AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Education Funding & School Restart: Acting CNMI PSS Commissioner Jacqueline Che laid out a 5-day “Promise” plan to restore a full five-day school week by Oct. 1, including turning “Austerity Mondays” into tutoring and wellness hubs while navigating the system’s deepest deficit in 30 years. Utilities Enforcement: The CUC board authorized management to coordinate with local and federal law enforcement on procedures to investigate and prosecute water theft, signaling a tougher push on utility losses. Tourism & Visas: CNMI Del. Kimberlyn King-Hinds’ Marianas Tourism Advancement Act would expand the Guam-CNMI Visa Waiver Program to include the Philippines and other countries, with projections of about 25,000 more arrivals and roughly $11M in visitor spending. Disaster Recovery: A bipartisan bill would extend the FEMA appeal deadline for disaster survivors from 60 to 90 days, aiming to reduce the “race against the clock” for recovery paperwork. Earthquake Update: CNMI reported a 5.1 quake near Saipan (77 km SSW of San Jose Village) with no tsunami information issued. Regional Role: CNMI is seeking to maintain its observer status in the Pacific Islands Forum, with a possible move toward associate membership.
