Multi-State Compact

A Multi-State Compact is an agreement between two or more states in the U.S. to work together on specific issues. These compacts can cover various areas, such as resource management, environmental protection, or professional licensing. By joining forces, states can address challenges that cross state lines, share resources, and create common regulations or standards. Multi-State Compacts are legally binding and often require approval from the U.S. Congress. They help states collaborate effectively, ensuring that laws and policies are consistent and beneficial across the involved states.
