Budget Bill Concerns





Terms in a budget bill that could result in “development, fragmentation, habitat loss and potential pollution” have several sportsmen’s organizations concerned that it could lead to the loss of quality hunting and fishing opportunities, reports the U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance. The U.S. House of Representatives approved the bill, HR 4241, on Nov. 18. The Senate version does not include the land-sale provision. U.S. Rep. Richard Pombo (R-Calif.), chairman of the House Resources Committee, said he will make sure that when a conference committee works out the bill next month language preserving prime hunting and fishing opportunities is included.
