We stand with Alaska State Senator Albert Kookesh and all our Native fishermen on this. Times are hard in our Southeast Tlingit and Northern Yukon River Villages now and they are going after all our families on subsistence. That salmon was intended for families to help them this winter. With oil prices always raising this is going to be anther long winter.
