Following a new ruling from the DC Circuit Court in Center for Biological Diversity v. Raimondo & Maine Lobstermen's Association, Congressman Jared Golden (ME-02) made the following statement.

"Judge Boasberg's ruling is the latest in what has been an unrelenting and groundless campaign against Maine lobstermen by elite, out-of-touch conservation groups and their city-dwelling, silver spoon donors and lobbyists. The Maine lobster community is working to understand the full implications of the ruling and determine next steps, and I will continue to fight alongside Maine lobstermen against yet another effort by special interests and unelected officials to ignore scientific data as they try to put lobstermen out of business." - Congressman Jared Golden (ME-02)
