Nice to see a little positive progress!


Committee Passes Sportsmen's Legislation
 
WASHINGTON, D.C., September 13, 2017 -
Today, the House Committee on Natural Resources passed H.R. 3668, the “Sportsmen’s Heritage and Recreational Enhancement Act of 2017” or “SHARE Act.” This bipartisan bill expands opportunities for hunting, fishing, and recreational shooting; increases safety and hearing protection for sportsmen and women; and protects Second Amendment rights. Chairman Rob Bishop (R-UT) issued the following statement:   

“The SHARE Act removes bureaucratic roadblocks that inhibit Americans’ access to outdoor sporting activities on federal lands and reigns in federal encroachment on Second Amendment rights. Members also adopted important amendments that improve upon this package, including provisions to address cumbersome permitting processes for guides and outfitters, which will result in more jobs and more Americans recreating outdoors. I look forward to advancing this package through the House and working with our Senate colleagues on a final bill that can be signed into law.”

Bet you our senators and reps vote against it.

I can't imagine any democrat voting for this.

And Paul Ryan is the A-hole who is refusing to bring HR38 to the floor.  Except for him, it would probably be signed into law by now. 

I can't imagine any democrat voting for this.

1 Dem was a cosponsor, and in committee it got 22 yes and 13 no votes.  It'll get almost all of the republican votes and maybe 1/3rd of the democrat votes.  There are some pro-hunting and moderate pro-gun democrats in congress, especially in the more conservative states.

It would be a guarantee pass if they put it up for a vote now.  I'm guessing they want to focus on immigration and taxes first though.

More bullshit legislation, designed to mislead and misdirect, We the People, from the FACT, that the 2nd Amendment garentees our RIGHT to armed self defense in public.   

When are THEY going to address this singular point?

this aint passing.   especially with the recent shootings and the movie portrayal of suppressors as magical devices that reduce the reports to the level of kids pop pops.
