Two items of interest from the Sportsman’s Alliance:

Appropriations Bill that Includes CECIL Act Language Passes House

California Bill Banning Taxidermy to Receive Hearing

These things matter because they set precedents that can and will bite us in the arse down the road. If you’ve ever wondered how trappers can be more proactive against the Antis rather than always being on the defensive, then here’s a good way to help prevent future attacks on trapping and hunting in our own back yards.

Please take a few minutes to read the above linked articles. They're very brief and well worth your time.

It's a great organization, one of the few umbrella organizations that actively fight for trappers and trapping. Back in the day, it was called the Wildlife Legislative Fund of America.

Yes, they are a great organization. Have been fighting for ALL sportsmen, since founded when Ohio had their first ballot initive. Went nation wide just a year or two later. Everyone should be a member of them and as many trapping associations as you can afford! They have experience and they know how to win!
