S. 759

Modernizing Access to Our Public Oceans Act

Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee · Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)

14 September 2026 | Passed House (voice vote)

What's next: Presidential review (±10 days)

Summary: The bill would direct the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to create standardized, publicly available maps and data about where people can fish, boat, and enjoy other recreational activities in federal ocean waters. Within four years, NOAA would need to publish a website showing fishing restrictions, vessel use limitations, protected marine areas, and navigation information for U.S. waters, developed in consultation with state and local governments, tribes, and other stakeholders.
