The U.S. House of Representatives will vote on the Modern Fish Act (included in H.R. 200) on Tuesday, June 26, 2018. The U.S. Senate is currently considering the Modern Fish Act (S. 1520).

It is imperative that you contact your Member of Congress today and strongly urge them to support the Modern Fish Act.

The Modern Fish Act (included in H.R. 200/S.1520) will make critically important changes to federal fishing regulations, including several key provisions contained in both bill that are supported by a broad coalition of recreational fishing and boating organizations:
• Allows for recreational fisheries to be managed using more appropriate management tools
• Modifies the annual catch limit requirement to allow for more adaptive approaches
• Requires managers in the southeastern U.S. to perform long-overdue examinations of fishery allocation, based on modern criteria
• Limits the spread of catch share programs that have negatively impacted anglers and fishing communities
• Promotes consideration of new data collection methods that could improve fisheries management and conservation
• Ensures exempted fishing permits help fisheries management and conservation - rather than the status quo which can hinder both
Please urge your Member of Congress to support the Modern Fish Act.
