Take Action!!(Big Game Forever)

Sportsmen of America,

Today a monumental step forward was made in the wolf delisting effort. Congressman Denny Rehberg (R) Montana and Congressman Jim Matheson (D) Utah sent the attached “Dear Colleague Letter” [pdf] asking every Congressman to support the American Big Game and Livestock Protection Act H.R. 509 and S.249.

Currently these bills have 30 house and senate cosponsors from 16 states. The letter strongly states, “We strongly feel that Congressional action is the only way to protect our rights to responsibly manage wildlife by avoiding further litigation.” We expect many more cosponsors and “yes” votes in the coming weeks.

The anti-hunting groups are sending thousands of emails to defeat this important legislation. Let’s show our Senators and Congressmen the support of 65,000,000 American Sportsmen. Get in the fight.

It only takes 30 seconds to send an email to your entire Congressional delegation using our automated system. Its quick, its easy and its free. Simply visit http://biggameforever.org/takeaction and click on the button “Take Action.” With some basic information, the system will automatically email your representatives in Congress.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

   First response back from last week.. I'm sure she will ignore when it comes to a vote





 

Thank you for contacting me regarding S.249, a bill to amend the Endangered Species Act of 1973 to provide that Act shall not apply to any gray wolf (Canis lupus), which is currently pending in the United States Senate.  I appreciate knowing your views on this matter.

 

In the Senate, this legislation falls under the jurisdiction of the Environment and Public Works Committee. While I am not a member of that Committee, I want to assure you that I will be following the progress of this bill and will keep your views in mind if this or related legislation comes before the full Senate for consideration.

 

Again, thank you for contacting me.  I hope you will continue to keep in touch.

Sincerely,

Patty Murray

Thanks for posting the response you recieved. I am not holding my breath for anything good from Murray, but if enough people send messages it will be hard for her to ignore. Glad to see lots of guys doing this...  :twocents:
