So I’ve yet to have received type of response from Commissioner Smith. No surprise.
Does anyone have a thought on which commissioners could by swayed by reaching out to them?

We’ve (conservation coalition of Washington) have gotten replies from just about all the commissioners as well as have gotten together with all of them in a fireside chat on numerous podcast (Broadside podcast) episodes. I can tell you that there are several of them in our corner, 2 of them that are ‘fence hangers’ and 3 that bonifide anti-hunters and the source of the real problems we are having…they are Rowland, Baker, and Smith. Anderson and Parker, especially Parker as of last meeting, are on our side despite some of the things Anderson has said. Lemkuhl we have seen some changing of his ideas and pointed out facts that I have seen affect some of his recent decisions and comments for the better. Raegan is so damn arrogant, he acts like everyone he talks to is a child and continually brags on all his work in the marine biology field he was in for years. It’s frustrating.  We’ve met with Baker several times and while she responds to us and agrees to meet she refused to be ‘influenced’ by both the evidence or scientific findings. Meredith Rowland and Lorna Smith are HORRIBLE. Rowland has admitted in public meetings she is against hunting and says animals have all the same priveledges and intrinsic value as a human being. Smith is just a fool and the words that come out of her mouth rival that of our illustrious president. Both of them refuse to return any emails from us even in in regard to a simple question.
