As wild salmon runs decline, the Biden administration this week committed $240 million for tribal nations to update hatcheries that have become critical to raising Pacific salmon and steelhead and meeting treaty obligations, especially amid a changing climate.

Today, 14 salmon and steelhead populations in Washington are listed as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act.
