"H.R. 2304, introduced by Representative Wittman, is a good start, but it fails to help all fishermen."
"Mr. Wittman's proposed bill eases requirements that will provide more access to fisheries by recreational fishermen but does little to allow commercial fishermen similar access to their fisheries."
"We need to pass this bill and we need to pass it urgently, as soon as possible."
"I think our position has been pretty clear on that. We have been opposed to it from the beginning because we think the agency has the flexibility to do it."
