Last week, the Senate passed three vital bills to protect sportsmen from being evicted for having a firearm in their leased home and business (HB 469/SB 350), ban them from a patchwork of local hunting regulations across the state (HB 2017/SB 2028), and continue wildlife management through the Tennessee Fish and Wildlife Commission and the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) (HB 1611/SB 1554).
We will keep you informed of when HB 469/SB 350 will be transmitted to Governor Lee for his consideration. In the meantime, please use the Take Action button below to email your state representative, urging him/her to vote “Yes” on HB 2017/SB 2028 and HB 1611/SB 1554.
Protecting Second Amendment Rights for Renters (HB 469/SB 350)
HB 469/SB 350 protects sportsmen and firearm owners who choose to rent their homes or places of business from eviction.
Preventing a Patchwork of Local Hunting Regulations (HB 2017/SB 2028)
HB 2017/SB 2028 ensures local governments, including cities, counties, and municipalities, cannot regulate the “manner and means” of taking wildlife, establishing that the sole authority to regulate hunting practices rests with the Tennessee Fish and Wildlife Commission and the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA).
Securing the Future of the Tennessee Fish and Wildlife Commission (HB 1611/SB 1554)
HB 1611/SB 1554 secures the future of our natural resources by extending the Tennessee Fish and Wildlife Commission through June 30, 2030.
