More Menhaden Bullsh*t

Here's the latest...
Representative Joe Orgeron, Vice Chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee, stepped up. On February 11th, he formally requested an oversight hearing to increase transparency and ensure that all public comments were made available to committee members.
An oversight hearing would have been a strong outcome for this cause. Instead, the Chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee (Rep. Brett F. Geymann) directed the matter into the standard legislative process.
Unfortunately, that changes the dynamic. An oversight hearing would have required agency testimony under oath, formally entered public comments into the committee record, and allowed legislators to directly question LDWF.
As it stands, this will now proceed through the regular legislative process — which, in my view, is a total FAIL.
CCA loses leverage and so do we.

I see Texas, Alabama, and Florida actively making decisions that better their public resource while Louisiana is hell bent on pouring gasoline on the demise of their own.
Dumb idea I know but it would be satisfying jf the charter coalition of Louisiana along with recreational fishing license holders sue for damages as a collective against Daybrook, other Menhaden entities, and all users of said menhaden product and byproducts. Sue for $$$ and settle for vastly more restrictive provisions or removal of Menhaden fishing from state waters.
