President Trump helped out the coal miners, he may need to help out the lobstermen who are being choked by Obama regulations and actions as well.
In the report the fishermen mention an area of the ocean declared a monument so they can’t fish there?
That’s the Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument.
Obama strikes again! He declared it a monument in 2016, thus prohibiting fishing, kicking an already strained industry in the teeth.
As the Maine Lobsterman Association spokesperson notes, this will kill thousands of jobs.
