Description

Joshua Brown is the environmental literacy and workforce development lead at National Sea Grant in D.C. He joins us to talk about the Young Fishermen's Development Act, a piece of legislation that aims to address the graying of the fleet. Joshua shares with us the potential and some of the limitations of this legislation, before getting into "how the sausage is made": who fought to have this legislation passed, how it got funded (and how it didn't), and why constant pressure matters in D.C.
