California: Traditional Hunting Ammunition Ban Legislation to be Heard in State Senate Committee

Monday, June 3, 2013

Contact Members of the Senate Committee on Natural Resources and Water TODAY!

 

If enacted, Assembly Bill 711 would make California the first state in the nation to prohibit the use of lead ammunition for ALL hunting.  Such a ban on traditional ammunition would have devastating effects on hunting and conservation.  You cannot let this happen!   AB 711 is scheduled to be heard in the state Senate Committee on Natural Resources and Water on Tuesday, June 11th.  It is CRITICAL that YOU contact members of the Senate Committee on Natural Resources and Water to strongly and respectfully urge them to OPPOSE AB 711.

Please forward this alert to friends, family and sportsmen throughout California because it is going to take a united effort to stop this egregious and misguided legislation.

The following members of the Natural Resources and Water Committee must hear from you TODAY.  Respectfully urge them to vote NO on AB 711.
