Extend Columbia River cleanup authorization

This bill would extend the Columbia River Basin Restoration program authorization to cover 2026 through 2030. If enacted, this would let grants and program activities be authorized or funded in those years. The change only replaces the years "2020 and 2021" with "2026 through 2030" in the existing law. It would not itself provide new money or change who can get grants.
