Here is the response I received from the letter I wrote to the RI Governor:

Dear Paul,

Thank you for contacting Governor Raimondo’s office regarding striped bass regulations. We appreciate you taking the time to reach out.

Striped bass are very important to Rhode Island and our fishermen. Governor Raimondo has been seeking input from the Department of Environmental Management on the issue, and understands the significance of the Department’s pending regulatory decision. DEM has received many public comments, which have been incorporated into the public record. Yesterday the RI Marine Fisheries Council met to formulate a recommendation to the DEM Director. The Director will then make the final decision.

Thanks again for reaching out. As always we welcome your thoughts, ideas, and concerns and encourage you to share them with us.

Sincerely,

Brad Inman

Director of Constituent Services

Office of Governor Gina M. Raimondo
