In this episode of the Sportsmen's Voice Roundup, Fred Bird and Chris Horton kick off with our lead story discussing the introduction of the Sporting Goods Excise Tax Modernization Act in the Senate and how this bipartisan bill stands to combat tax and conservation funding avoidance. They then tackle an update on the Rigs to Reef legislation, new legislation out of North Dakota's recent legislative session, enhancements to Alaska's Big Game Commercial Services Board, the Fix Our Forest Act aimed at wildfire risk reduction, and efforts to expand Sunday hunting opportunities in Connecticut.
Takeaways
The Sporting Goods Excise Tax Modernization Act: This legislation is crucial for conservation funding, by closing loopholes exploited by foreign manufacturers to get around the North American Model.
North Dakota Senate Bill 2137: This North Dakota bill, which has been passed and signed into law, prohibits NDGFD from enacting or implementing policies related to baiting or supplemental feeding for hunting big game animals on private property.
Alaska Big Game Service Board: Alaska's Big Game Commercial Services Board is being enhanced - look for more in a future episode with Marie Neumiller on that one!
