Close The Chicago Locks For Good….

Silver carp DNA has now been detected in the Kalamazoo River, 20 miles INLAND from Lake Michigan.  Asian carp have now crossed Lake Michigan and begun infiltrating our rivers and streams.

There has been too much talk and not enough action.  Officials have tried to persuade Michiganders that asian carp from Chicago posed no risk to our fisheries.

Once again, they have been proven wrong.

Enough talk.

Close the Chicago Locks before the entire Lake Michigan fishery is destroyed.
