WASHINGTON — Following Rep. Seth Moulton’s press conference and forum with fishermen and NOAA officials this morning and a direct appeal to the Undersecretary of Commerce and Acting Director of NOAA earlier this month, NOAA has announced it will delay the return of At-Sea Monitors until at least August 1st.
U.S. Rep. Seth Moulton on Tuesday continued to press NOAA Fisheries to reverse its decision to return at-sea monitors aboard commercial fishing vessels as the pandemic still rages, saying the agency "is sailing right into a hurricane" of its own making.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is delaying its requirement for several hundred Atlantic groundfish and scallop vessels to carry at-sea monitors and fishery observers for another month due to COVID-19-related concerns.

WASHINGTON — Today, Representative Seth Moulton (D-MA) and Teri and Patrick Caserta, parents of fallen United States Navy Petty Officer Third Class Brandon Caserta, announced the introduction of The Brandon Act.
WASHINGTON — Over the past two years, Patrick and Teri Caserta have tried to create a positive legacy for their son, a 21-year-old sailor who died by suicide June 25, 2018, after throwing himself into the spinning tail rotor of a MH-60s helicopter at Naval Station Norfolk, Va.
A command investigation into Brandon Caserta’s death determined that belligerent and brash leadership of Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 28 contributed to his decision to end his own life. He felt alone, stuck and afraid of retaliation, his parents said.
Petty Officer 3rd Class Brandon Caserta was trapped.
The Navy was forcing Caserta to spend another year in a rating he hated under a toxic supervisor, who constantly bullied him and insulted him for not completing SEAL training because he broke his leg during Basic Underwater Demolition School, Patricia Kime of Military.com first reported.
