About this episode

Robbie and Ashlee discuss recent legislation and court rulings affecting wildlife and hunting.

Robbie and Ashlee are back after both respectively traveling the last couple of weeks, with updates on new legislation passed by Congress to ensure lead ammunition and fishing tackle is not banned without scientific justification called the Protecting Access for Hunters and Anglers Act, the 9th Circuit's ruling that a California law banning firearms marketing in a manner attractive to minors is unconstitutional, updates from state legislative sessions winding down, proposed CWD changes in Louisiana, and federal funding issues causing havoc for state wildlife agencies because the federal agencies are not releasing appropriated funds.
