Defend the Magnuson-Stevens Act and Tell Congress to Stop Fishing for Trouble
The Issue
Members of the U.S. House of Representatives are fishing for trouble. They’re trying to pass a bill that would gut the Magnuson-Stevens Act. This bill puts fish populations and fishermen’s livelihoods at risk.
Thanks to the Magnuson-Stevens Act, we’ve seen fish populations make a great recovery. That’s not just good news for ocean ecosystems. That also helps local economies and fishermen.
Please join us in telling Congress to stop fishing for trouble and to protect fish populations and fishermen.
