Today, we signed an MOU with the historic @BC_Club1886 to advance wildlife conservation efforts across our 193 million acres of national forest land – this means sustaining public access for millions of hunters and anglers! https://t.co/OENUZxL88I

Thrilled to see the ACE Reauthorization Act head to the President’s desk!  This is one of many pieces of legislation delivering big wins for recreational fisheries and conservation.

Great news for our fisheries! The U.S. House has passed H.R. 5103, the FISHES Act, to streamline federal disaster relief for fisheries. Huge step for coastal communities impacted by natural disasters.

A few keys to accelerate renewables:
1. Interconnection queue reform + clearing current queues
2. Proactive long distance transmission expansion
3. Streamline local & state permitting
4. NEPA reform & funding
5. Regional 'pre-siting' processes
6. A stable policy environment.

CSP’s board members at our annual “Center Focus on Washington, where we engaged in critical discussions with policymakers about key issues like NOAA’s proposed VSR rule, recreational infrastructure and the Modern Fish Act.  Engaging with policymakers at this critical juncture is vital for our industry. https://t.co/VA8mTzkzIV #teamworkisdreamwork

RIVER HEALTH UPDATE: For 30 years GE dumped toxic PCBs into the #HudsonRiver — we STILL can’t eat the fish! @gillbrandny is in #AlbanyNY today pushing the @EPA for real recovery. Learn more: https://t.co/0Smpd5IQhy #HealTheHudson #DefendTheValley

[Scenic Hudson @scenichudson]

YOUR VOICE MATTERS: Today @gillibrandny called for the @EPA to TAKE ACTION to #HealTheHudson & determine that the PCB cleanup is “not protective of human health and the environment” — join us in speaking up: https://t.co/0Smpd5IQhy #DefendTheValley

[Riverkeeper @riverkeeper]

Today, @SenGillibrand held a press conference in Albany urging @EPA to render a “not protective” determination in its third 5-yr review of the #HudsonRiver PCBs #Superfund Site cleanup - which hasn't reduced #PCBs in sediment and fish enough to protect human & ecological health

#DidYouKnow? @NOAAFisheries is considering an 11 mph speed limit for ALL boats traveling in an area from Pensacola to south of Tampa plus a prohibition on transits at night! Click to learn more and submit your public comment. Comments are due by July 6‼️ https://t.co/KBwk8sjs6H

[ASA @ASAFishing]

Thanks to @RepBuddyCarter, @Rep_Peltola and all cosponsors for introducing legislation to curb NOAA's vessel speed restriction off the Atlantic coast! This legislation gives NOAA time to resolve the many errors throughout this rule and work with stakeholders on a better solution.

[Center for Sportfishing Policy @sportfishpolicy]

We thank @RepBuddyCarter and @Rep_Peltola for standing up for recreational anglers and boaters on the Atlantic Coast with the bipartisan Protecting Whales, Human Safety, and the Economy Act of 2023.
