house 03/21/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to reverse the recent federal rule that designated the Longfin Smelt in the San Francisco Bay-Delta as an endangered species, aiming to prevent that rule from taking effect. Our goal is to ensure this decision reflects a balanced approach between environmental concerns and other regional interests.

Disapproving this rule is a slap in the face to science and future generations—short-sighted politics at its finest.

Could use more data, less politics—endangered or not, let’s not make a hasty call on the Longfin Smelt.

Maybe there's a middle ground here, but tossing out protections entirely feels like throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Saving every last minnow? Sorry, but economic progress can’t be held hostage by bureaucratic fish fantasies.

Congress doing its job by cutting red tape—protecting fish won’t put food on our tables.

I get balancing jobs and environment, but wiping out endangered status without a backup plan sounds like a gamble we can’t afford.

If we don’t protect the Longfin Smelt, what’s next? Letting democracy wither while lobbyists write the rules?

Endangered smelt? Sounds like another regulation strangling growth and jobs in the Bay Area.

Ignoring endangered species is like turning off the smoke alarm while the house burns—reckless and irresponsible.
