Justin Conrad, President of Bay Hill Seafood Sales, and the 2026 Chair of the National Fisheries Institute (NFI) will testify on 19 November 2025 before the House Committee on Natural Resources Subcommittee on Water, Wildlife and Fisheries.
The hearing will focus on the Fighting Foreign Illegal Seafood Harvests (FISH) Act, a bill that aims to help stop illegally caught fish from entering the US supply chain.
Conrad is calling illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing, “where it occurs, a black mark on the global industry that causes serious direct and collateral harms.”
NFI said his testimony will highlight the complex challenge IUU presents including the myriad ways it damages our industry and will offer strong support for the bill.
