Earlier this week, HB 1003, a bill that includes a dangerous provision to eliminate the Natural Resources Commission (NRC), passed the House. The bill now moves to the Senate for consideration.

The Threat to Hunting and Fishing Rights
As previously reported, if the NRC is not removed from this egregious bill, the body that ensures our hunting and fishing rights are managed transparently and with public input will cease to exist.
Ending Oversight and Public Transparency
Remember, without the NRC, management decisions for our state parks and fish and wildlife will be moved “behind closed doors.” Removing the NRC’s layer of oversight undermines fairness and erodes trust between the state and us, the people who fund conservation.
Take Action: Defend the Sportsman’s Way of Life
Do not forget to share this urgent alert with your family, friends, and fellow sportsmen. Urge them to take action when the time comes. Sportsmen are no longer just stewards of the land, water, and our cherished natural resources. We ARE the frontline defenders of a way of life increasingly under scrutiny. Our natural resources belong to us, not the politicians.
The Sportsmen’s Alliance guarantees hunting, fishing, and trapping for the American sportsman now and forever. We’re there when sportsmen need us most. We are the only organization specifically created to protect the individual hunter, angler, and trapper – no matter the threat. We will never compromise when it comes to defending our way of life in the courts, in the legislatures, in the public square, and at the ballot box. We make this promise to the American sportsman: we will never give up and never give in while proudly securing our future against those seeking to destroy our values, beliefs, and traditions.
