The good news is that Ferguson's natural resource advisor looks solid, so there's hope?

We can write to NOT confirm but that usually doesn’t help even with facts.Yes but they can serve without being confirmed for years. There is no requirement they actually be confirmed before taking part in votes.Sent from my SM-G973U using TapatalkQuote from: Humptulips on January 13, 2025, 05:37:14 PMOnly hope is Ferguson withdraws O'Conner's appointment. Not sure if he could do the same for Ragen. I believe he could do this if he wanted to. It will tell us what the next four years will be like, I guess.Just for everyone keeping track, this means that Ferguson needs to pull them back or the senate should reject via hearing by the next Commission meeting- Feb. 13Once they've sat through a meeting, I'd think the likelihood of them going away decreases significantly. It's got to happen quickly. Which isn't helpful in a year with a lot of new legislators, a new governor, and a 12b budget crisisThe good news is that Ferguson's natural resource advisor looks solid, so there's hope?It will not happen before Feb 13. I wouldn't be shocked if it doesn't happen in 2025. There have been commissioners on the commission who sat for several years before being confirmed.Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

They hadn't been confirmed at the time. I don't think any reason was given for booting them. If Insley can do it Freguson can do it.
She asked that the best that attacked her not be harmed? Oh boy.
Any word what groups we should support to fix this legally? WWC? Sportsman Alliance? Other?I am willing to drop some cash to groups that will throw some lawsuits at this to fix it.

Oh boy.Seems a bit problematic, and putting other people at risk to serve her own personal desires. I always feel like so much of the human history was filled with people and children being brutally attacked, killed and eaten by carnivores. Animals don't have a Disneyland identity, they just want to eat whatever they can catch When an animal attacks a person you have to cull it. You may have your own personal desires but zooming out a bit to a larger reality, do you REALLY want a bear with a taste of human blood and a sense that it doesn't have to be wary of humans. A big hungry bear eventually wandering onto a playground and snagging a toddler?
