TSV Roundup Week of October 14th, 2024

In this week's episode of the Sportsmen's Voice Roundup, Fred is joined once again by CSF’s ow Barry Snell to discuss the current state of gun legislation in California, highlighting the recent passage of anti-gun bills and the unique political landscape shaped by urban and rural divides. Barry Snell discusses the implications of these laws, the resilience of gun owners, and the importance of community advocacy in the face of restrictive legislation.

Then, Fred is back covering all that’s fit to print related to hunting, fishing, and other conservation issues across the nation including CSF’s 20th Annual Wine, Wheels, and Wildlife event, emphasizing the importance of hunting and fishing rights, new hunting regulations in Massachusetts, Missouri's deer management efforts, Pennsylvania's new “Sportsman” license plate initiative for youth hunting, support of Amendment 2 in Florida and the opposition to Prop 127 in Colorado. Fred highlights the role of sportsmen in conservation and the need for legislative support to protect outdoor traditions.

Takeaways

• California Legislative Landscape: While California's legislative landscape is often dominated by anti-gun bills, this year saw a reduction in the number of anti-gun bills passed. Most new laws are minor corrections rather than significant changes.
• Wine, Wheels, and Wildlife: Wine, Wheels, and Wildlife celebrates 20 years of supporting outdoor heritage.
• Proposition 127 In Colorado: Opposition to Prop 127 in Colorado is vital for protecting our hunting heritage and science-based wildlife management, with a strong coalition of outdoor groups opposing it.
• Amendment 2 in Florida: Floridians should support Amendment 2 to secure the Right to Hunt and Fish in the Sunshine State. Protecting Hunting and Fishing at the Ballot Box in Florida – Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation
• Right to Hunt, Fish and Harvest Wildlife – Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation
