Not one response on a fishing site that constantly begs for the preservation and conservation of the striped bass and it’s habitat, yet this doesn’t seem to register on the same scale? Oh, the hypocrisy.

Half of wetlands and about 20% of streams will be unprotected according to the leaked government presentation. Between this and the pebble mine there is a much better chance your great grandkids won't catch striped bass or eat wild salmon.

President Bill Clinton established the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in 1996. It was previously the largest national monument in the country. President Trump has also slashed the Bears Ears National Monument by about a million acres — to roughly 15 percent of its original size. It’s not just rivers and watersheds this administration is putting in jeopardy. Mining rights are back open in places previous administrations where trying to save for future generations.

The Environmental Protection Agency is about to make it a lot harder to use legitimate scientific and medical studies in crafting environmental policy. According to a report published Monday by the New York Times, the agency is expanding its proposed "Strengthening Transparency in Regulatory Science" rule in a way that could completely dismantle how the agency uses scientific studies. It's the latest salvo in the agency's war on the exact thing it's supposed to protect — the environment.

I guess if you don’t believe the science, it makes sense you would direct the EPA to take steps to ignore it.
