Montana HB - 462: Worth your time Marijuana Taxes & Access
In the world of constructive input, is raising the tax an option vs reappropriating the funds? -
Montana HB - 462: Worth your time Marijuana Taxes & Access
I'm confused here Ben. Is Hopkins saying that we're essentially crying over spilt milk because of HB701? I just skimmed all of 701 and it still shows 20% to habitat. Help understand because he seems almost to be saying what's done is done with regard to changes in the marijuana laws (laws... -

Which is going to make bridge building all that much harder. Lets face it, he states in his testimony that UPOM members believe FWP is failing at managing the resource to objective. Welp, they have the land and the resource. We have the licenses and the tools. I still believe Block... -

I'm afraid a C+ in 10th grade biology won't satisfy the 5 year bio requirement. -

I'd rather win a cup of coffee with you and Ben. Honestly though, there are some big rocks to move and yet we're dealing with piddly dumb stuff (which is to your point). These are the rocks that I want to move... a) deploy this $170M ASAP b) formally legalize corner crossing c) resolve... -

I have a bad feeling the money in that account, deployable or not, is going to be the weapon used against us at just about every corner this session. We're going to hear "FWP can afford it" on the additional NR discounted tags, free super tag draws, and defunding Habitat Montana. -

Problems arise on both sides of the funding coin obviously. If the money sits for any length of time, our legislators feel empowered to make poor decisions. Heck, the state of Montana should pay me to hunt and maybe throw in a box of ammo so I can sight in my gun. Point being, while its nice... -

Interesting. @Eric Albus I believe you're on the FWP land committee, correct? Any inside detail as to why this money hasn't been deployed? -

It is sad. If a change is to be made, then it would only make sense to make weed illegal again. then put it back on the ballot for legalization with the new set of benefiting budget items. Obviously not practical, nor probable, but anything less feels shady. I do want to understand the... -

Here's the link to the bill.... https://leg.mt.gov/bills/2023/billpdf/LC2448.pdf @Ben Lamb, there seems to be a notion by our legislators that FWP is sitting on $170M. I'm guessing this legislator believes that to be true and is thus attempting to funnel funds away from FWP. It's the only... -
Draft out on "Revise FWP super tag program laws"
Slightly off topic, but last year I got 6 buddies to buy their M,S,G,E,D super tags and then drop $10 / hunter into a kitty. The hunter with the cumulative lowest drawing position across the 5 species won the pot. Hoping to get enough guys this go around that someone gets their in-state... -
Draft out on "Revise FWP super tag program laws"
Seems odd to me. Yes, there's the potential loss of revenue, but why dilute the odds of winning by flooding the pool with free entries? I'm agitated by this death by a 1,000 paper cuts state legislature. -
Draft out on "Revise FWP super tag program laws"
Historically, I buy my sportsman w/ bear plus one super tag draw for each of the following; elk, deer, moose, sheep, and goat. So what I'm understanding is that I will automagically be entered into the moose, sheep, and goat drawings just by purchasing my sportsman w/bear? Is this correct? It... -
FWP Commission to change Gardiner Elk hunting
Looking at the FWP Commission agenda for Feb 22 and I don't see a mention of an HD 313 discussion. Guessing that Tabor and Cebull are still editing it. -
