Connecticut Sunday Hunting Bill Omits Firearms Senate Bill 605, presented by the Connecticut General Assembly’s Environment Committee, allows the state’s Department of Environmental Protection to designate areas that would be open to Sunday hunting on private property. The bill only applies to bowhunters, and the legislation, scheduled to be heard on Friday, would need an amendment to include firearms hunters. NSSF urges Connecticut sportsmen and sportswomen to contact the co-chairmen of the committee, Sen. Bill Finch, 800-842-1420, e-mail Finch@senatedems.ct.gov, and Rep. Richard Roy, 800-842-8267, e-mail Richard.Roy@cga.ct.gov, to gain the inclusion of firearms in the Sunday hunting bill.
