Call your Senators! CPW Commission Confirmation Vote - Delayed Again! Now Tues, 12 Mar!

Wallow said:
That process seems ripe for corruption. The governor could appoint anti-hunters who vote against science-based wildlife management for nearly a year before they get the boot. Why not have the governor make recommendations and then have the senate vote on them before they actually sit on the commission?

Because it’s government, your idea just makes to much logical sense.

Not every state has a full-time legislature and as such, the organs of gov't can't function is the position of director is not filled. Therefore, every constitution of the 50 united states, and our federal one, provides for the appointment of interim directors until such time as the Senate of the United States (in the federal case) or the Senate of a specific state can then fulfill it's duty to advise and consent.


Good luck fellers. Hit them hard, but be polite, and don't use form emails.

I'm not following you. What director position are you talking about?
 
Talked to a few Senators aides on the phone today. One stated the vote would be on Thursday. Entirely possible he was mistaken.
 
So neither one gave away how the senator would vote but both were very willing to listen. I think they have received a heavy volume of calls and emails opposing 2 of the commissioners. Both said they would be talking with members of the Senate Ag and Natural Resources who voted against the appointments to get better insight. I am cautiously optimistic but we need to keep the pressure on. I think the winning talking point now is to encourage Senators on the fence to follow the bipartisan recommendation of the Senate Ag and Natural Resources committee who has taken the time to evaluate these appointments based on the statutory requirements and found that 2 do not meet those requirements.

The second reply I got was an inspired vote based on senate ag insight as well. Seems to be the blanket response so far.
 
Technically you could hand write a letter, scan it to .PDF and send it as an attachment, making it a handwritten email of sorts...

I'll be interested to see how this pans out today, I'm not overly optimistic with our legislature or the governor not doing the same thing over again...
 
This is right on message with the standard drivel from Sam Miller Bruegger, completely devoid of facts and chopped full of propaganda and misinformation. Absolutely no discussion on the statutory requirements and qualifications of the appointees. Blame it on AI, there is a winning strategy.

Am I an extreme anti-wildlife zealot?

Sounds like Spineless Dan Gibbs and the Governor’s henchmen are out in full force trying to strong arm Senators and save these appointments.
