Lets fish farming researchers get new funding and cover more of their project costs.
This bill would set aside $15 million each year for five years to pay for programs that support fish farming research and education. It would also change rules. This would let universities and research groups get paid back for more of their general operating costs when doing this work. The goal is to help American fish farming compete better.
Today, no specific money is set aside for fish farming programs from the government's budget year 2026 through 2030. Also, groups cannot easily get back their general operating costs for these projects. If this bill passes, $15 million would be set aside each year for five years for these programs. Groups would then be able to recover their general operating costs. This would take effect immediately if signed into law.
