特朗普政府周五为美国渔民推出新举措,包括一个名为 Seafood.gov 的新政府网站。

The Trump administration unveiled new initiatives for U.S. fishermen Friday, including a new government website known as Seafood.gov.

白宫称,卫生与公众服务部(HHS)部长小罗伯特·F·肯尼迪在佛罗里达州迈尔斯堡的集会上宣布,食品药品监督管理局(FDA)从周五起开始提供一种针对美国捕捞鱼类的自愿性标识。

At a rally in Fort Myers, Fla., Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced the creation of a voluntary label made for U.S.-caught fish, which the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began offering Friday, the White House said.

肯尼迪在集会上表示,美国捕捞的鱼类质量高于欧洲捕捞和进口海产品。

Kennedy said at the rally that fish caught in the U.S. is of higher quality than European-caught and imported seafood.

“欧洲没有一个国家会要它们,所以它们全运到这儿来了,”肯尼迪指着虾说。“特朗普总统正在重建基础设施,为我们的商业渔民重新打开市场。”美国国家海洋和大气管理局(NOAA)的数据显示,2023 年美国消费的鱼类约有 80% 为进口。

“No European country will take them, so they ship them all over here,” Kennedy said, referring to shrimp. “President Trump is rebuilding the infrastructure, he’s reopening the markets for our commercial fishermen.”Data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) shows that in 2023, an estimated 80 percent of fish consumed in the U.S. was imported from other countries.

新英格兰渔民管理协会(NEFSA)对肯尼迪的宣布作出回应,在社交平台 X 上发布声明称,美国制造的标识是美国人的“重大胜利”。

The New England Fishermen’s Stewardship Association (NEFSA) reacted to Kennedy’s announcement, saying in a statement shared to the social platform X that the U.S.-made label is a “major win” for Americans.

“我们相信美国海产品是世界上最可持续捕捞的,这一标识让消费者能以一种简单、易识别的方式辨认美国捕捞的海产品,同时支持我们的国内捕捞、加工和零售行业,”NEFSA 倡导总监杰森·乔伊斯说。

“We believe U.S. seafood is the most sustainably harvested in the world, and this label gives consumers a simple, recognizable way to identify American-caught seafood while supporting our domestic fishing, processing, and retail industries,” NEFSA director of advocacy Jason Joyce said.

这项新渔业举措出台之际,总统与加拿大的贸易战让业内一些人感到不安。

The new fishing initiative comes after the president’s trade war with Canada ruffled feathers with some in the industry.

缅因州龙虾协会 8 月表示,担心成为贸易战的“附带损害”,因为加拿大从缅因州渔场采购大量龙虾。

The Maine Lobstermen’s Association said in August it feared becoming “collateral damage” in the trade war because Canada purchases large quantities of lobster from Maine fisheries.
