I'm Eric from Hawaii. The United States fisheries are the best managed in the world, and this action is really about balancing, you know, the interests in U.S. exclusive economic zone. You can have both ocean protection under our laws as well as sustainable fishing. And that's what this is about. And I think, Mr. President, you are the only President that has really stepped up in terms of supporting fishermen like you're doing.
