Learn about the Congressional Boating Caucus

The Congressional Boating Caucus is an informal, bipartisan group of U.S. Senators and Representatives formed by NMMA in 1989 to advocate the interests of the recreational boating industry. The Caucus seeks to improve the industry’s economic conditions, protect the environment, address boating safety and create international trade opportunities. NMMA recruits the Congressional Boating Caucus’ members.

There are four Caucus co-chairs: one Democrat and one Republican from both the Senate and the House; their staff manage the Boating Caucus activities.
