Here's a thought: Instead of killing the importation of shrimp, which helps the American consumer, why not fix the cost of distillate fuels by reversing Biden's policies on producing energy? Within hours of taking office, Bozo killed the Keystone Pipeline and restricted drilling on federal lands and offshore. The result was that a major input resource to the fishing industry--fuel--shot through the roof. Immediately, distribution costs skyrocketed (e.g., trucks, ships, and rail) as his policies took effect.

Instead of passing a law that keeps shrimp prices high and hurts the American consumer, lower the shrimp industry's major input cost and get rid of Biden's restrictive fuel policies.

The dims killed off the Keystone XL to pander to the eco weenies. I don’t think they knew what massive problems it caused.

It killed jobs on the pipeline and at the refineries in Port Arthur, TX (btw, that is a big time union town)
It caused the price of all fuels to go up driving the prices of everything else to go up.

Rich libs don’t care because none of this affects them. But it does affect most of the dimrat voters. I hope President Trump finds a way to communicate that to the misguided Americans that still vote for the dimrat candidates.

You, sir, get it. It all boils down to the cost of energy.

All of it.

It IS true that imports keep prices low and we need them. We do not need the filth, contamination and the slave like labor practices that go with those imports, which is why I suggest we limit them by stopping said offenders.
I totally agree about the energy policies. Think I saw a stat that fuel went from .65 to over $3,,,that the average boat uses 100 gal a day.
