Proponents of Assembly Bill 3030 say, "California faces a … biodiversity and climate crisis, with nature in a steep decline and greenhouse gas emissions not declining at the rate scientists say is needed in the United States and worldwide..."

LEGISLATIVE ALERT - NO-FISHING ZONES TO EXPAND!

California's State Legislature is looking to expand Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) off California's coastline.

When the COVID-19 pandemic has devasted our economy and jobs dependent on sportfishing and outdoor tourism, what is the State Legislature thinking?
