I blew the whistle on the Trump administration because I believe you unlawfully retaliated against me for disclosing the perilous impacts of climate change upon Alaska Native communities.

Was this non-compliance recommendation provided through the Secretary? Did the NOAA Fisheries recommend that Secretary Ross find New Jersey to be out of compliance?
