Yesterday I had the honor of joining the Coast Salish Gathering Transboundary Summit with leaders from Puget Sound Tribes and British Columbia First Nations.pic.twitter.com/WX4naDVUkA
The day was an eye-opener for me, as leaders shared their first-hand accounts of how increased vessel traffic, often transporting hazardous crude oil, is curtailing the very act of fishing and a cultural heritage spanning thousands of years.
Thank you to Chairman @briancladoosby, Swinomish Tribal Community, for hosting the Summit.
We were buoyed by yesterday’s decision by the United States Supreme Court to uphold of the 9th Circuit Court’s direction to replace culverts that are blocking salmon from returning to their home streams.
The Amicus Brief I filed in support of Tribes underscored the choices that local, state, and federal government must make to protect healthy habitat and restore what has been lost.

We must work across governments and dotted lines on map to protect and recover the Salish Sea ecosystem and honor #treatyrights.
