Pennsylvania: Your Action Needed - Urge Your Representative to Support Important Pro-Hunting Legislation on Monday

On Monday, October 28, the Pennsylvania House of Representatives is scheduled to consider pro-hunting legislation, Senate Bill 147.  It is important that NRA Members and Second Amendment supporters contact their state Representative and strongly urge them to SUPPORT Senate Bill 147 with NO WEAKENING AMENDMENTS.

Senate Bill 147, sponsored by Senator Dan Laughlin, would expand opportunities for Pennsylvania hunters by providing for three additional days of hunting on Sundays during the season.  Hunters are responsible for millions of acres of habitat restoration and conservation dollars through Pittman-Robertson taxes paid on firearms and other hunting equipment and should have access to the public lands made possible by these funds. 

Many hunters are prevented from introducing their children or friends to hunting because it is difficult to find time and opportunities outside of the work or school week.  Countless hunters stop hunting because of this reality in our hectic lives.  Senate Bill 147 seeks to increase Pennsylvania hunters’ ability to enjoy our hunting heritage and will improve hunter recruitment and retention efforts.

Again, please contact your state Representative and urge them to SUPPORT Senate Bill 147 with NO WEAKENING AMENDMENTS.
