BIG: With my latest budget, our administration has invested a record $1 BILLION to restore the Chesapeake Bay.

Virginia is making major clean water investments in the Chesapeake Bay. We've now completed the largest oyster restoration project in the country, in the Piankatank and Great Wicomico Rivers. I grew up on the water, and it's great to see all this hard work paying off!

This morning we celebrated Virginia's 66th Natural Area Preserve. We've conserved more than 120,000 acres over four years. Conserving land protects our ecosystems, enhances water quality, and preserves Virginia's scenic landscape for future generations.
