Mills & Keliher Respond to First Circuit Court Decision Reinstating Lobster Fishery Closure
Governor Mills and Department of Marine Resources Commissioner Patrick Keliher issued the following statements today on the U.S. Court of Appeals’ decision to reinstate a 967 square mile fisheries closure off the Maine coast. “This is a deeply disappointing result. This sudden closure will cause significant economic hardship for Maine’s lobster industry,,, Patrick Keliher noted the operational and safety challenges posed by the recent court decisions. “This industry is suffering from whiplash, trying to change plans based on these rapidly evolving court decisions,” said Commissioner Keliher. “Moving gear around 30 miles off-shore at this time of the year also poses a serious safety risk for fishermen. Fishermen’s lives are at stake and NOAA and the courts have an obligation to take fisherman safety into concern when they make these decisions.” >click to read< 08:41
A politician’s job is to get elected. My experience was: the pols that pretend to help the most, are the ones hurting you the most.
Politics is fake. It isn’t Left vs. Right, Dems vs. Reps, Rich vs. Poor, Black against White. It is Good vs. Evil.
Like Resident Biden said, “we don’t need your votes”.
The Great Awakening is here. There are only two choices-Freedom or Slavery.
Well said. Amen to that.
