MLA Newspaper

Your Source for Industry News Since 1988

Since 1988, the MLA Newspaper has been the trusted voice of the Massachusetts Lobstermen’s Association, delivering news that matters most to those who make their living on the water. Each issue keeps our community informed on regulations, safety updates, industry innovations, and the stories of lobstermen and their families. For over three decades, it has been more than just a newsletter—it’s a lifeline of information and advocacy for the men and women working along our coast.

MLA Digital Newspaper

Attention MLA members!

Starting September 2026 the MLA Newsletter is going digital! With this new format you will now be receiving our newspaper each month, sent directly to your email.

Moving from a traditional printed newsletter to an online, interactive format gives us a lot more flexibility and allows us to communicate with our members faster, more efficiently, and more effectively. Rather than waiting for the next printed issue to arrive in the mail, we can now get important information, updates, deadlines, surveys, and calls to action directly into your hands when they matter most.
