Many have asked what more they can do to help in the fight for greater transparency in our fisheries and to end the secret meetings.

One of the important steps is to contact your state representatives. If they start receiving a ton of emails with strong messages asking for their support, they will pay attention. It only takes a couple of minutes, but the impact is huge.

Here is a link to find who your representatives are:

Find your Legislator

Also, we have a new Chairman of Natural resources.
Sen. Kevin Van De Wege from Sequim, (MA 6).
It is very important that Senator Van De Wedge gets emails from you as well. Since most of the legislation from WDFW goes through his committee.

Senator Christine Rolfes from Bainbridge Island(MA 10) is now the Chair of the Budget Committee. Very important to WDFW. She too needs to get your emails.

Our sport and our fish are being decimated. Conservation should be the priority, and cooperation between ALL is the only way we can work together to save our fish. We cannot have one side of the co-management process deny the other the right to be informed and involved in the process.

PLEASE get those email out.
