jobs, generate energy, bring in tourism, and host recreation. Delawareans, did you know our beach tourism contributes over $665,000,000 to the state’s economy each year?
