AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would change federal fisheries law so that fishing in marine national monuments cannot be banned or regulated by a presidential proclamation under the Antiquities Act of 1906. This would apply to existing proclamations as well as future ones. Fishing in these ocean monuments would continue to be regulated under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act and other applicable law.
