John,

This month, I was honored to attend the 2022 UN Ocean
Conference in Lisbon. I joined with over 6,000 other participants
leading the work for urgent and concrete actions to tackle the
ocean crisis.

Climate change is the greatest challenge of our lifetime,
and because of it we know that our ocean is in a dire state:
rising sea levels, coastal erosion, warmer and more acidic
waters, pollution, extreme overfishing, destruction of marine
biodiversity, and more.

Of the many issues that span across borders and
jurisdictions, this ocean crisis is one of the most pressing we
currently face, and one that cannot be adequately addressed
without swift international cooperation.

The Lisbon conference was an unprecedented opportunity
for global leaders to come together in support of innovative and
science-based action to improve and protect our oceans’ health.
It is heartening to see such enthusiastic recommitment to meeting
our collective goal of achieving at least 30% ocean protection
and 100% sustainable management by 2030.

John, we can’t become complacent
now. We must live up to the agreements of this conference and put
our discussion into action. Our climate depends on it.

It is time for us to invest in the expansion and
management of marine protected areas, commit to reducing and
eliminating plastic pollution, calling for regulation targeting
abusive overfishing practices, and continue fighting against Big
Oil’s offshore drilling.

In Congress, I have been proud to be on the front lines
of this work protecting our oceans and coastal communities, but
we know this is a long-game effort – and time is quickly running
out to halt and reverse our oceans’ health and get our marine
ecosystems on the path to a sustainable future.

I am ready for the work ahead, and I hope you’ll stand
with me in this moment when collaboration and collective effort
is needed most.

Thanks for all you do,

Jared Huffman
