Statement of Senator Don Gaetz Opposing National Marine Fisheries Service Sudden Closing of Amberjack Season.
GOPUSA.com, 21 October 2009
Today, without warning and with apparent disregard for the impact on Northwest Florida's economy, the National Marine Fisheries Service suddenly announced that it was closing the amberjack season. This decision combines too much authority with too little science.
I strongly oppose this arbitrary decision and have asked the NMFS to reconsider and recall their announcement. No valid and reliable scientific evidence has been presented that would justify this action.
NMFS is a federal agency outside of the jurisdiction of the State of Florida. Therefore I am appealing to our two US senators, George LeMieux and Bill Nelson, and Congressmen Allan Boyd and Jeff Miller to join me in a request for reconsideration.

GOPUSA Florida Editor Resigns for Family Reasons
Bill Dillon, Florida Editor, 21 October 2009
As our parents age, we owe them the full support they gave us in our infancy and adolescent years. To properly support our folks who live in another state, I have had to resign after almost 10 years as Florida State Editor.
I do wish to thank all who provided me suggestions or have written news items, especially the Florida Republican Liberty Caucus members: (click) RLC of Florida Homepage. They are a force of principled renewal within the GOP.
I have thoroughly enjoyed the years as Florida SE and will continue to support Dr. Bobby Eberle's GOPUSA and write an essay or news item from time to time for that unique site.
Should you wish to contact me, please drop me line at billdill@cox.net.
