From the transcript
And same goes for the Board of Fish and also the North Pacific Fishery Management Council, which I think for a long time has been kind of the sleeper body in the state of Alaska. Most people, you know, didn't even know what it is, but it is just as important as the Board of Game and the Board of Fish. And making sure that there's a rural and Native perspective on the North Pacific Council is another priority for me. I also just more generally want to make sure the administration more broadly looks like Alaska and has, you know, rural, urban, Native, non-native, all of those perspectives represented. Represented fairly in the administration.
