We are pursuing a lawsuit against the Governor

[Skyvalhunter]

You can bet if they eliminated any predator hunting at all they would get their objective. Just like no cougar hunting in CA. Or trying to eliminate any wolf hunting

That's why they brought the wolves here in the first place.

I have a thought they migrated here from MT & ID.

Here is the west, central Idaho and Yellowstone, from northern Alberta.  They really do not pay much attention to our state lines.

We want to encourage sportsmen to reach out to all of their current conservation and sportsmen clubs and inform them of the lawsuit. As  many of you know this issue affects more than hunters. A broad base including fishermen will help send the right message. We are grateful for the support of the individual sportsmen that have joined our ranks. Continue to tell your friends to join. Share the first post in this thread, and if your other organizations leadership has questions our President will talk with them. That extra effort will pay dividends as we expand our coalition to bring balance to the commission.

Here is yet another article.

I'll be on a Conservation panel at the Roanoke Conference tomorrow at 945 AM. I will mention WWC's suit and encourage the audience to participate by joining. I will be talking about how the Governor has stacked the commission, against state law, and how this negatively affects the North American Wildlife Conservation Model in our state.

[Skyvalhunter]

Thanks for taking the time.

Last year after the initial spring bear debacle due to numerous vacancies on the commission there were numerous bills in the legislature sponsored by both parties to overhaul or at least look into overhauling the commission.

This year there hasn't been a single commission related bill filed by either party.

Have you heard from the Stevens County cattlemen association?  You should be

What is the desired outcome from the proposed lawsuit?

What is the desired outcome from the proposed lawsuit? 

If you have listened to some of the interviews or read some of the longer articles I think its pretty well laid out. They state a couple of RCWs that are broken and they point to a lawsuit by the builders showing a rough outline of case precedence of the Governor breaking the law and a remedy. In the case of the Builders suit they got to kick off 2 people on the building commission hand pick 2 and get paid for their trouble.

How would I roll it out? Well I would bounce about 4 of these jokers off the commission. The governor did not consult ANY sportsmen group on them. The Commercial fishermen do not have a representative which would need a to change. Also some kind of frame work for appointments revolving around consulting and the distribution stated in the RCWs they point out, and I think Ive heard of 3 that apply.

I don’t see that happening, or how it would even be possible that it would happen.
Commercial fishing interests have been well represented on the commission.  The commercial fishing guy quit when it was clear that McIsaac was putting commercial fishing interests over anything else as chair of the fish committee.  Now that he is gone I’m sure Thornburn will continue to follow his lead or whoever is next.  Follow the $.
Their is no one representing sport fishermen, which is the main reason the commission was created in the first place.
