In a short email, tell them...
Dear Representative xxxx
Thank you for sponsoring Bill H.5165 that would prohibit the purse seining of
menhaden in Narragansett Bay.
(briefly tell them that:
- menhaden are important filter feeders that will help to improve the ecosystem
of the Bay
- menhaden are an important food source for many species of fish that are
recreationally and commercially important)
Please do all that you can to ensure passage of this important legislation.
Thank you again
