Anti-Dove Hunting Bill Introduced in Iowa
Attack on Number One Game Bird Continues
For more than a decade, sportsmen in Iowa fought for the opportunity to pursue North America’s number one game bird - the mourning dove. Last year, the hard work and dedication finally paid off as the Iowa legislature passed Senate File 464 authorizing dove hunting in the state. Now, just months after the first successful dove hunt, anti-hunting activists are pushing to have the season banned.
Calls Needed to Stop Illinois Assault Weapons Ban
House Bill 1294, introduced by Rep. Edward Acevedo (D- Chicago), would prohibit acquiring new firearms that are classified as “assault weapons.” The new definition for “assault weapon” would include many commonly used hunting firearms such as semi-automatic shotguns with a thumbhole stock or a pistol grip.

The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) is howling about the new wolf management initiatives and recent delisting action.
While winter, snow and cold grip some of our nation and force many sportsmen indoors; there are still many opportunities to go hunting.
