I see no reason not to pass this bill. The Asian Carp is a known invasive species, so it only makes sense to limit their numbers as much as we can, so that our regional ecosystem is not damaged more.

I believe this is a good bill because invasive species have devastated local populations in the past and have harmed the economic conditions of many fishermen in the past.

Feral pests are a nuisance. This bill deserves to be passed to create incentives to help eradicate this pest.

I motion for a final vote.
