This bill amends the Arctic Research Policy Act of 1984 to strengthen federal Arctic research coordination and governance. It expands the Arctic Research Commission from seven to eight members (adding a non-voting Alaska governor appointee), establishes annual joint meetings between the Commission and the Interagency Arctic Research Policy Committee, and requires development of a joint research infrastructure plan with unified budgeting. The bill also adds new findings emphasizing climate change impacts on the Arctic region, authorizes annual excellence awards for Arctic researchers (up to $10,000 each), and adds several agencies to the Interagency Committee including the Department of Agriculture, Marine Mammal Commission, Smithsonian Institution, and Denali Commission.
