There is one thing we can all do. When Congressman Whitfield's bill comes up for a vote, your Congressperson and mine will be voting on it. That's why I mentioned that I'm calling John Yarmuth. He's my Congressman, and I'm going to encourage him to vote against it. If enough Congresspeople (Congresspersons?) get enough calls, emails, etc., opposed to the bill, then hopefully it will be voted down. It really is a bad bill, and not just for fishermen. Oh, and BTW, the bill in question is H.R.6087.

Not sure who your Representative is? Go to this web site, fill in your info, and find out!
