Title: Successful Hunter's Heritage Act - WA Legislator Breakdown
Post by: pianoman9701 on April 19, 2012, 02:01:51 PM
US HR 4089 was passed by the House yesterday, the Hunter's Heritage Act. Here's a breakdown of our elected representatives and how they voted:

Washington H.R. 4089 Vote
Posted on April 18, 2012
Representative   Vote
Norman D. Dicks (D-WA)   Nay
Rick Larsen (D-WA)   Nay
Jim McDermott (D-WA)   Nay
Adam Smith (D-WA)   Nay
Doc Hastings (R-WA)   Yea
Jamie Herrera Beutler (R-WA)   Yea
Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA)   Yea
David G. Reichert (R-WA)   Yea
Reid Ribble (R-WA)   Yea


As you can see, this vote went completely along party lines from our state and we should all remember that when it's time to vote in November. The Ds do not support your hunting privileges or your 2nd Amendment rights. Get rid of as many as you can.

Well, I just love her.  She's a super-cutie, she's sharp as a tack, and she's not afraid to ruffle a few feathers. Please let her know I'm a huge fan and will support her as much as I'm able. :tup:

And by the way, how the heck do you pronounce her last name now? Like Butler, Butte-ler, Bait-ler, which is it, please?

So how is using lead more beneficial. If your concerned with only your pocket book then I guess it for you. But look at the overall scheme on how it effect wildlife. We have eliminated it from paints ect... And hunting og certain Natn'l parks is not Conservation in my book? I think they should pass the polar bear part but just not sure about the rest. Thoughts??

Lead has very little effect on wildlife. But if you give an inch be ready for them to take a mile.

Well, those observing the trumpeter swan would disagree. There has definitely been an impact on the swans. So, there's a difference between using lead shot for waterfowl and using lead bullets for game. And, there's a different reason for wanting each banned. One is to protect waterfowl and stop the damage being down to bottom-feeders. The other is designed to restrict gun use and limit our hunting opportunities.

I happened to turn on C-Span when they were debating this and it was all about the "rider" so I thought it was doomed and being used for other purposes.  Glad the real issue of this bill got seperated from the whole buget debate.

We can clearly see who our friends are.  If there is a "Nay" next to their name, they do not appear to support hunting or hunter's rights.  Vote them out of office.

"Butler"  I know she appreciates your support. She was telling me over Easter she was also co sponsoring a bill to remove sea lions below Bonneville that may be a fight we never win but its good to know she is working for the solution I was down around Bonneville over the last few weekends and I watched a sea lion thrash an eight foot sturgeon it looked like a weasel on a rabbit.

There are some good democrats who are friends to hunters, we just need to seek them out and get them elected to replace these anti's.

Dicks is leaving.  Says he's been in long enough (35 years) and time to retire.
