Great news for Alaska fishermen and our coastal communities! The new Office of Seafood within @USDA is something I’ve been pushing for years. Our fishermen are farmers of the sea and deserve the same access to USDA programs our farmers have. This new office will help make that happen.
Thanks @SecRollins and @howardlutnick for keeping your commitment to me to create this office and @SecretaryBurgum and NEC Director Kevin Hassett for your support for our fishermen in Alaska and across the country!
Alaska applauds the announcement of the @USDA Office of Seafood, an important step to strengthen U.S. seafood competitiveness and expand investment opportunities.
This effort will improve access to capital, markets and federal resources for fishermen and processors across AK.
Public input is open for Opportunity Zones 2.0 in Alaska.
