Fee Increase
« on: June 18, 2025, 03:02:16 PM »
From an email received from WDFW today. Notice where our money will be going? Thank a politician

"As a result of state legislation passed this session, hunting and fishing license fees will increase July 1, 2025, reflecting the first license fee increase since 2011. Signed by Gov. Bob Ferguson on May 17, the bill increases fees by 38% and includes a senior discount for hunting licenses and a senior and disabled veteran discount for license packages (Fish Washington and Get Outdoors).

WDFW did not request this legislation. Although this bill increases revenue for the Department, most of the revenue is used to cover increased costs while the remainder is used to offset State General Fund reductions as a fund swap. The swap is $10.1 million for 2025-27 and $7 million per biennium ongoing thereafter."
