We are pursuing a lawsuit against the Governor

“Signed” 10 days ago by Inslee himself. Sounds like Lorna needs to get her stuff straight.

Go get ‘em, @saylean

Is this real? I'm so confused.

yes https://nwsportsmanmag.com/inslee-declares-this-saturday-hunting-and-fishing-day-in-washington/

Wow. Mind blown. This is a very good thing is it not? At least he acknowledges the importance of hunting and fishing to our states culture.

We have one of those celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Washington State Trappers Association signed by Insley. I doubt if even reads what he is signing.

I would’ve guessed it’s a stamp. Did he actually sign it?

I think you are right about the stamp. I haven't seen it in a couple of years.

Stamped or not, it's his administration signing it and he's not even up for reelection. I feel like this should be a bigger story here.

I wouldn't get all warm and fuzzy about a stamped fishing and hunting day by ole Jay..
It's not the first time he's done it...I think it goes back 7-8 years if I recall...

And isn't he just echoing the federal proclamation....

He could of least made it September 15.
New grouse opening.
Just saying.
Why doesn't he sign or stamp a paper that gives me hunting and fishing rights instead of privilege.
Isn't worth the paper it's written on ,with his name.

I am going to copy this "edict" and distribute it to every hunter ed class I teach and any WDFW meeting I attend. 

[Woodchuck]

Do you think he sent a copy to the commission?

[TriggerMike]

Do you think he sent a copy to the commission?

Everyone here should email it to them.

[GOcougsHunter]

Do you think he sent a copy to the commission?

If not, I think we should all send this individually to the commission.  Lest they forget....

"and last year alone, Wa. sportsmen and women generated nearly $92 billion to support the conservation efforts of WDFW"

$92 billion? last year?
That has to be a mistake,  that would be $92,000 per licensed hunter/angler.

How much gear are you guys buying??

Going with nationwide numbers it seems:

So there is a secretary that makes the commision selections for the governor in his office.  She selects them and he rubber stamps it.  I don't remeber her name but she is anti hunting.  As far as him signing the proclamation for National Hunting and Fishing Day.  He has done that for years.

She is not a secretary. 

[Russ McDonald]

I am not sure what her official title is but what ever it is I believe that she should not be making those choices.

Do you mean to say "she should not be making those choices?"


Maybe she is an avenue that should be looked at a little closer, just to see what and how much influence she has on the process and see if anything odd jumps up, or connections to anti groups and the Commission members individually.

Every string needs pulled to see what unravels I would say...
