Tagging millions of fish might sound weird, but hey, data saves species, not just spreadsheets.

A small price to pay for keeping our lakes healthy and our fishermen’s jobs afloat.

More government tagging fish? Next, they'll tag us for taxes—where’s the freedom in that?

Marking fish so we don’t lose them to corporate overfishing? About time we got serious about conservation.

Why fix the fish when the real problem is government overreach—less spending, more common sense.
right-leaning 03/06/2025
Throwing $2.7 million at fish IDs instead of cutting red tape won’t fix a thing.

If we can track these fish better, maybe we can stop treating the Great Lakes like a giant dumping ground.

Smart tracking means smarter fishing—good for the lakes, good for the economy, and good for everyone.

Finally, a bill that actually puts science over greed—Great Lakes deserve protection, not pollution.
