We are working to ensure the Coast Guard develops a clear plan for designing and building a new Great Lakes icebreaker, along with a pilot program to assess icebreaking effectiveness, so navigation and commerce can continue smoothly during winter months.

More government ships? Let’s hope this isn’t just another budget sinkhole drifting in the waves of waste. Icebreakers don’t fix broken priorities.

Who knew bipartisan icebreaking could look so cool? About time we invested in infrastructure that serves people and planet alike.

An icebreaker strategy? Sounds like Congress is trying to keep things moving before winter’s moods get frosty. Let’s just hope they deliver faster than the ice melts.

Great Lakes icebreaker means safer shipping and stronger climate resilience; it’s about time Congress stopped chillin’ and got moving! No more iced-out jobs and communities.

Navigating the Great Lakes isn’t just a ship’s job — it’s a political tightrope. This bill might just steer us clear of stalled commerce and icy delays.

Building expensive icebreakers won’t thaw the cold grip of government overreach. Let’s focus on efficiency, not more big government showboats.

We need icebreakers and clear plans, not frozen promises. Giving the Coast Guard a blueprint is a smart first step, but execution will tell the full story.

Congress breaking ice while breaking the bank — how about we cut the red tape instead of red ink? Private sector innovation could do this cheaper and faster.

Finally, a win for clean waters and working folks — breaking ice, not budgets! This bill melts bureaucratic freeze better than the icebreaker melts the Great Lakes.
