Legislation Filed To Protect Hunting And Fishing
KENTUCKY....
House Speaker Greg Stumbo of Floyd County and state Representative Leslie Combs, D-Pikeville, have filed legislation that would give Kentucky voters the right to include hunting and fishing in the Kentucky Constitution. The amendment they are proposing, and planned to be deliberated in the 2011 regular session, would guarantee that hunting and fishing will never be outlawed in Kentucky unless a statewide vote is held. The amendment would not come before voters until possibly November 2012. Combs says the amendment does not affect current laws involving licenses, seasons or trespassing, but, instead, would ensure hunters and fishermen have the protections they deserve.
