Ban commercial harvesting of Menhaden in the Bay and Atlantic Ocean approaches to the Bay.
 

Ban commercial harvesting of Menhaden in the Bay an Atlantic Ocean approaches to the Bay.  Commercial harvesting of Menhaden benefits 'the few' and the expense of 'the many'.  Put American values of conservation and self-interests first.  I am ashamed Virginia has allowed this practice to continue when the science is now clear regarding the damage it does to the Bay ecosystem.
