Here is a reply I received today.

Thank you for your e-mail regarding SCR-11 and S-2750/ A-4407. 
 
SCR-11 would determine that the Fish and Game Council’s proposal to allow the use of enclosed foothold traps is inconsistent with the plain language and legislative intent of the 1984 law banning animal traps of the steel-jaw leg hold type. S-2750/ A-4407 would ban the manufacture, sale, possession, importation, transportation or use of certain traps.
 
SCR-11 and S-2750/ A-4407 were referred to the Senate Environment and Energy Committee.  While I am not a member of this committee, I will certainly keep your comments in mind should this Resolution come before us on the Senate floor for a final vote.  In the meantime, you may wish to write to the chair of this committee to voice your views.  His address is as follows:
 
            The Honorable Bob Smith
            216 Stelton Road, Suite E-5
            Piscataway, New Jersey  08854
            sensmith@njleg.org
 
 
For your further information, you may track this bill or any legislation of interest to you at the New Jersey Legislative website by logging onto www.njleg.state.nj.us or you may call the Office of Legislative Services toll free number at 1-800-792-8630.  Again, thank you for taking the time to contact me regarding this important bill.  Your input is always welcome and considered.
 
Sincerely yours,
 
 
Senator Joe Pennacchio
Senate Republican Whip

Well the results are in for the new Governor and it is not good for the outdoorsmen and trappers of NJ. The bear hunt will be the first the battle. If that battle is lost by us then the trapping bills will be next is my guess. If we win the bear battle then the trapping will be the next battle LOL So trappers and NJ outdoorsmen we better get our acts together. Because the trapping bills will be addressed. The AR groups will not let it go and they have legislators on their side. For those of you writing and emailing thank you keep going. We need to key in on both committees hard and write the committee members not just the chair. Remember to bcc the email to njfedtrap@gmail.com

We need a singular voice to oppose these bills. We need a spokesman and a concerted effort to offer commentary to the media. The NJTA and NJFH should form a joint committee or something.
