Marine industry files lawsuit challenging legality of federal councils cracking down on fishermen
Fox News
The federal government was hit with a lawsuit by an industry group representing fishermen over regulations curbing how much fish can be caught off the New England coast.
"When I was a vessel captain, the New England Fishery Management Council controlled every facet of my business, from catch quotas to conservation measures," NEFSA CEO Jerry Leeman said in a statement shared with Fox News Digital. Thomas Catenacci is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
"Despite the significant power council members exercise, they are shielded from democratic control and political accountability," he continued. "We live in a democracy and our fishery is a public resource. The public needs to be able to participate in its management and care."
