Legislative ALERT & UPDATE Fishing and Hunting Protection Bill Introduced in the U.S. SenateProtection of fishing, hunting, and shooting on national forest and public lands has taken a step forward with the Senate introduction of the Recreational Fishing and Hunting Heritage and Opportunities Act. Introduced by Senators Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) and Joe Manchin (D-West Virginia), the measure is backed by the U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance, American Sportfishing Association, National Rifle Association, Safari Club International, Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation, and others in the angling, hunting and wildlife conservation community. Read more Act Now to Stop Obama/Holder Gun Registration Scheme Recently, a federal district court in Washington, D.C. issued a ruling upholding an Obama administration policy that requires federally licensed firearms retailers in states bordering Mexico to report multiple sales of semi-automatic rifles.

Please continue to call AND e-mail your state Representative urging him or her to support HB 1523 and HB 1668. These much-needed pro-gun bills would make critical changes to enhance Pennsylvania’s firearm laws.

To that effect, here is what we call The Dirty Dozen: Read more Three More Wins for Gun Owners H.R. 2055—the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2012—has been passed by the House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate and has been sent to the President for his expected signature. This bill contains three NRA-backed provisions that will strengthen our Second Amendment rights and prohibit your federal tax dollars from being used to advance an anti-gun agenda.

Articles of Interest From John C. Street Author's Bio - John is an inquisitive contrarian who writes, frequently with humor, about current events in fish and wildlife research as well as the ethical and societal issues that affect the outdoor life. I ain’t a politician but I got views by John C. Street “This is the coalition to ban coalitions, I ain’t a politician but I got views. Some folks want to ban cars, some want to get rid of electric guitars, why don’t you do you’re thing and I’ll do my thing too.” Merle Haggard In the last five years, I’ve dropped membership in all the clubs, associations and organizations to which an outdoor writer would be expected to belong; seven in all, notably including both the Pennsylvania Outdoor Writers Association and the Outdoor Writers Association of America.
