“I appreciate the gentleman from New Jersey joining us here. I have to admit in somewhat chagrin, I quoted you earlier in my speech when you were saying something very positive about this bill last time around. But I would also like to state for the record the concept of the Garden State Seafood Association, which is from your home State of New Jersey and which also supports this bill, as they had said simply that it adjusts ``certain specific problematic regulations that have not proven to function as intended since they were added or amended in the last reauthorization a decade ago.'' There are problems with the status quo this bill fixes. I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from South Carolina (Mr. Duncan), also a farm worker of our committee, and with appreciation for an amendment that he added in committee that made a significant impact, especially for the recreational fisheries of America.”
