Investivoq CongressRadar
Pallone and Booker urge deeper menhaden fishing cuts to protect New Jersey’s coastal wildlife and ecosystem.
Investivoq AI Summary
Lawmakers seek lower menhaden catch limits: Congressman Frank Pallone and Senator Cory Booker are urging the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission to reduce fishing limits for Atlantic menhaden, also called bunker. They say the fish are an important food source for marine and bird life along New Jersey’s coast.
Science cited in the request: The lawmakers point to a 2025 assessment that they say found menhaden biomass was lower than previously estimated and that larger cuts may be needed to meet ecological targets. They say the commission’s 20% coastwide cut for 2026 was not enough.
Next steps: The commission is expected to consider new fishing limits for 2027 through 2029 at a November meeting. Pallone and Booker say they want any new limit to reflect “the best available science” and protect wildlife and fishing communities.
