Chellie joined Sens. Susan Collins and Angus King, Gov. Janet Mills, and Rep. Jared Golden to call on the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch to immediately reverse the controversial listing of Maine lobster on their seafood “Red List” and to remedy the significant harm they have already caused the industry.

In her joint letter to Seafood Watch, they said “The recent decision by Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch to ‘Red List’ Maine lobster with scant evidence of impacts on right whales is a reckless piece of activism that will inflict substantial negative real-world consequences on an important and iconic industry in Maine.”
