RESTORING AMERICAN SALTWATER ANGLING AND RECREATION
This executive order directs federal agencies (primarily NOAA and the Department of Commerce) to shift fisheries management toward prioritizing recreational fishing over commercial interests by modernizing data collection, replacing outdated mail-in surveys with real-time mobile reporting, and allowing state-collected data to substitute for federal data when error rates are lower. It also mandates reviewing and potentially revising National Standards under the Magnuson-Stevens Act, rescinding regulations that restrict marine access, and launching pilot programs for iconic fisheries like Atlantic striped bass, with the goal of boosting the $1.2 trillion outdoor recreation sector.
Reinvigorating America's Hunting Heritage
This executive order directs multiple federal agencies (Interior, Agriculture, Labor, Education, Veterans Affairs, Commerce, and the Secretary of War) to expand hunting and fishing access on federal lands, including opening specific national monuments to hunting, allowing traditional lead ammunition, promoting hunting education in schools, encouraging Sunday hunting on state and federal lands, and facilitating wild game donation programs. It aims to reverse restrictions on access and cultivate a new generation of hunters through policy changes and funding guidance.
Restoring Reciprocity in Government Procurement
This Presidential Memorandum directs the Office of Management and Budget, the U.S. Trade Representative, and other federal agencies to identify and remove Canadian-origin items from federal civil procurement where possible, citing Canada's 'Buy Canadian' policies as discriminatory. It also requires agencies to be notified of domestic alternatives and mandates ongoing monitoring of Canada's procurement practices, with provisions for restoring access if Canada changes its policies.
