Chef friends! I just signed the Portland Pact for Sustainable Seafood to keep U.S. fisheries strong and seafood favorites on the plate. Join me in protecting our nation’s delicious sustainably-caught seafood. #ChefsforFish #SignthePact

Attn fellow chefs: Got fish? If it came from U.S. waters, you can thank the Magnuson-Stevens Act for making sure there’s plenty more where that came from! Sign the Portland Pact for Sustainable Seafood. #ChefsforFish #SignthePact

The Magnuson-Stevens Act supports U.S. jobs, healthy oceans, and access to delicious sustainably-caught seafood. Chefs: Sign the Portland Pact for Sustainable Seafood. #ChefsforFish #SignthePact

Attention fellow chefs: Want fish? The Magnuson-Stevens Act ensures access of plenty of sustainably-caught domestic seafood, now and in the future. Sign the Portland Pact for Sustainable Seafood! #ChefsforFish #SignthePact

More and more, customers want to know where their food is coming from and want to know that it is harvested in sustainable and responsible ways. I am grateful to be able to offer delicious, sustainable seafood on my menu, and it’s all because we have strong laws in place that keep our U.S. fisheries sustainable.

I’m proud to join #ChefsforFish in telling Congress to keep these laws strong. It’s good for business!
