Attorney General Schuette is working with allies nationwide to drive immediate action by the federal government to stop the spread of invasive Asian carp to the Great Lakes. An Asian carp invasion would devastate the $7 billion per year Great Lakes recreational fishing industry and result in the loss of jobs when Michigan can least afford it. The threat is real and Attorney General Schuette is working on multiple fronts to protect the ecology and economy of Great Lakes. The solution is a permanent long-term ecological separation between the Great Lakes and Mississippi River basin.
