Plain-English Summary

The federal government would fund research and development programs to create ships and boats that produce zero emissions, as well as help convert existing vessels to use cleaner technologies. This would include building the charging and fueling stations needed to support these zero-emission vessels. The program would affect shipping companies, maritime workers, and communities near ports that currently deal with air pollution from ships.
