Here are just a few photos from the 'Rally for Salmon' in Portland on Saturday, June 25. More than 300 people gathered on the banks of the Willamette River - and nearly 100 watercraft - canoes, kayaks, rafts and sportfishing boats rallied on the water - to call on Congress and the Biden Administration to act urgently to protect and recover salmon abundance in the Pacific Northwest - and develop a comprehensive regional plan this year to restore a freely-flowing lower Snake River.
