Tribal hunting bills introduced

[bigtex]

Rep Blake made a floor amendment to the enforcement bill. The amendment would:

• Require the Attorney General's Office to create a training module on treaty hunting rights for general authority officers, and what they should do when given a tribal ID.
• Every WDFW Officer would be required to take this course EVERY year and it must be at least 4 hours long

No vehicle access? 

I know they were presenting the bill as "nothing changed" but we all know that a gate on a road is going to restrict vehicle access.  I think that is what most of us are concerned with.

All current and former law enforcement officers who serve in the House voted in oppostion, with the exception of D-Chris Hurst (Enumclaw, Bonney Lake).

I didn't want to read all 13 pages so I don't know if I am repeating anything but I want to put my 2 sense in.  Who should Indians have hunting rights to state land when they don't even pay state taxes and I know for a fact it they get keys to locked gates their wont be a discover pass in the windshield.
