WASHINGTON, DC – President Donald Trump today signed into law the Save Our Seas Act 2.0 (S. 1982), a comprehensive, bipartisan effort to address the challenge of plastic debris in the world’s oceans.

In addition to an important step forward in reducing marine plastic debris, Save Our Seas 2.0 is an example of what can be achieved when policymakers work across the partisan divide in an open and inclusive legislative process.
