North Atlantic right whales, once decimated by whaling, now face extinction with only about 400 remaining, including fewer than 100 breeding females. Commercial shipping and fishing pose the primary threats.

To reverse this decline, urgent protection from fishing gear entanglements and ship strikes is essential. Reducing vertical lines from fishing gear and mandating slower ship speeds are critical steps.

The Magnuson-Stevens Act (MSA) is our essential fisheries law, vital for ensuring healthy fisheries and abundant waters for future generations. Efforts to weaken the MSA are shortsighted and threaten our fisheries. Fishermen nationwide urge decision-makers to keep this law strong, ensuring our oceans remain full of fish.

The U.S. Pacific coast seafloor teems with vital marine life, providing essential habitat for fish and other animals. However, these beautiful coral gardens and spongebeds face destruction from bottom trawl nets. Stronger government protections are crucial to safeguard this precious ecosystem.
