I currently live in Anchorage and since I moved here in 2017, one thing has stayed very clear to me: fishing rules Alaska. I recently visited Ketchikan, Wrangell, and Petersburg to campaign on the Roadless Rule and how important it is to the Tongass National Forest.
Fishing is such a high economic driver in the Southeast and logging will never compare to the fishing industry. The comment period ends Dec. 17 and you can leave a comment on the Sitka Conservation website. I hope the people of Alaska can see that our fishing and these salmon streams are more important than bringing back a dying industry.
