Jordon Hudsonwas making a statement during Super Bowl weekend.
Dazzling in a blue sequin dress with coral reef designs and carrying a lobster bag — both of which she said she purchased on Facebook Marketplace — Hudson said she wants the message on the back of her bag to bring awareness to the plight of fishermen in her Maine hometown.
“I have a message that pays homage to my family and a message that I’d like to put out there and give a little bit of recognition to the fishermen in Maine,” Hudson said, showing how she customized her bag to spell out “Save Maine Fishermen” in black rhinestones.

The Provincetown, Maine native also shared that her thigh-high white boots were purchased second-hand on Poshmark. “I really believe in the secondhand market,” Hudson said, noting that it’s “better for the environment” and for her “wallet — or in this case my lobster,” she jokes.

Advocating for the fishing communities where she grew up is greatly important to Hudson and her family. In fact, Hudson said she is currently working on producing a documentary about her family family history and the ongoing struggles of Maine fishermen.

Hudson explained that while the bills in Maine were passed “in the name of sustainability and environmental protection,” the policies failed to account for “the natural environment and human environment” and the elected officials “did not possess the essential knowledge base necessary to make informed decisions regarding the matter.”
Hudon also argued that the officials showed no desire to “community with or listen to those who had data-backed solutions” to the issues. “By the time these bills were repealed or amended, the subsequent damage was irreversible for many, including us,” she added.
