Thanks for posting. At least its getting some attention. I honestly think Schumer is the guy that can get some traction for change. He doesn't want to lose what he gained for NY to begin with and he has some power.

How is this possible?? Chuck Schumer a Democrat...A LIBERAL helping out fisherman ? I have read so many anti-dem/lib posts on this site. I think this is a job for Donny not Chuck! Merry Christmas!

The big mistake made by Fishermen is going strictly by party lines. Politicians from both sides have helped and hurt. Schumer is engaged for fishing rights for his NY constituents and proved it by getting regionalization passed so NY got the same regs as NJ and CT when they were at 2 Fish x 20". He doesn't want to lose that ground with his own. Happy holidays to you as well

It's not a party issue
It's a big govt vs states rights issue

Agreed and I don't care who gets it done. We will work with whatever branch of legislation that is willing to work with us.

Good old Chucky has a different issue every week. next week it will be another and he will have forgotten all about this.

Same shit in NJ with Pallone for years, blah, blah, pics in the news, gone. However since its about all we got we have to get from them whatever we can.
Smith repub in NJ for years, quiet as a mouse as usual. Crawl up there asses. Call sportswriters and have them call these guys out, they hate bad publicity. E-mail daily,send letters weekly. Better than nothing

I am not a overall fan of Schumer but I believe he attended both fisherman rallies in D.C..... did you?
If not maybe it is time for you to get off your azz and have your voice heard finally.
Numbers are the only thing that will get the politicians and media attention on this matter.
So instead of throwing your hands up in the air and saying you can't do anything about it, make a difference and be counted.
